Seems priced pretty reasonably. 4 quart might be a bit small, but I just want something to fit 4 or 5 1/2 pint jars in.

get one that can hold quart jars upright. You will thank me later. walmart sells a presto one for like 60 bucks that can hold 7 quart jars.

Hmm. Well if I want to only hold like 5 or so 1/2 pint jars(the wide mouth ones) what size pressure cooker do you suggest?

Dr.Alkaline, as dirty has suggested go for something that will hold quart jars. You won't regret it in the future, as you're not gonna always want to do BRF cakes.. The 23 quart presto pc on amazon is awesome for the price.

Yeah I folded and got the 16 quart presto from my local walmart. Gave it a test run with just water no jars, works great!

I agree. Buy one that holds quart jars. It will be the best thing you ever did.
