PreparaEvak Black Gloss Compact Handle

I loved these so much that I purchased three more. They keep nuts, snacks, and coffee beans fresh and look amazing on the counter if you choose to display them. Great product.

Exactly what I need and no issues after few months of usage.

Compared to the other versions of this Prepara Evak jar, (the ones which come with the high thicker arch handles) this jar feel cheaply made. Be careful when pressing down on the lid as the glass is much more thinner, it feels fragile and feels it will crack if you do not push straight down. The shorter lid handle is hard to press down because if you have large hands, it feels restrictive as your hand has to go right inside the glass jar compared to the high arched version. The handle is also much thinner and feels cheap in feel, the "Evak" logo is just a sticker stuck compared to the other models which has them printed on the glass. The silicone seals looks cheap. In general i feel this is a cost cutting product. Thicker glass, a higher arch handle and a better silicone seal would have made this product outstanding.------------UPDATED on 25th August.My second XL Prepara Evak jar just arrived as i had ordered two at the start. Same cheaply made quality as the first one. One thing to note before you use this is to remove/unlock/twist the "stainless steel" locking cover under the push handle and wash it thoroughly as mine had grease marks on the inside probably, come from the mould it was made in. In the picture above you can clearly see after i washed it the indents and scuff marks on how cheap the quality of the stainless steel is. I hope Prepara will rectify these issues. Never had these issues with the high arch handle Prepara jars as they are excellent quality jars with a super finish.

It being made of glass is a nice touch, but the lid works really well on condensing the contents in the container while keeping air out, and of course isn't hard to figure out.

It shattered after a few uses. The pressure of the lid when you go to remove it shattered the glass. Major design flaw, do not buy.
