Product Description

Ball Wide Mouth Glass Preserving Jars

Pint (16-Ounce) Jars - Set of 12

Ball Wide Mouth Pint (16-Ounce) Glass Preserving Jars are ideal for fresh preserving recipes such as salsas, syrups, sauces, fruits and vegetables. These famous glass jars and closures go beyond fresh preserving to help you with serving, creative décor, and gift giving. The 16 ounce measurement is when the jar is filled to the very top.

Ball Canning Jars & Lids

It's easy to show your creation in its best possible light.

When it comes to canning, there's nothing more important than a quality seal. It ensures that no oxygen gets into the canning jar after processing and that your food will remain preserved just the way you created it.

Ball Brands of Fresh Preserving Canning Lids have been crafted for quality in the U.S. for more than 125 years. Ball Jar's manufacturing facility in Muncie, Indiana, produces each lid with a custom, time-tested sealing compound with an underside coating so that the natural acids in your food will not react with the lid.

You can trust that each jar is every bit as genuine as the creation inside it.

Mason Jars - Useful As Always

Reviewed in the United States on December 2, 2015

Verified Purchase

I bought these for the specific use of making multiple breakfast smoothies at a time to freeze for the upcoming 10 or so days. They have been perfect for that in the two months I have had them and have proven themselves useful beyond that.

In regards to the smoothies, the first thing I noticed is that the freezer fill line is only a hair over 12oz. This was great for me as I tend to make calorie rich smoothies that are too large and 12oz is really an adequate amount for breakfast. If you're looking to freeze more fluid than that, these will explode so you should find a larger size.

The obvious other uses have been storing sauces and leftovers. The surprise use of these have really been beverages, specifically... beer! They perfectly hold 12oz or 16oz beers. They're also wide throughout and are easier to clean than pint glasses with my larger hands. That and I'd rather my guests drop a $1.50 mason jar rather than one of my nicer pint glasses when things get just a little bit sloppier.

Pros:
- Haven't broken a single one yet. They're doing their job in the freezer and have held it together during minor drops.
- 12oz freezer line. Also a con depending on your needs.
- Wide mouth is easy to clean.
- Generally nice to have more glassware around when needed for drinks and other uses.
- Rubber lining under lid reassures me that it won't spill even when not overly tightened.

Cons:
- 12oz freezer line. Also a pro depending on your needs.
- Lids will accumulate a little rust if not dried thoroughly. Has thus far wiped off easily but if neglected could be an issue.
- Lids are pretty light and thin. Once again, neglect could lead to squashing or bending a lid by accident. Would be annoying to have to only replace one or two. Would be nice if they came with a couple extras.

Overall, if a few of these get lost/broken in the everyday use, I'll buy more. Simple as that.

Hammer of Truth

Excellent quality

Reviewed in the United States on May 14, 2015

Verified Purchase

I purchased these jars because I had heard so much about the dangers of storing my food in plastic containers and the possibility that the plastic could lead to dangerous chemicals into the food that I was storing into it and these things could cause cancer in the long run.
I did not expect to be so happy with the actual performance of the jar. I was able to freeze food in these jars for weeks on end without any frostbite or freezer burn taking place. I also found that when I stored food in these jars even in the normal refrigerator that the food would last longer than it would if I were to store food in plastic containers.
I was extremely happy with the fact that the metallic coverings off the jars and never rested and I have been using these jars for over one year now and I have been using them very regularly. I did not expect that for the price I paid for these jars I would get such excellent quality jars which would last me far longer than any plastic containers I have ever used. The upside to this job is that it does not hold the orders of whatever you storing it, it washes clean and quickly and easily and is dishwasher safe.
On my next visit to the United States I plan to purchase myself to more sets of these jars and throw on my plastic containers away. I would highly recommend the purchase of these jars to anyone

These are great jars!

Reviewed in the United States on September 6, 2016

Verified Purchase

I'm really going to review jars. Yep, jars. I don't use glass jars for canning but keep them to store items that come in plastic or to freeze homemade soups, juices, etc. They are also great for certain leftovers. I was running low on pint jars so ordered these thinking most jars would be the same from one brand to another except for slight esthetics. That is the usual situation anyway but these jars are nice. They have ounce markings on one side and a pretty floral design etched into the glass on the other side. Much prettier than a plain jar. They are as thick and sturdy as any other glass jar. Wide mouth jars (regardless of brand) are much easier to load, unload and to wash as well. I am so pleased that these Bell jars have a little personality. The price was decent too and with prime shipping they arrived unbroken in two days. If you need a box full of pretty jars, these are highly recommended. I sure hope amazon com continues to sell this brand.

How to avoid plastics in the microwave!

Reviewed in the United States on November 25, 2015

Verified Purchase

Every week I make a pot of soup, and I bought these jars to get away from plastic containers. I fill leaving at least an inch from the top, and put lids on for storage in the refrigerator. But the great thing is the soup can be heated in the microwave, no plastics! It's pretty well understood now that heating up plastic containers of food in the microwave may not be wise, so these help you avoid that, and they also don't become trash. I bought the white plastic lids in the past for a different set of jars, and I'll be using those in the refrigerator, but not the microwave, obviously. The metal lids rust, that's why I bought the white lids. I might give the metal ones to a friend who puts up jams every year. These jars are also good for freezing portions, but leave the lid loose until the food is frozen because of expansion, then tighten the lid. I like glass, it's clean, washable, and recyclable, dishwasher friendly, and no toxic stuff permeating food, like with plastics. If you take lunch to work, these would be great, you could heat your meal in the lunchroom microwave, and enjoy.

My wife at the time wanted to get into canning. Got this for here along with other canning items after I built her a garden. She decided gardening and canning was not for her before she ever used them. I used the jars around the shop and they were fine as regular containers.

Arrived quickly, I was worried that they might be damaged in transit but they were packed super well! Exactly as described. If you're curious, these can be frozen and they are the type to have the "freeze fill line" marked near the top! I'll be honest I had only assumed that all jars could be used in the freezer but after googling I find that not to be the case! The freeze fill line shows you how much liquid can be put in a jar and frozen without the jar exploding :) I also bought some plastic caps to use and now I use these jars for literally everything.. Water/smoothie bottles, salad jars, dry storage, freezer jars for soup and smoothies.. They are perfect!
