Reviews around glass (5.00 of 5)

  • I've tried twice so far consists only friend that is able to be used on a glass top stove I met before asset attempted against third or fourth time until I get one that is it broken on arrival.
  • I was able to use it on my glass top stove, and I appreciate that.
  • Pros: Since its made from aluminum, its relatively light weight and is able to be used on a glass top stove
  • please do check your glass top stove for weight restrictions, i think i cracked mine using it for water bath.
  • I use it on my glass-top stove with no problems, but check with your stoves manufacturer.

Reviews around price (4.67 of 5)

  • Great price point for someone that hasn't used pressure cookers before and was looking to get into canning.
  • For anyone looking for a pressure canner at a decent price and with a large capacity and versatility look no further.
  • Exactly as described, no issues works great at a reasonable price
  • I dislike the fact that it is cheap aluminum and not stronger stainless steel for that price, a much higher price due to the shipping to France
  • Simply a satisfying, practical, quality item at a very reasonable price.

Reviews around pressure (4.66 of 5)

  • I pressure can everything from the garden in it and love it.
  • I love using a gauge instead of a weight for proper pressure.
  • The only negative thing about this canner is that it is hard to keep the pressure gauge at the right pressure
  • It has a pressure gauge, so it's easy to can with the right pressure.
  • Product arrived with faulty pressure guage

Reviews around cooker (4.64 of 5)

  • I would definitely recommend this pressure cooker to anyone needing one.
  • Just a bigger, better version with a pressure dial that will sure be useful.'After using this for a while, I think it's a really good pressure cooker
  • If you are looking for a simplistic, no frills, pressure canner/cooker then you would be remiss not to strongly consider this product.
  • After only 2 uses, the part that says “top” leaks pressure and the cooker no longer holds anything over 10 psi.
  • Great beginner pressure canner / cooker however, I should have shopped

Reviews around size (4.16 of 5)

  • this is the right size as for the time involved for the typical 10+ pints i process.
  • I love to can meat and veggies and this pressure cooker was the perfect size for quick turnaround time.
  • I love this size as I can double stack pint jars for canning!
  • Dislike the size
  • Its large size and nice flat rack that comes with it means good number of jars that don't bounce around during the process.

Reviews around lock (1.54 of 5)

  • However, even though the vent locks, it began to leak steam in my last batch.
  • On my first try,the seal and vent/lock would not activate
  • The last time, the bottom screw on the air vent/cover lock jiggled itself loose and fell off while under 11 lbs of pressure.
  • The lid locks on very securely and the built in safety valve along with the pressure lock makes it very safe.
  • The vent lock simply would not activate,and the Pressure gauge was incomplete (missing small gasket).This is obviously too late for any kind of return ,so I am just stuck with an overpriced aluminum pot!!I have videos and pictures showing the steam and all water escaping from the vent lock,but never building pressure
