Without washer and nut with special thread

This item will be delivered without nut and washer. I wasn't aware of that when I bought this fee. I knew it was from China but at least I thought the threads would be metric. They're not standardized, of course they're fine, but they're not metric, they're something else. I've looked at several places in the city I live in but haven't found anything so far. So now I'm here with a product that I can't use yet. I didn't want to do anything, so I didn't really think it wouldn't work. But the one…

Pros
  • Done
Cons
  • Some disadvantages

The thread differs from the original, so the nut and washer do not fit.

It turned out to be an exact replacement for my old gauge. However, having prepared 7 liters of beets for canning, I remembered that I had to change the pressure gauge. I took a new one and was very upset. The kit did not include its own washer and nut. Although the jig is identical to the old one, it has a different thread on the bolt and the original nut and washer will not fit. Had to use an old broken sensor on my turnips so they don't go to waste and hope for the best. Get it back as soon…

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Annoys me

Does NOT fit all Presto models!

The top line of the product description said "fits all Presto cans" so I didn't hesitate to order it. There was no nut to screw onto the lid of the can and the nut from my old gauge didn't fit. I went to about 5 different stores to find the right nut. When I finally got a chance to use the pressure gauge, steam got in and the pressure didn't go above 5. Unfortunately I waited too long to use it and couldn't return it. Research ALL before you buy this one! There are various sensors that come…

Pros
  • Finally bought it
Cons
  • Appearance

The third time wasn't magic for that.

UPDATED REVIEW - 3rd order/replacement/exchange and 3rd time test failed at my county office. Completely new out of the box. Maybe they're from a bad batch, aren't they? I don't know, but other sensors have been tried and tested on other people, so we're pretty sure it's not the expansion office's test device that's at fault, just the sensor. Revain was great at bringing back the first two. I hope to get a refund and not an exchange for this item. -- The item arrived defective - the County…

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Not as thick as other selections
