Product Description: By removing air from a jar you can keep the food within fresh three to five times as long. Save your self time and money using the Tilia FoodSaver system.
Amazon.com Review: For those who cook large quantities of food, FoodSaver vacuum packaging systems offer excellent protection against food spoilage and freezer burn. This jar sealer attachment fits on wide-mouth mason jars and is for use with any FoodSaver machine that has an accessory port. The top forms a tight seal on mason jars while the tubing removes air from the jar with the help of a FoodSaver machine. The jar sealer works equally as well in packaging liquid foods, such as jams or chocolate sauces, as it does for dry goods, such as brown sugar or spices. While vacuum packaging is not a substitute for traditional canning methods, it does keep food fresh three to five times longer than keeping it in a plastic food storage container in the refrigerator. --Cristina Vaamonde

FoodSaver may be kind of shooting themselves in the foot with this product. We found their plastic canisters to be rather expensive, and there were too many reviews saying people had experienced cracks in them. I'm sure a plastic canister would be good in some circumstances, but when we found out there are wide-mouth 2 quart canning jars (you generally only see 1 quart and 1 pint in the stores), we bought the last 3 cases of them we could find locally (6 jars in each case) and ordered this Jar Sealer. What a great product!
Just so there's no misunderstanding, this product is removed ... Read More

I've used this a couple of times now. It seems to work fine, but it doesn't like just any lid. I re-use old lids for storage (but not for canning) all the time. I could usually tell which one of my recycled lids wouldn't work. They were the ones with visible blemishes to the gasket or were somehow dented around the rim. It did take me a couple of tries with some of the good lids though. All in all, I like this device. Just be patient with it. Sure beats using disposable plastic bags all the time for storage.

This is a very inexpensive way to be able to use your WIDE mouth mason jars to use with the foodsaver. Almost every household has ball mason jars and if not, they are quite inexpensive to buy at a hardware store or department stores. The 1 quart size wide mouth BALL mason jars are great to use when after a while you need to transfer food from the larger canisters to smaller containers and the mason jars will definitely do the trick. Just simply put the lid on and put this jar sealer down tight, connect your hose and push the canister button on the foodsaver and it will vacuum out all the air. The lids ... Read More
Rating: - Food Saver Jar Sealer
I really like this product. It is easy to use and I love the fact that it works on canning jars and I don't have to buy bags for it. I have just started using it and so far have only used it on dry foods. It says you can use it for sauces and jams, etc. which is nice. I don't think I would open a can of green beans (home canned) and then reseal and put back on the shelf, but for things you eat often it is nice to be able to seal the jar and they will stay fresher. I would recommend this to anyone who wants to keep foods fresher in jars. It's also nice that you can use the lids over and over again, the ... Read More
Rating: - THE HOSE DOESN'T COME WITH THIS PRODUCT
Beware - no hose!
I bought this,FoodSaver T03-0023-01 Wide Mouth Jar Sealer not for the jar sealer itself but to buy the pictured hose (We need the hose, but no found alone). The hose doesn't come with it, so don't expect it (and Amazon - pls say "hose not included").
