1.0 out of 5 stars JAR LIFTER IS DEFECTIVE July 2, 2012

By Pat in Duncanville

Amazon Verified Purchase

I bought this product from Amazon and received the product practically overnight. Unfortunately, the Jar Lifter had a manufacturing defect that caused the soft coating to slough off after the first use in boiling water. I notified the seller who had Amazon immediately send a replacement at no charge. Unfortunately, the replacement exhibited the same manufacturing defect. It was obvious when the product arrived, before any use at all. My conclusion - don't buy this jar lifter from Amazon until after they clear out all the defective merchandise from their warehouse. Fortunately for me, the seller bent over backward to make it right and they did it so quickly it left my head spinning! I have worked with a lot of Amazon and eBay sellers but by far, this seller is the BEST I have encountered!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great for canning! July 19, 2010

By Discover

This kit is great for people who are just starting to can foods. I did not have any problems with the magnet being too weak... actually it was almost too strong. It would be about impossible to drop a jar when you hold them with the jar lifter. The funnel didn't melt when I used it, but I didn't run boiling water through it either. The bubble popper/headspace tool is very useful for knowing how much liquid to put into the jar, it has markings 1/4 in, 1/2 in, 3/4 in, 1 inch. I didn't need to pop bubbles with it though. My pickle making adventure was successful!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great price and it did the job! May 9, 2009

By J. Bellucci

I'm still fairly new to canning stuff. But when I first started it I thought "heck why do I need these things" trust me...it makes life so much easier! There is a wide mouth funnel which is so nice because they you don't spill the hot jam (or whatever you're making) all over the place and then have to wipe hot jam while you are trying to do everything else. There is a magnet on the end of the stick to help get the jar lids out of the hot water (sooooo much easier then using two forks)...and a jar gripper which is a lot easier to use. I didn't worry if I was going to drop anything I knew it was gripped tightly. So easy to use - good quality and affordable. You don't have to spend a lot of money for it! I got ours at Walmart for 6.40! You can't go wrong!!!
