I only got my first set of Mason jars a couple of years ago, but now I can’t imagine being without them. I use them to make salad dressings, store leftover sauces, house freshly ground coffee, and even drink said coffee. I’ll also stash my leftovers in them when my other food storage containers are occupied.
Just recently, I started using a Mason jar cold brew maker. It’s been a serious game-changer for my mornings (bye bye, drive-through coffee).
While the ones I have get plenty of use, I wanted a set that was smaller than my 32-ounce jars so I could meal prep just the right amount of overnight oats. NETANY’s Glass Jar Four-Pack that come with adorable (and airtight!) bamboo lids did just that.
What You Should Know About the NETANY’s Glass Jar Four-Pack
What really caught my eye was the brand’s Glass Jar Four-Pack, which includes four 16-ounce jars with bamboo lids with silicone rings that seal tightly. Not only are the jars pretty to look at, but they’re a real find. Shoppers bought more than 3,000 sets in just the past month alone.
The jars themselves are microwave and dishwasher-safe, though many reviewers note that they hand-wash the lids. Plus, they’re freezer friendly, if you want to portion out big batches of soup for future dinners. This set of four is currently 20% off, and just $20.
My Honest Review of NETANY’s Glass Jar Four-Pack
When the Glass Jar Four-Pack showed up at my door, I was immediately impressed with the way it was packaged. The jars were safely cuddled up in a thick foam block with divots for each jar to sit comfortably. This meant no broken glass (something I have run into before with a different set of jars).
My first order of business was to make overnight oats. I had a vision for pumpkin chocolate chip oats that I needed to try out. The 16-ounce jar easily fit half a cup each of oats and milk, plus a hearty spoonful or two of canned pumpkin, chia seeds, chocolate chips, a pinch of cinnamon, and a splash of maple syrup. All combined, I had more than enough room at the top for mixing — and more importantly no spillage.
When I took it out of the fridge the next day, the lid was a little tighter than I anticipated, but easy enough to remove without reaching for my trusty lid grippers. Inside was a delicious breakfast, perfect for ringing in fall.
I haven’t just been using these jars for overnight oats, though. Just like my larger jars, these make great drinking glasses (it was just the right size for a mini can of Sprite Zero with a handful of ice). I also think they’ll be great for shaking up vinaigrettes, storing soup, and making DIY instant ramen cups. That last one is going to be my next adventure.
