THe new rack looks like it will last a long time as it is galvanized. Our old one turned into a pile of rust. Looking forward to many years of canning!

I used it twice and it's now covered in rust. Hold out for a stainless steel one. This one is galvanized (theoretically) and (theoretically) won't rust. It rusted up with 2 uses.

Also, when you raise the handles, they are "wider" than the rack itself. Because this rack just fit my pan, there was no way on earth the handles would stay up. I always had to use 2 large paper clips to hold the handles up against the sides of the pan so I could put jars in / remove them.

Held the jars nicely, though. But overall? Definitely look for something else. This was a waste of money.

The item received was just as advertised. Be careful when ordering the diameter to fit into your pressure cooker. I ordered and found the canning rack to be just a "hair" too big for my pressure cooker. I am not returning it due to the shipping cost to return.

I got this canner rack to replace another one. It is a little on the weak looking side, but held up fine to its first use. Is definately made for the bigger jars. It was a little interesting keeping the pint jars completely upright. Its first trip thru the dishwasher was uneventful and clean (no water marks or heat stains). I don't do alot of canning, so this rack will serve my needs just fine.

This perfect for the smaller canning projects up to 1 pt jars, 6 at a time. Too small for anytning larger.

I had boughten a canner from the flea market last year just before canning season but it was missing the rack that lifts the jars out and keeps them from touching the bottom of the pan like your suppose to. so I came on amazon and was searching for one and I came across this one. wasn't sure at first of the size I needed and a friend of mine told me to just measure the top of the pan and take an inch or two off that and it should be right. Well he was right, it worked out great. I didn't think I was going to find the right size for my pan but now I have a canner and have enjoyed all the food from my garden all winter. Definitely saved myself a ton of money there.
