I think Jackie Clay-Backwoods Home Magazine-has used these. I'll let you know how they work.

The rings don't last forever, but seem to be cost effective anyway. They're cheaper at the Tattler website than anywhere else, I believe.Leighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02435811789823712254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1423140573667417407.post-71384733020244271672011-05-16T19:31:10.288-05:002011-05-16T19:31:10.288-05:00I just got some Tatter Lids for Christmas -- haven...I just got some Tatter Lids for Christmas -- haven't used them yet.

Hoping to hear yet from someone who has used them. But, ya know, if the company's been in business since the 70s, they must WORK, right? A box of the rings only on their website lists for $2.50 a dozen.<br /><br />APG - Stay tuned . . . hopefully someone will let us know how they like them!<br /><br />Erin - Nope, 'twasn't me asking about them last year. Whoever it was, please speak up! What will I be canning this year? Well, maybe jam from our berry crops, or if I can get my usual apples in the fall, applesauce for sure. We loves our applesauce!Mama Peahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03649357184167949247noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1423140573667417407.post-58014625818088172692011-05-16T15:13:52.336-05:002011-05-16T15:13:52.336-05:00I seem to remember you pondering this publicly las...I seem to remember you pondering this publicly last year too, LOL and anxiously awaiting to hear from anyone - or was that Patty? Someone "up there" was "talking about something" LOL. No experience here, I'm the same way as Jane, I ponder and release :) Like I've been doing for 3 months about buying a potato masher... I look at the cheap one for 5.99 every shopping trip, put it in the cart, then decide no, I don't have arthritis so I'll keep mashing with a wooden spoon or find one at a thrift shop LOL! And HEY, just what are you canning in your "no-garden garden" this year anyways? :)Erinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06916896512933101955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1423140573667417407.post-61457138976905208982011-05-16T14:09:29.121-05:002011-05-16T14:09:29.121-05:00I would love to hear from others who use them also...I would love to hear from others who use them also.

I would hate to go to all the trouble and the food spoil. But it does look like the rubber part is replaceable and they were very reasonably priced at Lehmans when I looked at them (like $4 for a box of the rubber rings). I like the fact the lid is BPA free and regular canning lids are not.So I hope someone has a review.Jane @ Hard Work Homesteadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02905658082120445313noreply@blogger.com
