Are screw top lids able to be opened and closed more than once?

Yes, most Funeral Homes will not seal the urn unless you ask. You may want to make sure though.

Yes, I opened it when it first arrived, closed it, then opened it again at the mortuary and of course closed it again once the cremains had been placed inside. I can open and close it anytime I want. (I keep it closed)

Definitely!! These lids aren't the easiest to remove as they are tightly sealed (which is what you want) but you can certainly put them back on again with some force to make sure they are completely sealed.

Yes I can remove the lid, if I pull on it even a little, after the middle button is pushed down. I was able to do this pretty much immediately, so it's not that the product is old or faulty. They don't seal 100%. They close pretty well but they are not airtight at all. I live in Hawaii, and was concerned about bugs and humidity. The good part is that bugs (esp ants) haven't gotten in yet, after two years. But the bad part is that the humidity has gotten in. So most of the stuff I keep is in a plastic bag inside of the container. Pretty lame, considering the price, but they stack well and aren't ugly.

Yes - 3 lids; one with small holes, one with medium holes and then one with larger holes. They will screw onto a wide mouth canning jar.

If you mean screwtop bottles, yes. It will adjust down that small and grip the lids nicely. However, if you mean a flip top can, this device is not designed to open that sort of container.

Yes, the top screws off. You have to open the seal on each when first using.

YES, I CALLED !!! Place 2 of the flat lids on till sealed then remove the top one and you will have a tight seal. I wanted it for that reason, and was down to the last ok to buy it She I saw your question and the answers you were getting. I STOPPED RIGHT THERE, AND CALLED. I have bought mine.

I have bought several and they are pretty inconsistent with the way the lids fit. One of mine is so tight my kids can't open it, the other is super loose, and the third close to just right. I would not chance it in two of mine, the third one might handle for soup....luck of the draw you might get one with an ideal fit.

They don't actually snap closed, but I know what you are talking about. I ordered 2 sets (4 containers, and one of the containers is defective. I tried all the lids plus some that I already had, and the one bottom would not seal with any of the tops. All 4 of the tops worked my bottoms including my older ones. I have been so busy that I haven't contacted the vendor to see if I can get a replacement. Guess I need to do that. I really love them, and already had 4 when I ordered these 4. I like that they will stack about 3 high in a small space in my fridge, and I have kept Romaine Lettuce leaves fresh for 4 weeks in one.

Yes, and you can even reuse them for resealing with the vacuum sealer. To clarify you cannot reuse lids for water bath or pressure canning.

In the past, i contacted the company and ordered more, have not done this for a few years. On occasion, they used to have promotions on the packages of 4 to get more lids. Hopefully one of these ideas will work for you.

Not that I have found. I bought the black flip top accessory to replace the threaded lid that is on it when purchased, but I use both. I really like this product and would recommend it to anyone!

Yes, you can have them both open or either one of them fully open. That is exactly my configuration.

They certainly seem to be completely sealed. Either using the snap on, one time use lid or the more expensive gamma lid. I prefer the gamma so that access is available to the product stored with out the hassle of replacing the snap on lid.

These are not screw on lids, they are more pressure locks. When screwing on just tighten slowly until you feel it getting snug, you'll feel the lid snap or click to a position. That's as far as you need to tighten, the seal will do the rest of the work.

I reuse the same lids all the time with out any problems, I buy brown sugar and other baking ingredients , rice , flour etc on sale with coupons and seal it in jars all the time. I've never had an issue and have done this a few years now.

The lids do not "snap" closed. The Food Saver machine will suck the air out of the unit and seal it tight. Use the "Accessories" setting on the Food Saver.
