 THis is the worst canning product ever! November 18, 2008
I was so excited to get a canner that can do such huge amounts and to upgrade from my $10 thrift store purchase of a presto canner. I have had nothing but trouble.
The first time was actually ok, sadly because that was still within the 30 day return policy. The second time I used it steam was billowing out of the canner. I stopped and fixed that with more petroleum jelly. Apparently has to be applied every time. I recanned the beans the next day and now the lid is stuck on the canner. I was using the handle on top to turn it and it started twisting in my hands and the plastic covering shattered. I am not a strong person, but apparently I was able to bend a metal handle. I have yet to call the company, but the advice I am reading on the internet is to beat it with a mallet. Does not sound gentle to me.
overall I am very very unhappy with this canner. NExt time I will take my parents advice and go with the one from Lehmans.. more expensive but lasted them for years!!!!!!!

 Great Product October 28, 2008

The canner works great. My wife and I bottled 51 pints of chicken that we found on sale for $1.19 per pound instead of paying around $3.00 per pound at the savings club store we shop at. Because of the large capacity of the 30 qt cooker, we were able to cook and preserve the chicken in just a few hours.
I love the fact that the canner/pressure cooker has no seal that will have to be replaced time and again over the years. It sure is nice to have the food we preserved in storage.
This is a great buy that we will enjoy for years tocome.

I am very happy with my purchase. The cooker/canner holds more than enough to can at one time, is very easy to use and very sturdy. I especially like the locking screw knobs as opposed to the old gasket type.

I'm very happy with the cooker. I cooked beef in it and used it for canning. The instructions for both were very easy to follow. When I was researching what cooker to buy, I finally decided to pay more and get the heavy duty cooker that people were reviewing as the one that will last for ever. I've used this product several times, and agree that it will probably last me, my children, and my grandchildren. I've never owned a pressure cooker before this one, so I don't have anything to compare it to, but here's what I love about this one: heavy duty, no seal to replace, made in Milwaukee, capacity for 14 quart jars. I also wanted to challenge a couple of negative reviews I read prior to buying this. I read that the cooker was very heavy. Correct, and I like the heavy duty design. I read that it was hard to clean and handle. Correct, and I like the heavy duty design. I read that the lid sometimes gets stuck. The instructions say to use a screwdriver. I did that and it worked. I read that it cooled very slowly after canning. What I do is release the pressure by turning off the heat and then use a towel to take off the pressure weight. The pressure releases in a minute or two and I can take off the cover immediately after that.
Fabulous piece of equipment! October 8, 2008

This pressure canner is awesome. I am very impressed with its high quality machining and precision parts. This is an heirloom piece. It will last forever. I am new to canning and love this pressure canner. Have loved the whole process of canning and know that this canner does it's job very well. You can not go wrong in purchasing this pressure canner. I can't rave enough!
