- Are these containers airtight?
- No. The lids rest on top but do not form an airtight seal, so they suit dry goods rather than freshness-critical foods.
- Can I use them for liquids?
- It is not recommended. The lids are not leakproof, so soups, sauces and dressings can spill.
- Are they dishwasher safe?
- Hand washing is the safer choice. High heat in a dishwasher can warp the plastic and loosen the lids.
- What can I store in them?
- Cereal, pasta, rice, snacks, coffee beans and small household items. They also work for craft supplies and office bits.
- How big is each container?
- Each is about 5.1 inches wide and 9.5 inches tall, a tall narrow rectangle that fits standard pantry shelves.
- Is the plastic BPA-free?
- Yes. Sorbus lists the containers as BPA-free plastic.
- Where is the Sorbus 4-Pack Clear Tall Rectangle Storage Containers cheapest?
- At The Home Depot, for $33.17, as of our latest check.
