Review: The BEST canner I've used in 30 years - I got this small canner because I do a LOT of canning and always seemed to have a stray five or six jars that didn't fit in the last big canner load. My other canner is a large Presto pressure canner. I've been happy with it but have been eyeing these marvelous All-American models because they don't require gaskets and they have a weight plus the gauge that lets you know when pressure goes back to zero. This heavy pot uses bakelight handles on sturdy wingnuts to keep the lid closed. I have to say that using my Presto canner and this one side by side, the All-American gained pressure faster and also went back to zero faster than the Presto. The All-American canners don't waste time building pressure because they don't have to deal with handle locks and pressure points that lose steam while the pressure builds up to speed. I love this small canner so much, I'm going to get a larger one, too. They are totally worth the price. I am thrilled with the weighty feel of the canner, and with its construction. Spare parts are available. It should be noted that it IS heavy. However, I always fill my jars next to the stove and just put them in the pot. I never try to lift the pot and the jars. For small batches or the overage of a large batch, this size pot fits the bill. It is small enough to go next to a large canner so you can run two at once where two large ones would not fit on the stove. It holds seven pint jars or four quart jars. It can also double as a pressure cooker. I work at a farm and get free produce so I really put my canners through their paces. I am wishing now that I had gotten an All-American sooner. Tomorrow, I'm picking a few bushels of tomatoes for sauce and juice!
Review: Don't spend days in the kitchen - Get the Big One!! - This is an absolutely beautiful Pressure Canner made right here in the USA. After a long while trying to decide which model to get I finally decided on the 41.5 quart. The first thing I did when the UPS driver left was to fill the canner with 19 empty Ball quart jars. They fit perfectly. My mother had an old Mirro pressure canner that would only hold 7 quarts. When she saw it her first comment was how much faster I'd be able to get the canning done. As far as quality goes I don't see how you could get any better. This thing screams American made quality. Every part seems to be heavy duty and the fit and finish are second to none. I think this will be something the family will be fighting over after I'm gone so I guess I better start deciding who I'm going to leave it to in my will. One thing to remember - this pressure canner is huge. You will probably have trouble fitting it on top of the stove in your kitchen unless you pull the stove out in order for the canner to clear the fan. I'll be using a Bayou Classic single burner patio stove outside in the garage when I do my canning. I've seen others do this on youtube and I think it's the way to go with this particular model. This canner weighs 39 pounds empty. It has good handles so if you need help two people could pick this up before you put water and jars in. It's my hope that more younger people get into canning and I think this is the canner to get if you really want to put up a years worth of food without spending a week in the kitchen. ***UPDATE*** 09/07/2014 I have had this pressure canner for two days and I just did my first batch. I canned 24 Ball widemouth PINT jars of pinto beans and ham. The following is my timing list... 1. @ 10:40am I lite the propane gas burner 2. @ 11:04am the first sign of steam appeared (I could have turned up the flame more and reached this point faster) 3. @ 11:12am a steady stream of steam was visible - I let this steady stream go on for 13 minutes which is a little longer than needed before I added the weight. 4. @ 11:24am the gauge was reading 5psi without my adding the weight (10psi setting on the weight at my altitude - your setting may be different) 5. @ 11:25am I put the weight on using the 10psi setting 6. @ 11:28am the pressure reached 10psi 7. @ 11:30am the pressure gauge was reading just over 11psi which is perfect for my altitude - at this point I had to turn down the propane burner so low that the flame was barely able to maintain itself. That means it uses very little propane once it reaches temperature. 8. @ 1:00pm exactly 90 minutes after the pressure gauge was reading 11psi I turned off the gas burner. 9. @ 1:40pm the pressure gauge had returned to 0psi 10. I removed the weight and then carefully removed the lid and placed it on the same towel that I used to put the jars on. It took 3 hours for me to go from lighting the burner and then going back to 0psi after 90 minutes of processing. Not bad at all. All 24 of the jars did perfectly. I did not watch to see how long the contents of the jars continued to boil. I wanted to give out this information about my first experience with this canner because this is all the information I wanted to know before I decided to purchase the model 941. I am extremely happy with this purchase and will be recommending this size pressure canner to everyone.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What if I’m unsure about which size to choose for my needs?**
A: Smaller models like the 10.5-quart are great for everyday cooking and small batches of canning, whereas larger models up to 41.5 quarts are ideal for serious canning enthusiasts who process large quantities of food at once.

**Q: Are these pressure canners compatible with induction cooktops?**
A: No, our pressure canners are not compatible with induction cooktops.

**Q: What if I need to can low-acid foods like meats or seafood? Is every model suitable?**
A: Yes, all sizes are USDA-approved for canning low- and high-acid foods. However, avoid using the 10.5 Qt model for smoked fish due to specific considerations. All other low-acid foods are safe to can in any size.

**Q: How do All American pressure cookers ensure safety during use?**
A: Safety comes first. All models use a durable metal-to-metal seal (no gaskets needed) and include an overpressure release, pressure regulator, and steam gauge for safe, reliable operation.

**Q: What if cleaning and maintenance seem too complex due to the metal-to-metal seal?**
A: The metal-to-metal seal means no gasket to replace—just wipe the surfaces and occasionally check the gauge and vents. It’s simpler to maintain than gasketed models.
