Worked.. but needed to gently pound the lower bowl with the the palm of my hand 🖐 going around the edge..Tyvm
Help everyone! This didn't work. I have a glass Ikea coffee cup with an 8oz Ball quilted crystal canning jar stuck in it. I tried the ice and hot water, but I think the canning jar is thicker glass and isn't contracting. First I tried dish soap, this trick and now (completely rinsed of soap)I tried a household spray lubricant like WD40. Any other suggestions?
Best video on YouTube
Thank you, excellent explanation of why it works too!
Does the shape matter cause my rectangular glass dishes didn't budge. 😔
Wow just wow. Thank you.
Thank you. It worked great for me, I let them sit for about 40 seconds and they came apart so easy. I have to say that I put hot water on the bottom container, not boiling but hot. Best of luck
Yes! It really really worked. I had a empty Classico jar stuck inside a large coffee mug. The trick for me was using, ice ; salt and boiling hot water. Plus I use a paring knife around the edges. Don’t give up keep trying😅😅😅😅😅
This didn’t work for me
This works !! 👏👏
Worked! Thanks so much. I love people's desire to help each other and YouTube making it so easy to do so.
It really worked for me for my steel glasses….
Thank you madam…
wow you made it look so easy. yet it took 5 mins not 3 seconds. You could learn from the Meet Brandon Video
I tried it with the addition of salt and really hot water, 5 minutes, it works.
This just happened to my mom so I looked for a solution, and wow, it worked. She says thank you and merry Christmas!
