OXO Good Grips® POP 4.4 qt. Square Big Food Storage Container

I recently bought four of these containers in different sizes for flour, sugar, icing sugar, and brown sugar. Happy with them generally except it isn’t airtight enough to store the brown sugar. My brown sugar got so hard I had to chip at it to break it up and throw it out. I am now using a ziploc bag inside the container to keep my brown sugar workable.

As some may or may not know, OXO recently changed the design of these containers, and they are no longer as good as they once were. The new design slims everything down, including a complete redesign of the lids. Slimming the containers is great, but these lids are no longer air tight and food goes stale quickly. You’re better off using a ziplock bag. OXO needs to swap the kids back to the older design that wouldn’t slide out when you hold the lid. These wouldn’t be effective even if they were $3 each.

I've had these for a 7 years and they are i perfect shape. I even washed them i. The dishwasher and they are good as new. I love that i am able to keep my pantry organized and in order.

Great product, seals well and keeps food fresh

These containers have proven to be secure and easy to use. The clear plastic makes it easier to see what is inside, it’s also dishwasher safe.

Wanted air-tight container for sugar and this works well

I've had the full set of these containers for several years and I love them but I needed more. Whatever they did to change this version is very disappointing. They are thinner, and do not seal as good as the older ones do. I regret buying them. Won't happen again.

See photo. Can see the gaps in where the grey seal should be coming into contact with the clear plastic. The lids slide off when "locked" with minimal force, and how poorly they seal ranges on each unit- some give more resistant than others. There's no way these are actually airtight or consistent in manufacturing. Received units all scratched up in my order, as well. Get something else, these really are no good.
