How much does each jar hold?

Each jar holds 68 fl oz, about half a gallon, or roughly 8.5 cups. That is enough for a standard bag of flour or a large box of cereal.

Are the lids really airtight?

The lids are designed to seal airtight to keep dry goods fresh. Check the gasket sits clean and flat, and replace it if it hardens or tears.

The glass bodies are generally dishwasher safe on a normal cycle. Hand wash the lids and gaskets to protect the seal.

They can hold liquids, but the wide mouth and large size make pouring awkward and heavy when full. They work best for dry goods.

These hold twice as much per jar, so you refill less often. They are heavier and taller, so measure your shelf clearance first.
