I bought my Presto canner in 2012...10 years ago as I write this. At the time, I wanted to start canning, but didn't have any supplies. I tried to decide whether to buy a regular canner or a pressure canner. After all, this was more expensive. But I also knew that if I started canning, I would want the option to can EVERYTHING. And now, 10 years later, I'm so glad this was what I chose.
It can take up to 7 quart jars at a time. I use it on my glass top stove with no problem. I highly recommend this if you are starting to can!
