Over the past two years, there has been much talk of problems with canning lids not sealing. In this video, I provide my observations as a manufacturing expert on the construction and quality of several brands of canning lids and provide my opinion.

i have posted some comments on your you tube channel but they never show up, so i give up on that.
so take care and good luck.
I’ve only ever dealt with Ball, but like everything else, they just don’t make them the way they did 40+ years ago. I only do small-batch canning, but out of the last 4 dozen jars, I’ve had 2 that didn’t seal. Considering the massive quantities that my mother canned in the 60’s and 70’s, she never had more than 1 a year that was a problem.
Now, if you want canisters for dry goods, Mainstays lids and jars work fine. I just won’t trust either of them for canning.
This takes me back to when I was a kid. My mother canned a lot. Her specialty was pears.
If I had a nickel for every pear I pealed I would have been rich. She canned some of them with cherries and some with with cinnamon sticks. They were delicious.
