Default Re: lids

I just bought a bunch of these a few months ago. I haven't used them yet, but I have a friend who is a big-time canner, and she recommended them to me. She's been using them for about five years, and she says you get about 4-5 uses out of the rubber rings before you have to replace them. Replacing the rubber rings every few years is a lot cheaper than buying new lids every two years (I can get about two uses out of the standard lids before the suction goes bad). Not to mention regular lids are not BPA-free.

Anyway, my friend highly recommended them. I can't wait to use mine this year!
