Can this model seal wide mouth canning jars of different sizes? (Quarts, pints and half pints)

This model is compatible with our Jar Sealers. The FoodSaver Jar Sealer fits on your Ball and Kerr Mason jars and comes in two different sizes - regular and wide-mouth. Depending on the jar size that you want to use for food storage, you only require one jar sealer.

Regular mouth lids will fit all capacities of regular mouth jars, and wide mouth lids will fit all wide mouth jars. Just check which type of mouth your jar has to know which type of lid to buy. (Pint jars could be either type of mouth.)

I'ved tried and didn't have good results, it really was hit or miss as to whether or not you'd get a seal. I ended up coming back and buying the "normal" jar sealer. I wouldn't do it if I were you. I can't even seem to FIND wide mouth jars to use.

Two quart jars fit into this; however, I don't think I've actually canned with quart jars with this product. There are small plastic rings built into the bottom that are designed for three pints. I usually am using half pint jars and can put four in without a problem.

Yes, but you need an attachment to use canning jars. They make two options - regular and wide mouth. Each one is $10 and a great addition to this sealer.

Yes, insert another lid on top of the one you are using to seal. (Top sides together.) then get out the sealer attachment place it on top of both lids to seal your jar. It works each time.

Yes it will. I have both the regular and wide mouth jar sealers and have sealed with each one using the tube that comes with each one. Just attach the tube in the vacuum sealer port and the other end to your jar sealer and turn on!

Yes, they fit both the pint and quart sized REGULAR MOUTH jars, not wide mouth jars.

Yep. I use them on the four, eight and sixteen ounce jars. The only ones that need the wide mouth lids are the 16 oz wide mouth jars.

It fits a wide mouth quart jar. I don't know if half gallon jars are the same size or not.

The regular mouth will NOT fit wide mouth. A regular mouth sealer will fit a regular mouth jar and a wide mouth sealer will fit the wide mouth jar. Glad you asked!

Hi, There are wide mouth quarts and narrow or regular mouth quarts as well as pints and even half pints.Regulars are about 2 3/4 inches in diameter and wides are about 3 1/2 inches in diameter.So it depends on which mouth size quarts you have.I found regular size lids on Amazon also.Bert

I used these lids on my old pint sized jars and they were great. As long as they are the regular mouth and NOT the wide mouth jars the lids will work.

I have one of these canners-it is absolutely perfect for the 1/2 pint and 1/4 pint jars. for pints I think it depends on the shape-if you can find the shorter fat wide mouth pint jars those would cover with water better than the normal shape tall pints

Be Careful! The 6 quart Presto model is barely tall enough to accommodate the height of a pint mason jar with seal and ring attached. The total volume of the vessel is not the issue here, it's the physical dimensions, in this case the height!!!! My 6 quart Presto allows me to can 4 pints IF YOU TURN THE SPACER UPSIDE DOWN AND PUT 4 QUARTERS UNDER THE SPACER TO KEEP THE HEAT FROM THE BURNER FROM POTENTIALLY BREAKING THE JARS!!!!! The quarters allow water between the bottom and the spacer. These units really should not be used for canning, there are other reasons.

i think it should work on any jar that it can seal on. it would have to be an almost exact fit for diameter, to fit in the sealing gasket.
