Customer Review: I have two of these sets for the canning season when both me and my husband get in the act. This set is for my daughter who has decided that canning is a good idea.
Customer Review: I'm happy with these tools. I haven't had any problems with any of them. At the recommendation of my friend who cans a LOT, however, I purchased a separate stainless steel funnel. She says these plastic ones will begin to melt after a few canning sessions.

Comfortable in your hand, and keeps the jars steady when lifting them out of the water and onto your counter. BUY it or... more info
Customer Review: The canner was a holiday gift, and immediately put to use to brine the Christmas turkey. It worked great and held up under freezing temperatures outside, no rusting, no leaks, and just the right size. We'll actually use it for canning as soon as we can!
