Is Nesco worth buying?
Nesco earned a buy verdict on 1 of the 3 Nesco products we compared (33%), well below the 50% average across every brand on the site. 1 is an "it depends": right for a specific buyer, not for everyone. We would skip 1: Nesco Smart Canner and Cooker NPC-9.
Verdicts synthesize independent testing and long-term owner reports; we do not run a lab and never take review units. Each product below links to the comparison it was judged in. How we review.

The Best Pressure Canners: 4 Compared (and One to Skip) · Home & Kitchen
Nesco Smart Canner and Cooker NPC-9
A 9.5-quart electric multi-cooker with canning buttons on the front panel, which is precisely the appliance class NCHFP says it does not support for USDA low-acid processes.
Why we skip it: NCHFP states it does not support the use of USDA canning processes in electric multi-cooker appliances carrying canning or steam canning buttons, because the pressure processes were developed for stovetop canners.
