The Presto 01781 is a 23-quart aluminum pressure canner and cooker, the largest size Presto makes. It holds 7 quart jars, 20 pint jars or 24 half-pint jars in one load, and it also works as a boiling water canner for fruit, jam, pickles and salsa. A dial gauge reads the full processing pressure range, which helps at high altitude, and an air vent/cover lock blocks the lid from opening until pressure drops. Owners rate it as a solid, simple canner that heats fast and even; the trade-offs are the weight of a loaded 23-quart pot and a dial gauge that should be checked for accuracy each season.

Owners describe the Presto 01781 as a dependable, easy-to-run canner that holds a big batch and seals reliably. Many praise the gauge and the cover lock for making the process less nerve-racking. Complaints center on its weight and size and on the dial gauge drifting out of calibration over time.
This is a pack of 2 Presto aluminum pressure canner/cookers, model 01781. Each has a 23-quart capacity. It works as a pressure canner for low-acid foods such as vegetables, meats and fish. Pressure canning is the method the USDA recommends for these foods. It also works as a boiling water canner for fruits, jams, jellies, pickles and salsa in half-pint, pint and quart jars.
The gauge registers a full range of processing pressures, which helps at high altitude. An air vent/cover lock lets pressure build only when the cover is closed properly. It keeps the cover from opening until pressure is safely reduced, and it shows visually that there is pressure inside.
The canner is made of extra-strong aluminum for fast, even heating. It can be used on gas, electric and smooth-top ranges. It comes with a cooking/canning rack and an 80-page instruction and recipe book for canning and pressure cooking.
