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.
What’s your favorite brand?

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.
