I decided to try to preserve some of our extraordinarily bountiful harvest of Mission figs this year. My mom was out of town, and that meant I had to learn all by myself.
I read up on the internet about what process was involved, what I needed, recipe basics, etc. I settled on this as a basic starter kit. Had everything I still needed, very inexpensive. I felt if canning turned out to be a waste of time, at least I wasn't going to be wasting a lot of money.
As it turns out, this kit wasn't a cheapo little kit. All of the accessories worked very well, were sturdy. I managed to make 54 pint sized jars of fig preserves before I quit with half the fruit still on the bush (yes, bush -- it's still a baby.) Everything held up very well. Will look for this brand when I expand my canning to include the inserts for the pots.

Very, very disappointed!
Rubber on Jar lifter shredded with the first jar. Magnet did not lift jar lids without a number of tries, and fell out on the first day of use. I wish that I had ordered a better quality set.
