Kilner Square Glass Clip Top Preservation Storage Jar, 1 Litre

**DANGEROUS** I bought three of these for tea/Coffe/sugar. Initially very happy with the appearance of them, until I found a shard of glass in a cup of tea. I have now found that two of the jars have started to crack and shatter bits of glass under the metal clasp in to the tea and sugar. Please avoid. How do I get a refund on this rubbish?

I've always trusted Kilner jars and had no hesitation in ordering this jar to keep my coffee fresh. I don't know when the problem first manifested itself, it was only when I went to clean it that I spotted the stress fracture. I can't safely keep my ground coffee in this container any longer, but thought I'd share the experience and save a few potential purchasers their money.

Really disappointed in this product. Purchased for the well known name but it shattered after only 6 weeks. In these 6 weeks the jar was only used in the fridge to store a bread yeast so it wasn’t under pressure or heat treatment in this time. Seller was contacted but I was told it was out of return time despite the obvious fault.

I received this item, well packaged, wrapped in bubble wrap and even with extra cardboard wedged in the open space of the box, and this is the only reason this isn't a 1 star review.When I finally unwrapped it I noticed the lid felt rough to touch as I was moving it and took a closer look to find a good inch or two of glass around the edge of the lid had been cleaved off. I imagine the jars were likely stacked up in the warehouse and someone has cracked off the edge of the lid whilst moving them. Thankfully I didn't cut myself.

In the market for storage jars? Like the classic / traditional glass look? You might want to consider these...This is the Kilner Square Glass Clip Top Jar with rubber airtight seal. These are available in 0.5, 1, 1.5 or 2l.We opted for the 1l jar which comes in at 15 x 10cm, made of thick glass, rubber seal and steel clasp.These are going to get more popular with zero packaging shops where you fill your own.Just remember these are glass, so be cautious of any damage, stay vigilant.I fully recommend these, as they are a good quality item that should last years. The one in my drawer at work has.
