Ball Regular Mason Canning Jar 1 Pt., Case of 12 Overviews

Ball canning jars have set the standard for decades. Home preservers have used them for everything from apple cider jelly to pickled okra to gourmet salsas.



Customer Review


A good quality canning jar can be used over and over again as long as you don't break it or chip the sealing edge. I have used mayonnaise and jelly jars from the store, but I've had more breakage with those because they are slightly thinner glass and weren't designed for home canning. I can attest to the dismay at the loss of perfectly good food due to breakage of the jars in the pressure canner.

If you garden, or if you buy food in volume at sale prices, home canning, freezing, or drying make perfectly good sense. Whether you use quarts or pints is up to you. I use both sizes, and the Ball Mason Canning Jars are perfect for all. (Be careful freezing, because overfilling can cause breakage even of the best jars.)

Having said that, I do not recommend purchasing jars online unless the price is extremely low or the shipping is free, because shipping costs can be horrendous. Unless you have no alternative, buy them locally. (There may be some exceptions: If you are shopping online for a company that has a local outlet, they may ship to that outlet for free and you can pick them up yourself.)

I had some concerns about the quality after reading some of the other reviews, but mine were shipped quickly, and of fine quality. I have no complaints at all.

If your a health freak and love making fresh juice...this is the product you'll want.

My juice stays so fresh! Great seal of freshness on these jars, I mean they have been around for ages!
