Great quality always.
Very good quality and affordable price
Great lids, perfect for the job and very quick delivery too.
Perfect for my jars
This is the best value for money that I can find. Price is an important factor as I donate jars and jars of home made chutneys to the Women's Institute and the National Gardens Scheme
GREAT PRODUCT BUT UNFORTUNATELY I ORDERED THE WRONG SIZE SO THEY ARE NO USE TO ME.
perhaps I SHPULD BUY SOME JARS TO FIT THE LIDS
Jam jar lids are simple things and perhaps not worthy of a review; order the right size and you will get the right size - but when you realise that you have mistakenly ordered the wrong size and need to make a change in a hurry then customer services really come into their own. Well done Wares for helping me out and being so nice about it.
What can I say? I wanted jam jar lids and I got jam jar lids that fit perfectly on previous jars. Quick postage. (Although a flat rate p&p is good for some but not for others...)
good service
