Nice weight, the little knob on top allows a firm grip. Before buying, I was looking at other options, and knobs on most of them looked very slippery. The little flower knob on these are not slippery at all. Would buy it again.

These weights are exactly as I hoped they would be -hefty,large, good quality attractive glass with the handles on them shaped in such a way that they are perfect for pulling out of a slippery fermenting liquid. These are the only ones where the handles slope upwards from a smaller-to larger, creating the perfect grip for fingers on slippery glass.The problem is that over half of the large set of 9 that I ordered arrived with the handles broken more than 50% off, and I do not feel confident using the broken ones with food products. I have requested replacement and hopefully the new set arrives complete. I would love to give these a 5 if they can correct the problem.So a new replacement order of these weights arrived 2 days later in perfect condition! I can now happily change my rating to a well-deserved perfect 5, as they really are not only well designed and attractive, but effective. Thank you Amazon & Okllen.

The key feature here is the handle you can use some curved tongs to pull out of a jar, so much better than the others I've used. The shape of the handle keeps them from rotating out too.

These were exactly what I needed for fermenting my sauerkraut.They are heavy and thick and have a knob so you can lift them from the jar.

I just got back into canning about a year ago and wanted to try and make my own sauerkraut. These weights fit perfectly in wide mouth canning jars to keep the sauerkraut immersed in the brine. The handle makes them easy to remove. Great product. Since this is my first attempt at sauerkeaut, if all goes well, I will be ordering more and making more of my own sauerkraut.

These glass fermentation weights do their job of keeping my pickled red onions and assorted peppers submerged, but let’s be honest: trying to grip them with tongs when they're slippery and wet feels like an Olympic sport. While they’re a definite upgrade from my previous set, which could double as a medieval torture device, those little handles could use a design rethink. They function as needed, but every time I go to retrieve them, it’s a battle of wills between me and my slippery friends. Still, they’re helping my fermenting game—just with a bit of extra finger acrobatics involved!
