PrepSolutions Flour Keeper – Airtight Storage Container for Flour, Sugar & Dry Goods, 5 lb Capacity, BPA-Free, Easy Pour Design

I love this flour keeper. I purchased several of these containers: two this size for flour and corn meal; others in the appropriate sizes for sugar, brown sugar, powdered sugar, baking powder/soda, cocoa powder, etc., and love them all. - The lids are truly air tight. I bought these because we had a major infestation of pantry moths and had to throw out most of our dry goods (!!!), and we needed to convert to air tight containers to prevent further problems. While we have had some problems with OTHER products/containers, we have never once had pantry moths (or weevils for that matter) in our baking goods that we store in these containers. - I really appreciate that these are rectangular - they fit very neatly next to each other on a square shelf and stack pretty well too. - The built-in leveler is so handy; much quicker/easier to scoop and level with one hand vs holding the flat side of the knife, etc. - I love the quick and easy but very effective locking mechanism - again a one-handed maneuver to close this baby up. - The grip strips on the one side of the container make it pretty easy to grab this off of the shelf even when it's full (and even though I'm grabbing it from overhead since I store my baking stuff above my double wall ovens). - Freshness: This holds a standard bag of flour. I've started baking more but before, it took for-e-ver to get through a whole bag of flour and I never had a problem with freshness storing in this container. My wife bought a breadmaker a few months ago and about a hundred different kinds of flour; once she starts using it and opening all those bags, I envision many of these containers in our cabinet. Totally worth the $$ to prevent tossing out bag after bag of flour due to weevils, or having another pantry moth invasion (*shudder* - what an absolute nightmare). I am not a plastic person at all and all of our other storage containers are glass, so I was hesitant to purchase these. But they are stellar and I will be getting more as we expand more into breadmaking and baking. Overall, you can't go wrong with these and I highly recommend them.

Holds a 5 lbs bag of flour.

I love this flour canister. Not only does it seal nice and tight, but the scraper insert makes it so easy to level measure. Big enough to fit a 5 lb bag.

I own these for flour and sugar, and just ordered another as a replacement for a broken one (more on that in a minute). (Yes, still like them enough to buy another.) Things I like: 5 lbs of flour or sugar fit in the container nicely. -I can easily open or shut the lid with one hand. -The lid is hinged, and kept tight with a nifty latch. -The containers are rectangular, and the lids are flat, so they fit well, and can even stack in a pantry. -Red is my color, so this goes with my décor. -The lid has a little rubber gasket, so the stuff really does stay fresh. -The leveler is a nice little touch... when you can use it. -The clear plastic works for me, because I can easily see the contents. -BPA free. Things that were less than cool: -You can't really use the leveler until there is less than 5 lbs of flour or sugar in the container. On the other hand, you would also have to make a bigger container to fix this problem, and that would be a pretty inefficient use of pantry space. After all, I can always use a butter knife to level a cup of something, but building a bigger pantry isn't going to happen. -The leveler gets in the way of sliding a bag into the keeper, and is not removable. This doesn't bother me, as the whole reason I bought these was to get the Ziplock baggie filled paper flour/sugar bags out of my pantry and replaced with a neater looking alternative. -These look attractive to me in my pantry, but I would be less happy with them if they were on my counter. Not really a replacement for display canisters (if you use those). -The canisters are a little big to be lifted with one hand. There is no hand grip. And I have pretty big hands for a lady. Just be warned, getting it out of the pantry one handed may not be easy for everyone... which sort of feeds into my final negative... -If you drop one of these on a hard tile floor, it WILL crack. Like big cracks. Now, mine didn't shatter and explode throwing flour everywhere or anything, but it definitely came under the heading of pain in the rump when it happened. I think this is sort of the price we pay for clear BPA-free plastic... they tend to be a bit more brittle now. I get that my Cons list looks a bit bigger, but if you look closely you will also see I have included reasoning for why I am willing to tolerate those Cons, and have reordered a replacement for my shattered flour keeper. I will just be a LOT more careful how I handle it in the future. (I also own the Brown Sugar Keeper and Powdered Sugar Keeper from this line, and am happy with those two, though I wish the Powdered Sugar Keeper was bigger. I have just ordered the Mini Keeper along with my replacement Flour Keeper.)

Perfect for my bags of flour! Ordered two more after I got my first one. Excellent product for baking needs. I bake all our breads, rolls, buns, and cinnamon rolls or bread from scratch. Airtight and the perfect size for my flours and sugar! I have containers now for each type of flour. Easy to line up on my counter for baking. May add two more when my rye and whole wheat get here. Only wish I had bought the larger pack of these from the start! SO many uses !!

I just got it, but it seems well made and I do like the little lip they put in there to level off a measuring cup. I haven't looked yet, but I would like to find out if they make a smaller one. This one is kind of big

I love this airtight flower keeper. I wish the manufacturer would consider making it in more sizes. The level inside makes all the difference.

This is a great cannister. It seals really tight and fits a whole ag of flour.

Excellent item. Holds well over a bag of flour, the built -in leveller is a great idea, saves all that messing about trying to level off cups off flour from the bag. Nice size, not too tall to fit in the cupboard as some of these boxes are. Seems to be airtight, time will tell.

Functional, just the perfect size for 2 kg of flour.

Excelente material y funcional.

Flour Lady, Flour Girl, Flour Power & Flour Keeper, Without having these containing your different flours or sugars, You'll be a Baking Weeper. Brown Flour or White Flour, Brown Sugar or White Sugar, It's heavy of course, but it's better than the bag that lets out the puffs of flour, or let's in the unwanted bugs of flour; or opens for the sugar but never clothes, or let's bugs to breed with their open noses. Who's doing the Baking around there, why is the baking cupboard one that looks in fear, it might be time to organize your cupboard because you want good times to be near. With our flours out of the way, we have so much space my dear, and with more of these in our kitchen, my darling has nothing to fear. You know what else goes into open packages of dried foods, FLOATING BACTERIAS & DUST. Is your floating bacterias and dust in the kitchen cupboard tasty?, because I don't think so, take a bite of this cake my darling made that I'm eating right now, and tell me if it taste dusty. Mmmmmm, I know I know yummy. But seriously Chef, it's fabulous and you should get it. And when you pour your whole bag into it, you won't believe how it looks like you have more, and you will because none is wasting stuck to the bag or ruining somehow.

Solid construction. Works well. I used mine for elbow macaroni. Easily works with a 1 cup measure.
