WB quarts and some incredible upgrades!

Excellent upgrade to the Presto precise canner! I have the smaller version as well and will continue to use but it's clear this one has some upgrades and Presto is actively listening to the people!
Being able to waterbath quarts is a huge plus. When I can on my stove, it takes away space for me being able to do other things such as cook dinner, prep more ingredients etc. The precise gave me the option to not have to use my stove...unless I was WB quarts. The new upgrade in size takes care of that problem and I couldn't be happier! If I'm not using my stove for anything else, it means it's not heating my home and in these last summer days, I'm grateful to not push my AC more than I need too.
The first things I noticed were the hardware upgrades. The inner pot itself seems to have had an upgrade. Smooth, super easy to clean and rinses clean in a matter of seconds. The bottom rack is heavier, better material, and after four batches, still no sign of a chemical reaction to the high temperatures. The power cord is longer than the original version which I appreciate as I have limited outlets where the canner will sit. The pressure valve no longer "snaps" into place but just sits right on the valve making it easier to place and reduce questions and possibilities for damage. Presto also listened to their customers who spoke out regarding the volume of the beeps on the original version and increased this volume. My dog doesn't like it, but it's only a few beeps here and there. I absolutely trust presto with their canning products and can't wait to use this more as the harvest season here progresses. Thank you for these upgrades Presto. Fantastic product!
I would recommend this to a friend!

17 qt PPDC

I've had my 17 qt PPDC now for a couple weeks.
I thought I'd share my thoughts, as others have, for anyone wondering about getting it.
It's stainless on the outside vs black stainless. Either is fine in my kitchen but I like the black stainless more.
It's big for sure, taller and heavier... it's not too heavy for me to pick up, but almost too tall to go under my cabinets that are above my counter.
I've done pickles, peaches, tomato soup in quarts, waterbathed, perfection and all sealed.
Now for the redesigns, personally I love the new regulator that doesn't snap on since I never left mine on anyway. The rack in the lid is gone that held the seal, I like that because I am always bumping the rack in the 12qt. The stainless rack inside is lovely. The cord is longer, I love that. The beep on my new one is in a different key than my old one, but not any louder that I can tell.

It doesn't seem to take any longer to heat up, but the start of boiling and pressure canning does, which makes sense given the amount of space and liquid.
I love it, almost as much as I thought I would, I just can't find enough stuff to WB in quarts.
I'm looking forward to double stacking in PC mode.
I have squatty pints that I do soup in and I'm excited to PC those double stacked.
I hope Presto continues to make awesome products like the PPDC.
