very happy with these food

"very happy with these food weights"

— Alison R. (4/5)

Perfect!

"Was looking for a second set of weights for making kimchi and these are *far* better than my others of a different brand. These are slightly narrower and go into the neck of a Perfit jar so easily. Great weight too. HealthPost had these to me very quickly as they always do with their orders. Thanks folks!"

— Alison (5/5)

Great Service

"Purchased glass fermenting weight set. Found one of the weights to be faulty on arrival although packaged extremely well. Happened at their suppliers. Contacted Healthpost and they were extremely helpful, replaced full set and even let us keep the original set at no cost so very happy customers."

— Katrina P. (5/5)

Excellent for fermenting

"I'm really happy with these weights. It is a great improvement over the ""Ziplock bag filled with water"" method. The weights fit nicely into the wide mouthed Agee/Perfit 500ml & 1L jars, and are easy to clean and sterilise."

— Shona (5/5)
