How do the lids fasten to the jars? Do they press down with a seal or do they just sit on the jar?

The jars have a silicone seal. They look nice and stack well however when the seal gets moved by putting the top/off, they are not airtight as I wanted! If you are not storing baking supplies such as sugar...they are nice.

You always seal the jar with the lid on the jar. After the seal is complete you screw on the ring. You can't seal a jar with a ring on the jar. Hope this helps you.

These are one piece canning lids, designed for waterbath or pressure canning. They take the place of two piece lids and rings. The lids have a rubber seal so they would be airtight and not leak if the jar is inverted.

There is a thin rubber gasket around the lids, this makes the seal very secure. I have had the canisters for several months and have no problem.

The lid is a push on lid with a seal on it. I have had severial of these cups with lids like this and have had no issues.

Yes they will. Plan to assemble your jars early because it will take time to put the lids back on because of the sug fit. I loved them they were a big hit at my daughter-in-law's baby shower. Still have a few on the pan try's self which gets knocked over and there is no leak. Buy them you'll be pleased.

The lids push on and seal quite tightly. They're very handy to use just be sure you put them in the upper rack of the dishwasher

The lids are not snap ons like a Rubbermaid container. Along the inside edge of the lid there is a recessed band of a foam type material that makes an air tight fit when the top is latched down onto the container portion.

Lids are not loose they fit tight. Not sure what you mean by airtight , but the lids on mine fit tight ,sometimes its hard to get them off .

The lids are a hard plastic. They kind of suction in the containers. They stay in pretty good.

The lids are not completely removable. They are attached with a wire "hinge" that, when closed, seals the canister. When open, the lids are attached at the hinge side. The lids seal well and I have found these canisters easy to use but slightly more difficult to wash because the lids tend to flop around during washing.

the seal on this tight. there is a rubber around the tight fitting lid that clamps down extra hard.

yes they do. I have not tried to seal the jars for long term, but they work fine for me.

I press them, but I think they seal without pressing down. When I lift from the center they stick.

The lids are hinded with suction sealing. I really like these canisters. I purchased chalkboard stickers to add to my canisters and use them for flour, sugar, rice etc. Hope this helps!

If the little brown clips are pushed outward, that locks the lid. Push them toward the middle to release. I never lock mine because the lid fits into grooves and won't fall off. They turn the lid counter clockwise to release it. It should then just lift right up.

They don't come off after opening the jar, but I do make sure to readjust them while closing the jar just to make sure that the seal is tight.
