KitchenCraft Jam Pot Covers Set, 24 Wax Discs for Jam Jars with Covers and Labels, Tight Seal, 24 Uses Set

Decided to make jam, as you do! Plenty of stuff to make jam with in the garden and on my 10,000 step walks. Damsons, crab apples, sloes, cooking apples (scrumped from someone's garden!). I remember my grand mother doing this and so looked for wax tops and plastic coverings and jam jars, etc. Found these jam jar covers and they are top.

The wax discs are still too small for an average 1lb jar

I make marmalade a lot I don't really need a selection just the ones for 1lb jars my fault with my ordering tho they are just right

Issues finding 1lb jar size jam maker covers so ordered these. Pleased I did as been using them since they arrived. Plenty of 2lb jar size but I recycle jars much smaller than the 2lbs so wanted the 1lb sizes. Highly recommend if you cannot find any within your area. Our little sweet / gift shop used to sell them alas this closed down years ago and locally couldn't find any hence ordered off Amazon.

Poor quality

Not yet used

The cellophane transparent covers are so thick, probably at least twice or three times as thick as normal covers, which make fitting them to the pot extremely difficult. Whether they will have an effect is doubtful. It was similar to putting a sheet of Perspex onto the jam pot. Moistening them as per instructions had no effect on them. Trying to keep them in place with the rubber bands needed 4 hands as the covers were so rigid and kept springing the rubber band off. In the end the only way to fit them was to hold it in place on the jam pot, screw the lid on, then fit the rubber band. Not the correct way to do it. Sadly this is typical of poor quality control of imported goods from China. Won’t be buying these again.

A good selection of items for jam making - but I found the labels a bit small and the wax discs a bit too big. All worked out though.
