Pressure canners cast and machined in Manitowoc, Wisconsin since 1930
✅ Made in USA
Where All American products are made
Manitowoc, Wisconsin
Every canner is cast from heavy-gauge aluminum and precision-machined in-house at Wisconsin Aluminum Foundry, rather than assembled from outsourced parts.
The gasket-free seal
Positive-action clamping locks draw the lid onto a machined rim to form a steam-tight seal with no rubber gasket — nothing to dry out, crack or replace years later.
Built to be handed down
The line is backed by a lifetime warranty, and it is one of the longest continuously produced made-in-USA cookware lines in the country.
All American pressure cookers and canners are manufactured by Wisconsin Aluminum Foundry in Manitowoc, Wisconsin, and have been since 1930.
The story
Wisconsin Aluminum Foundry was founded in Manitowoc in 1909. In 1930 it introduced the first All American pressure cookers, which quickly set a new industry standard for quality and durability.
The design decision that still defines the brand is what it leaves out. Instead of a rubber gasket, All American uses a precision-machined metal-to-metal sealing system: positive-action clamping locks pull the lid down onto a machined rim to form a steam-tight seal. There is no gasket to dry out, crack or replace — which is why these canners are routinely handed down rather than replaced.
More than ninety years later, All American is still made in the same Wisconsin community, cast from heavy-gauge aluminum and machined in-house, and still backed by a lifetime warranty.
Why they matter
All American represents American manufacturing at its most durable: a product families buy once and hand down for generations.
Every canner supports skilled foundry and machining jobs in Wisconsin and keeps a piece of American home-canning heritage alive.
In a kitchenware aisle where almost everything is imported and gasket-dependent, a cast-aluminum canner that outlives its owner is a genuinely different proposition.
