Several old threads...wondered if anybody had new experience to share.
I learned about them during the pandemic, when you couldn't get Kerr or Ball lids, and counterfeits were all over the place for astronomical prices. I ended up buying bags and bags of the things. And had extremely variable results with them.
Time went on, conventional "flats" became available again and I ignored the Tattlers.
Only this week, I discovered that the farm store has wide mouth flats for the equivalent of 70 cents apiece! Gah!!! I can buy a can of store brand pinto beans for 58 cents!! Other veggies average about 89 cents.
Reusable is suddenly very attractive!!!
I've viewed numerous videos on using the Tattlers, each with a different "twist" so to speak. But anyway, I'm scrutinizing the lids and seals, and planning on doing a couple of canning projects with them this weekend.
One lid failure can be cause to go into mourning! So I proceed with extreme caution and skepticism.
What's your experience with them?
