Customer Reviews

Product is okay
After ordering this product, I started canning with it and where the handles were attached to the canner, it started to leak water down the side and onto my stove. I sent it back to amazon and got a replacement. Unfortunately, the replacement did the same thing. I then called Back to Basics directly, and they sent me a new one. They said that they had problems with handles leaking a year or so ago. Therefore, Amazon's product is an old product. Since I received the new one, directly from the Company, I have not had any problems with it! The canner fits 7 jars perfectly.

Should be rated as "0" stars
Unless they have redesigned this canner since I originally purchased it, I would not purchase this product again. I can so many quarts and pints of fruit during the summer, that I have two canners. Even though I am very careful with all of my canning equipment, this one is rusting on the lid where the handle is connected by a screw, it leaks water out of the handles on the pot and it rusted on the bottom (inside) when I left the water in it for a couple of hours (while it cooled down). It is easily chipped on the exterior and the specialized lining on the interior is not worth the "hype" since the metal underneath is already exposed and rusting. I found the wire basket--which is included with it--unable to hold wide mouth quarts. There are two positives: 1): the handle on the lid stays cool; 2): the vents on the lid do what they are supposed to do--provided the heat is not turned too high.

Ridged bottom
This canner has a ridged bottom, not a flat bottom, and cannot be used with ceramic (glass) stove tops. Otherwise, it appears to be a well-made product for those with gas or standard electric stove tops.
