Weck 745 Tulip Jar - 1 Liter, Set of 6 Clear

I absolutely love these Weck jars! I have a feeling by the end of the year I'm going to have a giant collection in a zillion sizes.My goal in ordering these was actually to use them as drinking glasses - but being that I am absolutely atrociously (and embarrassingly) clueless about sizing I didn't realize quite how big a liter actually is. So I received them and realized they'd be used for other purposes.These are amazing quality and you get 6 large jars for such a great price! I am now storing cream of wheat, powdered milk, powdered chili pepper, and other baking ingredients in these. I happily replaced the ugly, messy store boxes for these adorable containers. If you're looking for cute and practical storage for your kitchen (or really anywhere!) I highly recommend these!These are big, but not huge. If you're looking for something that will store an entire bag of flour this is not your product. The jars are made of high quality, thick glass that does not feel like it will break easily. They have a wide mouth with a bit of an outer lip. The rubber ring easily rests on top and I only occasionally have to readjust when I place the glass lid on. It stays in place quite well. The metal fasteners are very easy to use as well and keep it securely closed. The jars are a cinch to clean with a little dish soap and water but can also go in the dishwasher.Edit: They have kept my dry ingredients quite fresh thus far. I still find them easy to use with a little patience (patience compared to crumpling the top of my flour bag and tossing it back in the cabinet). I am going to be purchasing another set of these when I move because I've found them to be so convenient.

I ordered these because I needed glass containers that had lids that would stay on, but didn’t need to be air tight - mainly I use them for sourdough starter. I’ve now had them for months and love them. Except for the one lid that broke (My fault - I was removing the weird clips when I pulled them out of the box and the lid leapt and crashed to the floor) there have been no problems. They clean easily, seem to deal with temperature differences with ease, and are perfect to culture my starter in.Now I have not used them with their ‘air tight’ additions - the rubber that would sit between the lid and jars and the annoying clips to hold the lids closed. So I cannot attest to that. But as containers for what I use them for, they’re perfect.

Love these. Sturdy, thick, well packaged and well made. Heavy, but not too heavy. Sturdy lids. Totally worth it. We use for sourdough starter and also to give sourdough starter to friends. Perfect for starter as easy to clean and mark. You can mark it with a permanent marker to help judge the rise, then easily wipe off the marks when washing. (We put these in the dishwasher, but use a dish brush on the marks first as the washer doesn't always get them off. With a dish brush it takes 2 seconds to remove the marks.) These also feel strangely elegant to use - we love them!

I wish I'd kept my mouth shut about how great these are! Now I can't even reorder them lol. They are gorgeous. You need to order a lifter or you'll have a tough time controlling the jars when lifting. The European gasket system works really well. I only have 6 and used them for peach pie filling, beautiful, all sealed. I actually think this system may work better than what we in the US are accustomed to using.

The Weck tulip jars are sturdy, simple to use for canning and storage, lovely aesthetic, as well. From the comments read here, I was fortunate as one of the purchasers who received my jars intact. I was worried about the possibility of breakage during shipping. After receipt of my first order of Wecks, I placed my order for a second group of six smaller jars following close examination of my first purchase. The quality of these jars is excellent, while the packaging, truth be told, needs rethinking. I truly was one of the fortunate ones with this purchase. Crossing my fingers that my second order arrives intact, too.

I love how big these are. Study glass with a nice design on the glass. Pay attention to where the clips jump to if they pop off ;) I wish the sealing ring was a little wider and a maybe a little thicker. It seems to stretch out too much and is super flimsy, making it really difficult to get placed properly. I'm using them for loose leaf tea and dry goods storage/display. I'd like to use them for wet ingredients too, but I don't trust the seal.

I bought this set of jars to store my sourdough starter. It honestly is too big for the amount of sourdough starter I normally have, but it is just so wonderful. It's very sturdy and easy to clean. I like the metal closures that come with it so that you can choose to "lock" the lid in or not. I used it to store some homemade preserves and they look so cute!

I’m in love with the shape of these jars. They are perfect for my sourdough starter. I use them daily and still can’t get over how nice they are! I’m going to slowly replace all my Mason jars with these Wick Jars!
