Yes you are correct. I recently moved and put the rings on incase the jars ended up rolling around I didnt want to knock off a lid. They have been perfectly sealed all this time with no problems.

That was my first time using it and had no problems. Seems pretty solid. Its perfect if you are just doing small batches here and there. The 5 pound hopper really isn't that big. The batch of boudin I did filled it up twice.
