The positives:
- Cooks a lot of food at once
- Camper friendly
- Comes with a cloth bag
- Not hard to clean up (heat up about a gallon of water with the lid on for ten minutes to loosen up the stuck food on the inside)
- The clamp down lid (tip overs won't ruin your meal)
- The silicone gasket is heavy and should last a long time
- It is unique (looks cool)
The negatives:
- Fairly expensive for an aluminum pot
- Needs some king of temperature gauge
- Needs a reinforced bottom to prevent burning of food on the bottom (I would not use without the CanCooker racks)
- Should come with the racks

Can anyone explain how this thing wouldn't build up twenty five pounds pressure and blow the wall out of your kitchen and kill you and whoever else was in your kitchen.
I worked for a ASME pressure vessel manufacturer for ten years (Groen) and this thing is a bomb waiting to explode. No vent and no pressure relief valve? It might take ten or fifteen pounds before exploding. Shoot, it might blow at five for that matter. And on a burner with water in the pot, whatever the explosion pressure is, it would be reached in a few minutes.
