I envisioned the more rigid, clear plastic when I placed my order & was thrilled with the cheap price. When it arrived, I realized it is the more pliable, somewhat opaque plastic (similar to Tupperware). I had also envisioned larger containers, but they were half the size I had thought they were. I did not unpack it, but it looked like the lids would be airtight. It is probably a quality product, it just wasn't what I was wanting. I returned it.
I had purchased the Vtopmart Cereal Storage set (used one for bran flakes, one for rolled oats, and the other 2 are perfect for 5 pounds of flour each (all purpose and whole wheat). So I ordered this set to continue on the road to an organized pantry. There are enough container and enough variety of sizes to make me happy. I have stored pastas and noodles, dried beans, rice, sugar, instant mashed potatoes, crackers, etc. When I open a box of something, I put whatever is unused into one of the containers and feel very secure that the contents will be fresh and protected from any possible insect problem. (I have never had insects in anything, but live in south Florida and used to keep my flour in the freezer and sugar in the fridge "just in case".) With this container set, I feel no need to do that anymore. Hand washed or dishwasher washed, they are simple to clean. Highly recommended.
The items are just as described. These containers pack a punch! They hold much more than I thought and looks are deceiving. I found myself underestimating the capacity of these containers and had to transfer items to a smaller side container. When you wash/rinse them prior to use, I do recommend letting the lid dry thoroughly. The lid has the rubber lining that keeps the seal airtight and moisture does get in the seal crack when washing. We left ours to dry over night for best results. These items are sturdy and the labels are better than expected. I was pleasantly surprised to find that the labels are a thicker vinyl. Overall, we are pleased with the quality and value of these containers.
I ordered a few different sets from this company and all seem really airtight so far. I like how they stack and am loving the label options. My pantry is looking really organized. Yay!
LOVE!!
I really like these containers, it is a 15 pack so i think what you get for the price is fantastic. Highly recommend for any pantry items, especially baking. Everything looks organized!
The labels and marker are also a great idea, the labels can be removed from the container and don’t leave a mark (if you do it carefully), also what you write on the labels is easily removed with a wet paper towel.
The containers also seal very well, the rubber that makes it air tight can also be removed for facilitating cleaning. All have the same lid so you aren’t scrambling to find the right one which is fantastic too!
Only negative would be adding the labels can be a bit tedious, so if you’re a perfectionist and each container needs to have the label on the exact same spot, you might get irritated....
Overall i’d recommend and would buy again! Purchasing these made me want to purchase more!!
These storage containers are great! They're sturdy and hold way more than it appears. The labels made my baking cabinet look 100% better organized than ever before-- I would buy them again and definitely recommend them!
ps: I have the other containers similar to these that hold 5 lbs of flour each, and those are perfect, too!
A friend recommended I get these storage containers after I reorganized my pantry. I had a mish mash collection of containers and wanted to spiff it up a bit. These containers are great. They come with the chalkboard stickers and the chalk marker. They stick really well and the marker wipes off easily when I goofed up. The lids seal and lock on tightly but are easy to open. The containers look really nice in my neat pantry now.
Everything here is from there!!! I love it all
