I received this set of containers from my morpther-in-law this last Christmas. I was incredibly happy when I unwrapped my gift and seen that it was this brand of containers. So far I have stored coffee beans in one of them, and each morning when I unseal the container that's completely air tight, the coffee beans smell amazing everytime! Because these are so simple to seal with just the push of the button on top of the container my husband and I get to have fresh coffee beans to grind into grounds for our coffee every morning, and believe me the freshness makes a huge difference in taste. I have also stored dry spaghetti noodles in the second one, and of course I don't have to worry about my noodles getting stale because of the easy to push button that seals it up on top of each container. With the last three containers I have sugar in one, that I don't have to worry about bugs/ants getting in. The fourth container has dry cereal, and having the cereal I. This container looks so much better then the boxes that it comes in from the store, that don't close right and also doesn't keep it air tight. For the last container I have put tea bags in it, because I usto just leave the tea bags in the box they came in, but I started to notice a weird bitter taste after about a week after purchasing my tea bags. But now since I have been using these amazing air tight containers to put the tea bags in I haven't tasted that unpleasant bitter taste in my tea. I highly recommend these OXO 5 Piece POP Container Set, they look nice and go with just about any style kitchen, they are simple to clean, they also have a simple push button to keep whatever you have in the containers seal in air tight. Check them out! This is a great product/brand from keeping you foods in air tight storage containers.

I have always had trouble with airtight containers in my pantry. The marshmallows would get sticky, the brown sugar would turn hard as a rock and the regular sugar would clump up. I needed real airtight containers, not ones that just said they were and then actually weren't. I finally bought the OXO containers, they are more expensive but they are worth every penny! The lid and gasket mechanism works perfectly and keeps the air out so that the food inside stays fresher longer. My brown sugar rarely has clumps in it and I know that the food is fresh. I love that you know that the lid is on right as you push the round button down on the top of the lid. It gives me peace of mind that it is sealed tightly!

I consider myself a budget shopper and very seldom ever splurge on quality items such as storage containers. Over the years I have probably bought at least a hundred cheap plastic containers, that eventually get thrown away after a few months. I was given a set of OXO POP Container Set for Christmas a few years ago. I wasn't familiar with the brand and didn't realize at the time how great these containers are. This set comes with a variety of sizes, 1 large, 2 medium and 2 small. I have to stress at how airtight this container is once the button on the lid is pushed. The pop up button serves as a handle to open the seal, and the sides are rounded to make pouring easy. My pantry is no longer a huge clutter, I am able to see through the container and they stack nicely. I have saved money on cereal and bread using the larger container, at one time I was throwing away cereal at least once a week from the kids forgetting to close the box. No longer does this happen.I can see these containers lasting for years, the quality is high, I really wish I would've considered them years ago, because in the long run I will save money.I have purchased another set, and the containers are sold individually, I prefer the larger ones personally and they cost a little less than the smaller containers. No longer do I use cheap plastic containers unless they are meant to be thrown away.

I purchased these at Bed Bath and Beyond thinking they could replace my current set of Tupperware containers but there is really no comparison. These are just as expensive, if not more so, at about $45 for the set of five containers and five lids. I did like that they are rectangular so they really use the cabinet space in the very best way, as opposed to other brands with more oval shapes. They stack very nicely and do not fall over in the cupboard which is very, very nice. What I didn't like was the pop up buttons. You press on them to remove the lid instead of having tabs to lift the lid and I found them incredibly annoying to press them. They are easier to get on and off than traditional lids, but if you have long nails it quickly becomes a problem to press them properly. I also really, really did not like that they are not microwave or dishwasher safe which makes them not quite as functional for me. Overall, these are a good option for someone who does not like Tupperware but I can't really recommend them.

I have been using OXO POP Containers for quite some time now and can't see myself using another container for storage. I fell in love with the wide mouth containers because it makes it very easy for me to reach the bottom of the container without contorting my hand or scraping my knuckles against the sides. Also because of the wide shape and smooth angles of the containers it makes cleaning them by hand a simple task, but I have placed them in the dishwasher and had great results. Since I started using these containers I have noticed that my dry goods have stayed fresher much longer than previous when I was using glass containers with metal lids. The air tight seal is remarkable and I can't even smell the contents of the container until I open it. Even though the lid does a great job of sealing the contents inside the button on top makes it very easy for me to open the lid without any struggle. I would definitely recommend OXO POP Containers because they keep food fresh longer, they're stackable, which makes them a space saver, and they appear to last forever.

I live in a very small home. The actual area in my kitchen where I store and prepare food is very tiny. This always makes it hard to store stuff in an organized manner. Things get piled on top of other things in my cupboards and it is difficult to see everything. These OXO 5pc. Containers helped greatly in getting things under control. They are perfectly see through so you don't have to guess what's in them or label them unless you want to. I love the shape and style of these containers. They stack and nest with each other nicely. There are three different sizes in this set which gives you some choices in what fits with what better. The lids are air-tight and come on and off with ease. OXO also makes other containers you can buy individually to add to the organization of items. Yes these are more pricey than some food storage containers you can pick up in any store but I feel they are designed well, sturdy, and worth the price.

I have a habit of buying containers again and again as they can be useful anytime. This container set was purchased some time back and the set arrived within a week of purchasing it online. The set consists of 5 containers of different sizes and a pop up that can be used as a handle. I usually store cookies and some spices in the small containers and in the big one, I store ready-to-eat chips or snacks which my children love to munch on. The best thing about these containers is that, even if they fall to the floor, they don't crack nor do the spices fall as the lid protects the food item and keeps them as fresh as when they were stored in it. The food does not even have any kind of odor or a change in taste and the chips remain fresh. It's easy to wash these containers. The containers easily fit in my small cupboard and I just take it off and serve my kids with snacks. When the snacks or food items get over, I wash the containers and wipe it clean to let off the odor of the snack that was filled in the container and then it's ready to use again.

These containers are simply amazing! Over the years, I have tried Tupperware, Rubbermaid and many other inferior storage systems! I was never happy with any other brands until I found the Oxo brand. I have struggled with cereal containers that are never shut and sealed correctly causing me to throw away countless boxes of stale cereal! I no longer have that problem with these containers. I love the fact that they are clear and therefore easy to see what is stored within them. They are also lightweight and easy to open which is nice when you have children in the house. I have also found that they are very compact and they fit together well which is a real space saver! These containers have virtually endless possibilities for storing not only food, but household items. My husband even requested another set for the garage to hold nails and other tools. I highly recommend these storage containers to anyone who wants to feel more organized, save space in their cupboards, and keep food fresher! I have already purchased two five piece sets and I plan to buy many more in the future! I just keep finding more uses for the OXO storage containers!

We really like this set of 5 containers. Its great for the kitchen to keep things organized, fresh and looking nice. Convenient for when you have a small amount of something left and don't want to leave it in the bag where it might get stale or spill all over. These containers are easy to set up and have things looking nice in no time. Its great to buy two sets of them as you can have endless things to add to these containers. They are also great for the bathroom to use for cutips, cotton balls, kleenex, makeup, hair things, pretty much anything. Just use your imagination. I really like them because they keep things neat and fresh and you don't have to deal with things getting spilled all over the place.

When we purchased our new camper, I knew that these containers were a must have. I like to keep a tote filled with necessities for our camping trips (pancake mix, sugar, tea, coffee, etc) always packed and ready to go. I use these wonderful storage containers for all of my dry goods. I love them because, unlike most containers, the lids lock into place. You can trust the seal on the locks, too. they keep food fresher for longer periods of time because they seal so nicely and they keep bugs out as well. I actually liked these containers so much that I purchased a second set to keep in my kitchen as well. I keep flour, sugar, and such in my kitchen on top of my counter and then I also have another set that we keep candy, cookies, and other goodies in that stay in the pantry. They keep everything organized and they look great. They are as beautiful as they are functional. I like that they are clear, so you can see what is inside. I like to put a sticker on the top of mine with the date so that I know when I placed the food into the container and can make sure it is fresh. These containers are a little pricier than other containers that you can find at local retailers, but they are well worth the investment. I can see them lasting for a really long time. I would definitely recommend these to anyone and can say that they make a wonderful addition to the camper or to take on camping trips!
