These lids might deserve a 5 star but the description was inadequate. I purchased them assuming they'd fit a canning jar. They do not. If you want to save a nifty jar from purchased jelly or mustard or whatever, these should be really neat.

The insert that comes with the jars has a more accurate description: "These caps are made to fit jars from the "Twist Off" standard. The twist off standard is a world wide standard that is used for food jars wtih metal or plastic screw caps. Twist off jars can be recognized by two or more screw thread lugs on the neck of the jar. In this set we have selected the most common sizes used in the glass jar industry."

This is a really clever idea. I just wish they made some to fit the many canning jars I use in place of plastic containers.

I had been coveting these jar lids for about a year when my husband found them in my wish list and bought them for me for Christmas. Now that they've been with us for about 6 months, I feel that my opinion is worth offering to potential buyers. I agree that these are great-looking ways to extend the life of a regular jar that might otherwise go into the recycling.

However, I haven't had much luck finding jars that will fit the "industry standard" in the description so far, I've found that the middle cap (the goofy looking one with the little spout that sticks up, but with a shallow base, pictured on the front row right in the product photo) fits on several jars I've tried roasted red peppers and tahini, to be specific. The sifter top fits on a small, squat jar, kind of resembling a Greek amphora, that used to hold jarred peaches. The cap with the long handle only fits, so far, on a jar of Biscoff that I bought only because I thought it might fit (I thought I had a chance because Biscoff is European, and none of my US food jars would do the trick). The other two the other, fatter "spout" cap and the open top with a pourer lip? I haven't found one jar to match, despite trying every single jar I've encountered for the last six months (and trust me, we have a lot of jars tahini? Biscoff? these are not jars commonly found in the average US rural/suburban household.)

So here's my point. I think this is a great idea and for the jars I've managed to find, they work great sturdy plastic material, nice seal, easy to clean. To improve this product, I think they should come in a range of sizes (how about pourer caps to fit 2", 3" or 4" diameter jars, for example) and sell them individually based on what the consumer wants or needs. As things stand, as much as I want to use my remaining two orphaned caps, for now they're languishing in pantry, just waiting for me to find the magical jar that matches this mystery "industry standard." And, as another reviewer pointed out, caps to fit canning jars (industry STANDARD canning jars, regular and wide mouth), wouldn't be the worst thing either.

I bought these to use with some beautiful honey jarsand they work a treat. I am so pleased. You won't be able to use them on everything, but it's great to have them around for those jars that are just too cool to throw away. I also LOVE the idea of using these on disposable jars outsideso if the thing falls off onto the patio and gets broken, I won't really carebecause it's not a super expensive item.

These jar tops may be wonderful if you save old glass jars from commercial products, but they do NOT fit regular or wide mouth Mason jars which was the whole purpose of purchasing the things.

I bought these thinking I could use at least 1 on a spaghetti sauce size jar. So far the (I think it is 1 of the lids)only jar the lids fit is a jelly jar from Polaner all fruit jelly 15.25 oz jar. It is a great idea and I wish they made these for bigger jars. I love using glass. No chemical reaction with food. I bought the green. It is sort of a dark Olive color. Unfortunately I don't have a lot of small jars or uses for this just yet anyway.
