Summary: Basic canning supplies
Comment: This kit is just what I needed for my canning projects and the price is just right too. These items made my job safer, easier and neater. I had tried to purchase some of these items separately and could not find them or the price was out of the question. No more burned fingers or dropped jars for this girl! Thanks Amason!!

Summary: Wish I'd realized the jar lifter was available separately
Comment: I am brand new at canning, and did my first batch prior to ordering these tools. It went okay, but I was immediately sold on the idea of a jar lifter. I looked and looked locally but couldn't find one, and this set was available for immediate shipment.
The jar lifter is fantastic, and ultimately I think it alone is worth the price of admission -- not because it's worth it in and of itself, but because it's a total necessity, so I would have purchased it at any price that wouldn't break the bank.
The other pieces are either already part of a moderately well-equipped kitchen, are nice but not necessary, and/or are not all that well constructed.
I'd opted to return a relatively expensive set of plastic funnels when I purchased this set, but the included funnel here melted a bit under the heat of the boiling brine I poured over the pickles-to-be. Same for the plastic surrounding the magnet when I used it (quite effectively) to grab the jar lids out of a simmer sauce pan. The lid wrench I'm just not sure I see a use for, since jars aren't supposed to be super tight and they tend to loosen when cooled anyway (or am I misunderstanding what this is for?), and the tongs, well, who doesn't have tongs?
Anyway, in researching for this review, I've come to feel like something of an idiot, because the pieces are available separately and eligible for the free shipping promotion of your choice. Unless you don't already have a funnel, or don't mind the possibility of plastic in your canned food, I recommend saving five bucks and just getting these two pieces:
Back to Basics 284 Jar Lifter
Back to Basics 174 Magnetic Lid Lifter
If you need more than those two pieces, though, this set will do the job.

Comment: Progressive 5-Piece Canning Kit These items made canning so much easier. No burned hands/fingers.Progressive 5-Piece Canning Kit My husband saw that it was easier than he thought,we bought another set for him and he does jams, salsa and pickles.
It is a must to have, as far as we are concerned.
