- How many jars does the 23-quart Presto hold?
- It holds seven quart jars or about eighteen pint jars per load, depending on jar shape.
- Does it work on an induction cooktop?
- No. The body is aluminum, so it needs a gas, electric coil or ceramic cooktop.

- It is both. It is built for canning low-acid foods and can also be used for pressure cooking.
- What comes in the box?
- The canner, a canning/cooking rack, and an instruction and recipe book.
- Can I get replacement parts?
- Yes. Sealing rings, overpressure plugs, pressure regulators and cover handles are sold separately.
