So glad I purchased!!

I am brand new to canning and was worried about pressure canning especially. The purchase of my 12 qt was such a good choice. It’s very easy to use, I keep my one page instructions out and have had nooo trouble at all. I’m super happy with this purchase!
This purchase has been a game changer for me. It is so pretty that I leave it on the counter and pretty much use it every week. It is so quiet and does not heat up my kitchen.
Love the Presto Digital!!! This year has been my 4th canning season using this canner and I love the ease of use with the Presto Digital. Easy to follow along instructions and it's just the right size for almost all of my canning needs. I'm a senior and found the my other canners were heavy to lift, with the Presto Digital I don't have to worry about that - plus I don't have to "babysit" the canner to make sure in maintains pressure if pressure canning. Love that it does both water bath and pressure canning. It takes up little space on my shelf compared to the other canners I have. My only complaint is, being in Canada it isn't covered by any warranties. Thankfully I have not had a speck of trouble with my canner through the 4 seasons I've used it - but to not have any warranties was somewhat alarming for a product of this price. Other American companies offer warranties. I hope continued years of use with this wonderful canner since I use it so much!!
Been using this almost a year, talked my SIL into one as well. If you're looking for a time-saver this isn't it. It really is the greatest canner that I've ever tried and I am 63 years old, been canning for a long time
I’ve had my Presto digital pressure canner 12quart for a little over a week and have canned: potatoes, pork, beef and chicken. This is my first digital canner and I absolutely LOVE it! I moved to a house that has an electric stovetop so I haven’t been able to can for a couple years now I’m happy to say I’m happily canning again. This is a game changer.
For some reason the regulator continually let steam out but still counted down for red peppers. It didn’t do that for the tomatoes or the meat. I thought it was just regulating for temperature control and did count down in “canning” mode after a while. But now I’m back to canning tomato’s and the regulator is letting steam out after the pressure valve went up for more than 30 minutes. It’s not counting down and no error code. Some of the black coating has been coming off the bottom and corners when I wash it but it is still black and looks ok. But could that be why the regulator keeps letting steam out. I’m at a loss. I will shut it down and clean the regulator. Could it be something else? Jane

Double check to see if you pushed the advance arrow on your canner. There could be something wrong with your regulator instead. We'll talk to you about the peeling pot as well. Regardless, call us. We'll get some more information from you and troubleshoot. We will make sure your canner is in working condition! Call 1-800-877-0441; we're available weekdays, 8-4 CT.
Best gift I ever received! This does water canning and pressure canning with ease. It tells you what steps to take and alerts you to know when action is required or if your canning is complete. This device takes that guesswork out of canning.
