Big size, great labels
My kitchen seems to be very humid, and dry items like crackers and cereal can get pretty limp. I bought these containers to combat that problem and provide a convenient way for my grandkids to get their own snacks, either by removing the lid (as in the case of snack packs) or by pouring through the opening in the lid (as in the case of cereal). They’re a good big size to hold plenty of either. The included black labels and “chalk pen” make it easy to identify contents—and change, as needed—while adding some nice style to a utilitarian item. The containers have the added advantage of being semitransparent so you know when it’s time to replenish the contents. I initially planned to put this set in a cabinet with a pullout drawer, but I miscalculated the height and the containers turned out to be about an inch too tall. Instead, I added them to an open wire cart I was setting up to hold other kitchen items, and that actually turned out to be a better choice for my situation. If the size of these containers does suit your available space, I highly recommend them. (P.S. So many labels are included that I’ve been able to jazz up a few other containers, too.)

Great product compared to many that I have tried!
This is my 4th brand of cereal containers in a week. This is the first set that was: durable, leakproof, and decently sized. I absolutely love them!I first bought the OXO brand cereal containers (which were very pricey including the discounted Homegoods price). They looked really nice but are very easy to crack (evidenced by the many I saw cracked on the clearance aisle). They were also very difficult to push down the pour spout. I then purchased the Sistema brand of cereal dispensers which have a similar style to Vtopmart. However they were not remotely leakproof which means the cereal would have gone stale much faster. Then I went the Walmart route and bought their Mainstay brand. I liked that these could hold the cereal bag inside of them however they were ridiculously large and also not leakproof. Lastly in a last attempt I purchased these Vtopmart cereal dispensers. They are perfect! I tested with water and they are completely leak proof. The spout is easy enough to use but not so easy as to not strongly latch. They look to be durable and could withstand being dropped without cracking. Best part of all- they are cheapest per unit of all 4! Excited to see how these last over time!

Affordable and attractive food storage.
These containers feel well-made and sturdy. The lids fit very snugly and appear to be air-right. The cereal has stayed fresh and tasty in them for two weeks now so far. The thinner side also makes the containers fit perfectly in your hand while pouring cereal from them and makes it easy for my kids to pour their own bowls now. I love that my kids can see what kind of cereal there is in each now and I can quickly and easily assess when I need to buy more. This was the perfect addition to my pantry organization project and I will likely buy more very soon!

Good 3D filament containers
I didn't purchase these to store food items. I actually got them because I wanted an airtight storage solution for open spools of 3D filament. So I don't know how well they keep food fresh and dry but I do know that they keep moisture away my filament stored in this container, of course in tandem with some packets of desiccant. These are the ones that marsgizmo recommended with his filament bunker and I have to say I do like how this combo works. They don't hold all spools out there so pay attention to the posted dimensions of the container and then determine if the spool of your preferred filament will fit.I wish that there was a secure way to stack them on top of each other but I don't think the way I'm using them was the intention of the manufacturer. But if you are listening Mr. Manufacturer, how about making these with a secure stacking feature?For those purchasing to store food items:The lids do fit nice and tight once they are locked in place. The top opening is very secure as well so it seems like if it were to tip over, the access lid isn't going to easily pop open.The product picture gives you the illusion that the container is almost crystal clear but it's actually a "foggy" clear. You can see though the plastic but the contents aren't as sharp and clear as the pictures. At least not with the ones I received.They were easy to clean and if you use them for storing food, remember to remove the rubber gasket in the channel of the lid and clean those as well.Overall they are a nice container many things, just not only food, and they fit most of the filament spools I have partially used. I am looking at another similar container which seems to be a tad bit wider to hold the spools that fit too tight or not at all in this lot of containers.

This is just right for 5 pounds of Wheat Berries, not as big as the picture seems.
When you order these, keep in mind that the picture makes them seem bigger than they are, and they ARE tapered at the base. They are nice, well made. For my Wheat Berries, for 5 pounds, these are just the right size, so I would expect 5 pounds of rice to fit in them nicely.They are fairly sturdy, not super thick plastic, but sturdy enough and have rubber like seals in the lid. The lid is a locking lid which is nice.If you have grain moths, these might help, but getting the moth traps, and cleaning thoroughly, is your best thing to do, and get these also. The grain moths do seem to get through plastic, I think nothing short of copper seals will keep them out.nevertheless, these are going to seal things pretty well from what I see so far, short of using glass wire jars I don't see how anything plastic could possibly be better. I'm happy with them though like I said, they aren't quite as large as the photos seem, read the dimensions in the listing and get a ruler and judge by that, it's not the fault of the ad, they tell you how big they are, it's just that judging by photos is tricky.I do recommend these.

Be sure to check that height will fit cupboards
Exactly what I was looking for.

Overall a good purchase
I wanted to buy some containers mostly for the kids cereal and so my cupboards look more organized. I found the ocal containers i had did not make great use of space as the bottoms were more narrow than the top.So I decided to go with a more "square" container. These feel sturdy and of good quality however what I don't like about them is that the opening is quite small so my kids complain because it's not an easy pour ( I find it a bit annoying too although I am more patient) especially with cereal like mini wheat which are larger. As you can see in the pic I store them right side up and upside down alternately because the lids cause the container to be wider on the too than the bottom. Back to square one but for now we are going with it. I do love the labels and white marker that came with them. They make my jars look amazing!

Cheap quality
The lids are cheap quality and I am expecting them to break after a couple use. Trying to put the lids on the first time felt like they were going to snap.
