Has No Life - Lives on TB
Just a heads up for anyone using them, they have a recall on the silicon seals and state that they should no longer be used for canning. Several people I know have checked their shelves and found that a large percentage of the lids have unsealed. And at least one has tried to contact them, as per their webpage, and has been ignored.
I received some myself as a gift and fortunately have not used them yet. But I did contact them for replacements and have yet to hear back from them.
If you have them, another canner has said that the rings from the Tattler lids will fit them. But that's up to you if you want to try it.
This is the website with contact info if you have them and want to try to get the replacement seals. http://www.4everrecap.com/
Please pass this on to others you know that may have used them. One person I know lost everything that she canned using these lids. And she is very careful about how her jars are stored. She also uses Tattler lids and glass lids and had no fails in storage for those. Just the 4everrecap lids. Others in our canning group had a minimum of a 50% fail rate on the shelf and are now trying to use up the rest of the stuff before the lids fail.
