Query: Pressure cooker/canner

A novice at canning, I found the setup and assembly pretty straight forward. It is a heavy pot, and works fairly well on our ceramic top stove, although it is slow to reach the 15 pressure that most recipes call for, but that's the stove's fault, not the pot's. I've only canned salsa and pickles so far and everything went without a hitch. As with any other type of cooking procedure, make sure you have everything ready before you begin. I've only used pint jars so far, but hope to make some holiday gifts of half-pints and see how that goes. I have not used it to pressure cook yet, so cannot review that area, but as a canning pot it is very good.
