This was my very first pressure canner! It was gifted to me by my mom for Christmas while I was in college. It is the perfect sized canner for just starting out and if you plan on preserving single or small batches on your stovetop. It holds 7 quarts, up to 10 pints and 13 half-pint jars.
The Presto 01755 16-quart pressure canner has many features and benefits:
- Lighter weight than the 23-quart pressure canner
- The easy-to-read gauge automatically registers a complete range of processing pressures.
- Air vent/cover lock allows pressure to build up only when the cover is closed properly and prevents the cover from opening until pressure is safely reduced.
- Doubles as a water bath canner* for preserving fruits, jams, jellies, pickles and salsas.
- Designed for easy, confident home pressure canning.
- Works on gas, electric, and Smooth-top ranges.
- Deluxe pressure dial gauge registers precise processing pressures, which is especially important in high altitude areas.
- Air vent/cover lock allows pressure to build only when the cover is closed properly and prevents the cover from being opened until pressure is safely reduced.
- Handy as a large capacity pressure cooker for meats, poultry, soups, and desserts.
Presto Canners are constructed of extra-strong aluminum and are suitable for use on regular and smooth-top ranges. Includes cooking/canning rack and complete instruction and recipe book.

My online store is now an Amazon Affiliate storefront. The small commissions I earn will not cost you anything but will help me offset my costs so I may continue to create new and exciting canning recipes. Thank you for your continued support.
