Customer Reviews:

Item not as described
I received these items today and was greatly disappointed. The reason I purchased them was the item description said they had screw on lids. THEY DO NOT! The lids simply sit on top of the canister. They do have a rubber seal, but the lids don’t fit tightly enough to have the rubber seal make a difference. The size of the canisters is okay. Not that big, not that small. Why doesn’t anyone make a huge storage container that looks nice?

I’m greatly disappointed and will most likely be returning.

Canisters store but not air or bug proof
The seals are not air or water tight. There is no problem with the cansiter or the clear window, but I cannot store any flour or rice type products as the seals are not airtight and allow bugs in them. The canisters themselves do not rust and the lids are not easy to remove

I can’t complain!
I was pleased with these canisters. The lids do not screw on but seem to be airtight with the rubber seal. The only complaint I have is that they appeared to be shiny in the photo, but are actually brushed stainless.

Amazon.com Review
Keep flour, oats, coffee grinds, sugar, and other essential kitchen staples fresh in these attractive canisters from Polder. The three-piece set includes 2-, 3-, and 4-quart canisters with a sleek, durable, stainless steel design that complements any kitchen décor.

Oval-shaped, acrylic windows allow cooks to identify contents and assess supply levels at a glance. Lids snap on tightly, keeping dust, liquid, germs, and household pests out while maintaining food quality. An airtight seal also keeps aromas–like the rich scent of coffee beans–contained.

The set is dishwasher-safe–though hand drying and stainless-steel polish will help eradicate water spots while preserving shine. The 2-quart canister stands 6-1/2 inches high with a 5-inch diameter, the 3-quart is 8 inches high with a 5-3/4-inch diameter, and the 4-quart reaches 9-1/4 inches high with a 6-inch diameter. –Jessica Reuling
