Easy to use. Although taking the lid off sometimes takes a little nudge here and there it is not a big problem.
This size is heavy and could not handle any size bigger. I like canning tomatoes because I do not have to add lemon or citric acid to the tomatoes which sometimes causes having to add more salt in food recipes.
We stepped us usage of the canner as not to have to buy another freezer with the cost of electricity etc.
We have a small garden by some standards but during peak it produces much more than we can eat at a time.
An All American Pressure Canner is a top of the line canner. They offer several sizes for different size jobs.
A great investment, perfect for the serious canner.
