Great jars, perfect for storing spices and canning small amounts
I bought these to store smaller amounts of spices. (I keep my larger bulk spices in quart and 2-quart jars.) These vacuumed very well with my Foodsaver and were just the right size for stacking in my cupboard. I know the spices I stored in them will maintain their potency. In addition, since they're Kerr canning jars, I know they'll hold up to vacuum pressure and last for years.

    I loved these. Perfect solution for my homemade yogurt. While I don't recommend doing this, after falling off my counter on a tile floor it just bounced and didn't even chip. Totally impressed since everything else has shattered. I say this to demonstrate how thick the glass is so I expect they will hold up. I have used them for 2 months about 4 times; sterilizing them and storing in refrigerator so high quality and would purchase again.

    Love these. Got the bormioli wide mouth one piece reusable lids and now we use them for so many things. They are perfect for packing lunches - veggies, hummus, rice anything that you want to portion to one cup or less to help avoid overeating. With the plastic lids we got you can even reheat in a microwave as long as you loosen the lid and just set it on...don't screw the lid on or it will break.

    Reviewed in the United States on May 27, 2021
    Verified Purchase
    I use canning jars for everything. I made the mistake of trying to order a generic brand and learned my lesson. Went right back to Kerr. I store leftovers in my jars as they are good to freeze [as long as you don't overfill] and keep everything fresh longer. Hubby discovered they are handy for his storage in the garage. Thus, I find myself always ordering more as I run out in the kitchen. Face wash wipes always dry out before I use the last of the. Upon purchase, I remove from the plastic pouch and put them in a Kerr jar and they last forever and never dry out. That's just one of the many uses. I can always rely on Kerr to advertise correctly and get me the right product.

    i ordered these jars to make my own toothpaste in. They are just the right size for the amount of toothpaste to make in 1 batch. I do not have to dirty another bowl or dish and the process was quite simple with the jars. I could teach a class using the whole flat of jars and then sell them to the class members one at a time and recoup my costs for the toothpaste.
