Anchor Hocking 1.5 Gallon Montana Glass Jar with Lid (2 piece, brushed metal, dishwasher safe)

Love this jar! It is airtight & looks fabulous on our counter.

I have been looking for an upgrade for storing my flour for some time (my old glass jar had a rather narrow neck that didn't fit a measuring cup). Out of all the options I looked at, this ended up being the best by far for the following reasons: 1. Glass is a better storage material than plastic (healthier and more durable). 2. The jar is very attractive. It looks classy in my cabinet. 3. Closing and opening the jar is easy with the large peg on the top (many jars have a flat-top design that needs to be gripped firmly with a whole hand, which is hard when your hands might be covered in various baking supplies). 4. The 1.5 gallon jar is a great size for a 5-lb bag of flour. There is some room to spare, but given that I buy new flour before I've totally run out of the previous bag, it will be nice to have some extra space. 5. The mouth of the jar is very wide and comfortably fits a full-size measuring cup. As a big bonus, the jar is American-made, and a terrific value for the money. Many stores sell flour jars that are way less practical than this, made in China, for $20-50.

If you’re trying to figure out what I could use to store my cat food, I stumbled onto these wonderful huge jars. And I mean huge. They are perfect for dry foods especially for any pet owners that want to keep their kibble in a safe environment that also will keep things fresh but don’t have any bad chemicals or leaching of plastics. These bad boys are also incredibly good looking and the stainless tops are lovely. Two quick things; the lids are not screw ones you just pick them up… I was a little confused as I thought they would be screwed ones but they have some type of vacuum apparatus where you just open and close it and it shuts down the air. And, these guys are incredibly heavy. So if you don’t like or don’t want to have to navigate heavy heavy jars, these may not be for you. I actually love the heft of the jars as they are very solidly made but I can see if you were going to be using them daily it may be a pain if you need to lift them up and down. I just use a stainless steel scoop for each jar that I have for each type of cat food and leave the jars in my pantry and just open them up and scoop out what I need so I don’t have to pick them up. But they are very very well-made and a perfect addition for what I need for the cat food. Highly recommended.

These heavy duty canisters work great for replacing old plastic canisters that have lids that have fallen apart and won’t seal any more.

I use this as my laundry detergent tub, it is sturdy lid stays on fine. Only thing the screw on the lid can come loose after a while but it is quite easy to tighten again.

I was very hesitant to order these jars because in some cases when you order anything glass, it comes broken or cracked. The packaging was so that it did not crack and in excellent condition. I was looking for something large enough that I can get a measuring cup inside and scoop my flour, sugar, etc without making a mess. I was scooping out my flour and sugar right out the bag and making a complete mess. This is large enough that I can not scoop right out and even level off the excess right back into the jar. I ordered two of these. One for the sugar and the other for flour. I ordered a 1.5 gallon one as well to put my brown sugar in it to keep it from getting hard. I am considering ordering more for my oatmeal, rice and beans. Good quality and has some weight to it. Once you feel it, you can tell it will not break easily in that if anything bump into it or something like that. Remember it is glass and will break if you drop it of course. But it is good quality and strong. I love it.

Nicely made, heavy and sturdy and fits 5lbs of in-shell peanuts perfectly

I have been slowly replacing all of my plastic storage containers and jars with glass over time and I got this size to use for tortilla chips and other similar crispy snacks. This one is the perfect size for a large 22 0z bag of chips with room to spare, The lid keeps air out very well and the contents stays fresh of a week or longer. It is a bit heavier and larger than some other models, but I consider that a good thing because it stays in place and the contents of the jar is easy to see. Might not be the best choice for someone with joint problems, but works just fine for me. Cleans easily with just dish soap and hot water, but care should be taken when cleaning because the size and shape makes handling when wet a bit of a challenge.

Lid does not seal on one jar. Plastics is too flimsy. Other than that is does what we need it to do.

So big! I use it to store flour, rice on my counter for easy access but it’s very big! But looks stunning and very good quality the seal is awesome it’s airtight for sure!

I have many of these and they are perfect for dry storage. I have larger ones for storing flour, rice, and coffee beans too and they look great in my open-style pantry. Worth the investment. 3 years on, and they are still in like-new condition.

Look nice, glass is not too heavy. This is what entice me to buy the container. But not sure if it air tight. It holds 900g of oats in the container, anymore will be too much.
