Classic Rectangle 470 ml Airtight Food Storage Container with Lid

bought 16kg of doves gluten free plain flour, The flour in all fairness should of been ok in the paper sack that it was sold in, but to keep as fresh as is possible decided to buy some lock and lock to decant the whole bag into. Decanting into lock and lock meant could store in different places in case exceeded the shelf safe working weight capacity. We had 7 litres caddy's with wheels on back which have lasted years so much so they do not seem available any more have been happy with their performance specially after finding critters had been in the cupboard unable to eat anything. deciding on size was some penguin maths, in the end it was guessing if 7 litres holds 2 large bags of sugar, what does 12 litres hold? we had 3 x1kg bags in a box of so many litres and calculated needed 2 x 12 litres what ever was left would go into another container we already had. The lock and lock boxes were to be delivered July 24th Amazon delivered yesterday which was fantastic. -de stickered and dish washed then stickers added back on, the draining plastic thing was not put back in -Filling we used a UK baking 1 cup measure, adding 5 cups of flour to a jug filled it level to top, 5 cups weighed 1kg on the olde spring human weight scales which were zero'd with the empty 12 litre lock and lock on, lid removed 8 jugs = 40 cups = 8kg of gluten free plain flour went into the 12 litre container with an Half inch to spare. 2 x 12 litre containers held 16kg of doves plain gluten free flour. Even with the penguin math, until it all went into the 2 containers we were unsure whether it would all fit. The lid has a fold down handle, am not going to use it with 8kg inside fear it would break. I feel certain the flour will not spoil with changes in temperature and humidity now its in the lock and lock. hope above helps. The lid fit is secure with the seal. the box is large. Its idea for crafters to retreat with, batch bakers, using the lid as a base, if you buy bulk, anything you want to keep dry and fresh.

Guess what I use mine for. Cheese Gromit. Exact size for 400gr cheese block. Perfect container. Job done.

Good containers, slowly replacing cheap ones with this brand

I was looking for a non-leaking lunch box and bought this as many previous reviewers said it was the perfect size. Top marks for not leaking. However, I must eat more than the average as I think it's really small for a lunch box. Anyway, as I'm too tight to buy a new one I packed my lunch in it and after a few weeks I have lost weight. Perfect for those on a diet!

Lock & Lock are the best in the market and I wouldn't buy any other brand now. This 12 litre size is 31.5 x 23.1 x 23.1, cms which is easily big enough for a very large chicken or 2 loaves of bread. They are BPA-free, dishwasher (top shelf) safe, and microwave (re-heating only) safe. I have just bought four more of this 12 litre size to store precious cashmere knitwear in because I am sick of moths chewing their way through hundreds of pounds of cashmere and it's quick and easy to chuck a jumper or gloves and scarf into one of these.. The seal is so good on Lock & Lock that no moth, however determined, can get through. I also store my bread flour in one of these. It fits four of my 1.5 kilo bags. Keeps it really fresh and dry. Worth noting that you can buy this size for £15.30 at Mahahome website. I don't think any one would ever regret buying Lock & Lock. They last for decades.

I absolutely love lock n lock containers. I have loads of them. They are sturdy, watertight and well made. I bought this container back in 2017. It still works as well now as it did back then. I have 2 of these boxes. One holds my gardening tools and the other one holds all my light bulbs, batteries and candles.

Perfect size for intended purpose. Lock nice and tight. Great price

I bought one of these nearly two years ago. Specifically, for decanting those huge XXL (5KG) boxes of washing power into. Works perfectly, completely air-tight, so the power doesn't end up in one solid lump after a couple of weeks! I wish I had done this years ago, would have saved me no end of trouble. I no longer need to dig into the box with a large fork to break up the powder! Stays fresh and power-like in this air-tight container for months and months.

Lo uso per la farina e contiene due pacchi da due chili più un pacco da chilo. È pratico perché ottimizza lo spazio nello scaffale grazie alla sua forma di parallelepipedo. Ottima l'idea della griglia sul fondo per evitare i ristagni d'aria. Se proprio proprio bisogna trovare un difetto è quello che lavandolo è difficile asciugarlo completamente perché l'acqua rimane tra le pieghe della plastica e sulle cerniere della maniglia. In complesso il giudizio è comunque molto positivo.

Excellent product, just could be priced a bit cheaper.

I first found Lock & Lock from a supermarket in the UK and have been using several of their products for quite sometime. I use them for storing food in the refrigerator/freezer and also to warm them in microwave. I found that they are of good quality, leak proof and also durable. This is my first purchase of Lock & Lock products from India and the quality of the products are exactly the same as I had experienced. I believe they will last long. These are like the tupperware products. Expensive, but good quality.

Tout parfait, pratique, parfaitement hermétique, simple d'utilisation avec ses 4 rabats. Je ne commande plus que cette marque pour tout conserver maintenant. Un peu cher certes mais ca vaut le coup
