Ball Canning Utensil Kit 3.8 5 6 6
This is the first set I have bought. This set is great for a beginner. The plastic is a little cheap but all in all does the job. Jar lifter seems to be of better quality. I would buy it again. 08/04/2011
Adequate quality, probably won't last a long time This is a decent starter set. The funnel is plastic and doesn't appear to be very durable. The jar tongs are lightweight and work fine but I can see them wearing out a lot faster than others I've seen sold separately that are much sturdier and better built. The price is competitive compared to other starter canning sets that I saw at Stockman's, Target and even Amazon.I opted to purchase this set because it was competitively priced and didn't contain the jar opener tool. That tool would be something I wouldn't use and didn't want to spend money on. I'm giving canning a try and wasn't sure if it was something I would do often, so a less expensive set of tools was just what I was looking for. 08/03/2011
Great Set I got this set for my first attempt at making jam. It worked wonderfully and had everything I needed. Great starter set for the price! 08/08/2011
Great kit for home canning I love this kit! I began canning for the first time this year. I had a jar lifter but the items in this kit make things so easy. The bubble remover has a convenient head-space gauge that is really helpful for those of us who are spatially challenged. I liked the lid wand too... the magnet is strong enough to lift 2 of the lids from the hot water and it is much easier to use than a pair of tongs. 10/02/2011
