Great for starting out.
I really have no complaints. My wife and I are just starting our digging into the concept of fermenting, so we're new at it. However the kit has everything we needed to get started. There are other options with other kinds of air traps, but personally I like these that use water. They show a visible sign of fermentation (bubbling) and don't need to be manually burped. There's no way for air to go in the wrong way.We used some pretty large bottles, and the glass weights might be a little small for those. However they still work fine if you just make sure everything is submerged. No issues, really.I definitely like these, 100% as we expand into fermenting more once we figure out the ins and outs, we'll pick up some more of this exact kit.

Leak a little bit , bad QC
The kit looks solid and the materials feel decent, but it leaks during fermentation and the seal is not reliable. I experienced liquid leaking from the lid/airlock area, which made a mess and raised concerns about proper fermentation. Setup and adjustment were also more finicky than expected. Overall, it works in theory, but the sealing issues make it disappointing for the price.

🧙perfect gift 💝for a kitchen witch💚‼️👍🏼
Fermentation Kit for Wide Mouth Mason Jars (86mm), 316 Stainless Steel Fermentation Lids, Glass Weights, Airlock System, Complete Home Fermenting Set (Jars Not Included)I got this kit because I like to make me some pickles and sauerkraut, especially in the summer and I’m always scrounging around the kitchen, looking for weights to weigh down the fermenting veg in the jar. So really I was super into the weights in this kit.However, pretty much everything in the kit seems useful. The lids with the little valve to burp them is fantastic, the tongs are great because you don’t really want to stick your finger in something you’re fermenting. The aforementioned weights are nice, heavy glass and fit perfectly within a wide mouth jar.The only thing I could take or leave are the airlocks. I’ve never needed to use those when making pickles or sauerkraut, and why complicate things more than you need to.Overall, I think this is a great kit either if you are looking to get into fermenting, or you like to ferment, or you have that special someone who likes to kitchen witch- and this is a great gift. It’s a bit pricey, but you do get a lot. If like me, your main goal is getting weights, you probably could get just the weights on their own. Beyond that… I recommend it.

Fermentation Kit for Wide Mouth Mason Jars — works well, but gasket can slip
The product arrived as described. I used it to create a ginger bug and it worked well. I appreciated the ability to close the small seal on the lid it closes securely, so when you remove the valve you can reseal the top. The glass weights are stellar! My only issue is the larger seal that sits between the lid and the jar — it’s slightly undersized and can slip out when placing the lid on. I found it easiest to set the seal on the jar first and then screw the lid on; occasionally it still slipped into the jar and needed to be fished out. It’s a minor annoyance, but a slightly larger or better-fitting gasket would improve the product. Otherwise it functions as expected. My ginger bug is alive and well.

As someone who is completely new to fermentation, I couldn’t have asked for a better way to get started. I’ve never tried fermenting anything before, and this kit truly provides everything you need to begin making healthy, fermented delicacies with confidence.The lids fit my wide-mouth mason jars perfectly, and the silicone rings and grommets create an excellent airtight seal—exactly what you want for successful fermentation. What really impressed me is how thoughtfully complete this kit is. It includes many items I wouldn’t have even thought about needing as a beginner, which takes away so much guesswork and stress.I tend to get excited about new projects and sometimes jump in before fully assembling all the necessary tools. With this kit, that problem is completely solved—everything is already there and ready to go. It makes starting a new fermentation adventure feel easy and approachable instead of overwhelming.All the components feel solid, well made, and crafted with quality in mind. Nothing feels flimsy or cheap. Even small but important extras like tongs and labels are included, which honestly amazed me and shows how much care went into designing this set.Overall, this is an excellent fermentation kit, especially for beginners. It’s thoughtfully designed, high quality, and a fantastic value for everything you get. I feel confident using it, and I’m excited to start fermenting—highly recommended!

Great priced set for both experienced and new users
This is a no-brainer set for anyone who wants to start preserving or fermenting foods. The set includes 4 solid glass weights, lids, airlock system and 4 shiny aluminum lids with a rubber rubber-sealed cutouts. They perfectly fit standard wide mouth mason jars of any size. I have used them on both 64oz one for Kimchi and Sauerkraut and smaller 32 oz (pictured) for smaller more routine vegetables. On shorter jars make sure you leave enough room for the airlock spigot to insert fully.The price is perfect and they are super easy to use. They do what they are designed to do and i have not had any mold or rotting issues with any of my batches.
