Hello, I was wondering what you guys think about this pressure cooker, I'm buying mine from wal-mart, and I'm pretty sure it's the same one, it's the same design. It is 10 psi.

The only complaint I would have is that it is too small.
But other then that sure it works.

do you think the fact that it doesn't have a temperature guauge will make it easier to mess up my jars?

I say boo, it only goes up to 10 PSI and its tiny. Buy one off ebay, get one a litter bigger and a little more durable..might be a few bucks more, maybe even the same price..if you plan on doing this for any amount of time, I'd make sure you get one way bigger and research into the better PCs so you dont end up stuck with a shotty PC, then buying another latter down the line as so many do.

save your money 
$180 and it will hold it's value, you'll never look back 

It's worth the wait 
the other one is not bad just SMALL and that can make a difference.

i totally agree on this. every pressure cooker i have come accross has gone to 15 psi. even my first one i bought at walmart and it's a mirro but it still hits 15 psi.
if you are going to be doing a lot of growing thene invest in one of these.

yeah, you're wasting your money. i just got a 22 quart PC off of ebay yesterday for 55bucks with shipping. Maybe less if i drop it down to first class. Anyways, heed the advice of everyone here. You will need 15psi. You will want larger capacity. Oh, off subject i know. But does anyone know if with a ball type psi indicator if its easier to screw up spawn bags? My smaller 12 quart mirro melted my spawn bag. I'm assuming because i left my stove eye on High-9 the entire 2 hours....? Yeah, i thought it was funny too.
