The best storage containers I have found
»
My wife has used the ones from Target (the Michael Graves design). We like them fine; there's nothing wrong with them functionally, but we both prefer these OXO containers. We now have one of each size and will not be looking elsewhere. The OXO is perfect.
The design is just excellent. Pop the button out and the lid lifts off easily. The lid seal is easy to remove and clean, although that will not be happening often in my house, because I'm using them to store dry goods only (cereal, chips, nuts, etceteras).
Replace the lid, pop the button in, and the lid seals perfectly and will NOT come off accidentally.
They are stackable and their square shape uses our space very efficiently. Their shape is also better for dumping out cereal into your bowl. As a bonus, they even look nice; you would be happy to have these in plain sight.
In short, like all OXO Good Grips products, this one is great. It's what you want.

Very nice pantry addition
»
I recently bought over a dozen of these Oxo containers in various sizes, and am so far quite pleased with them. Only two minor negatives:
* one unit arrived cracked (Amazon quickly and painlessly replaced it).
* And the volume of the small units is a bit deceptive. They hold less than you might think from the photographs because the top extends down into the canister more than you might guess. Once I realized this, I simply opted for slightly taller ones.
Several positives:
* they're clear, so you can see what's in them. Obvious enough, but a significant improvement over my older canisters. No need for labels.
* they seal and unseal well and effortlessly with one hand.
* the seal is tight enough to keep out bugs (unlike the ones I was using and my driving motivation to buy these).
* they come in enough sizes such that I can accommodate all of my staples with the right size canister.
* they're stackable, which makes combining sizes even easier if you stick with one or two footprints, making efficient use of pantry shelf space.
I'll be buying more as the need arises.

Tight seal

The air-tight seal really is air-tight, and it's very easy to remove/replace the lid. I love this container!
