I am THRILLED with these lids, mainly because of the PEACE of mind-of knowing that these lids are BPA-Free!!!
(It's the Only reason why I purchased them. I don't want to be thinkling about whether I'm poisoning myself
or others when I give them some food item or jam-preserve with a BPA lid...would you? (well...
some die-hard Ball-Mason/Kerr fans are STILL selling BPA to us. At local Farmer's Markets,
Farm Ranch Co-Ops etc. Say NO to BPA in Ball-Mason & Kerr lids!! and PLEEEEZE get the word out)
Sure their are PLASTIC "tattler" lids that have NO BPA...but who wants PLASTIC?? I do Not.
This Italian maker Bormioli Rocco NEVER had BPA! These are made of Stainless Steel and a ONE-Piece construction.
This is so much More Cost-Effective than replacing ALL your canning jars with
the WECK* brand (*All glass lids AND jars-that are NOT interchangeable)
DOWNSIDE: Some venders here on Amazon have different pictures than
what they are actually selling.(Check with them to be sure)
*** But I can say with CERTAINTY that what you want is the 70mm size or 2-3/4"--for the REGULAR Ball-Mason/Kerr(Yes. Kerr too)jars.
For WIDEMOUTH Ball-Mason/Kerr jars you want 86mm which is the same as the 3-3/8 ones being sold
at Goodman's.
P.S. Quattro Stagioni also sells a 56 mm lid. This size ONLY fits THEIR jar. It is SMALLER
than Ball-Mason's Regular size lid.
Since the QUATTRO STAGIONI lid IS a one-piece lid, it will actually measure larger than the
center piece lid of Ball-Mason's. But they all fit, and that's what you need to know. : )

My wife loves the Quattro Stagioni jars she received as a gift. She uses them to hold the milk she gets from our goats. Unfortunately, the lids are not available locally, but fortunately, they are through Amazon in a timely manner. The downside is that the shipping is over twice the cost of the lids.
