Sistema Cereal Food Storage Container with Flip Top Spout, Dishwasher Safe, 17.75-Cup, Clear/Blue

LOVE THESE! I use these for granola and they work perfectly. I looked in our pantry and we had about 10 boxes/bags of granola, most of the duplicates. When they go on sale or I have a coupon, I stock up. I found that one of these holds about 3-4 regular boxes/bags of granola. I'm talking the regular size boxes, not family packs or Costco-size. For cereal, I found that it holds almost one of the big family-size boxes. The seal works really well, and everything has stayed fresh, even the containers we don't eat out of that often. The spout size is perfect for cereal, perhaps a little big for granola. I measure my granola as I'm pouring it into my bowl and I just have to make sure I have the bowl underneath since it is a larger pouring area. My daughter pours hers straight into the bowl, so she doesn't have any issues. My pantry looks so organized now. I even printed labels to show which granola is which since some of them look the same. Great product!

My search for a container for storing dry cat food in the Pets category was unsuccessful - everything was too big, too hard to clean, too expensive, etc. I then searched in the cereal storage kitchen category and found just what I was looking for with this Sistema product. It's the perfect size; it accommodates a 4-lb of dry food and a small scoop. The cover snaps on easily and tightly, so it keeps the food fresh. One side is contoured, which makes it easy to pick up and handle the container. It's easy to wash. And, surprise of surprises. this product is made in NEW ZEALAND! I've never owned a New Zealand-made product before. The quality is impressive. I give five stars to this container and, based on my experience with this one, will check out the other products in the Sistema line.

I have four teenagers at home who eat mountains of cereal. I have bought and thrown away probably a dozen plastic cereal containers over the years, due to various issues- too small, top heavy, loose lids, etc. These are not only my favorites, they're the first containers I've been happy with! I've ordered two of these in the larger size, and I will probably buy a few more. What I like: The lids remove easily but fasten firmly. They sit snugly together on the shelf, unlike so many models that inexplicably bulge outward on the sides. They don't get top heavy and fall over- and if they do get knocked over, the dispenser flaps are well attached and don't flop open. The large size holds quite a bit of cereal, which is a godsend if you buy bulk or warehouse sizes or mix cereals. They are large enough to drop the bags into, if that's your preference. I did see one comment about a plastic smell, and I have to say I have not noticed this.

Keeps cereal from going stale: We like to buy our cereal in bulk at Sams Club. These cereal containers are large enough to hold a box of my Special K and hold all but two good-sized bowls of Honey Nut Cheerios (those boxes are ridiculously huge). I highly recommend getting these if you don't go through your cereal really fast - it keeps the cereal from going stale for so much longer! I'm mildly lactose intolerant so I don't eat cereal a lot. Now that we have these, I can buy whatever cereal I want (instead of having to share with Hubster) because I know I have a month or more as opposed to a week or two to finish it off. Perfect size for storing: We use closetmaid Cubeicals as a backup storage in our utility room and I keep two of these on their skinny sides with the fliptop facing up - they fit great! Love the secure lid and pouring spout: Since its a Klip It, you don't have to worry about it falling off while up-ending the container to get all the contents. I also really like the pouring lid. It is not too wide at all, so it pours neatly into our cereal bowls. I don't have kids, but I think that having the more narrow spout would really help with their accuracy. I know other reviews have stated it worked well with their kids. I imagine having a clip top helps a lot with kids too. Doesn't explode if you drop it: I'm a klutz and totally have dropped it on the floor, full, more than once. It did not crack, the seal is fine, and nothing opened causing any spills. The only con I have is that I would never put this in the dishwasher so the seal stays as great as it is now. That's a little annoying, but you're not going to be washing it super often anyway.

These just arrived, on a SUNDAY, amazing delivery service. The 2 containers are so beautifully designed, could not wait to use them. My dishwasher is packed full and in use so I just pulled the store brand honey nut toasted oats bag out of the box and put it in the new container immediately. Had 1 unopened package of all purpose flour still on the kitchen counter waiting for space in the pantry so I grabbed a clean produce bag, tucked it inside the 2nd container and poured all 5 pounds of flour in easily. Plenty of room to spare in each container. To those reviewers who struggle with getting the contents to fit into containers, you need to pour your product in SEGMENTS, don’t try to dump it in all at once. I pour flour as masa blend flour in 4 segments, carefully tamping the bottom of the container firmly on a hard surface (I use the sink). Gave this order 4 stars for now but will probably elevate this review after using for a while. Very pleased to see that the containers were manufactured in New Zealand. In my opinion, Sistema is a reliable Company. Several years ago, I bought their Sistema soup mug that has the 4 clips on the lid with a pop open steam vent, however, it’s for warming soup in the microwave. I gave away my huge high power microwave a few weeks ago.

Fits perfectly in pantry and keeps items fresh.

Nachdem wir immer wieder pappige und zusammengeklebte Cornfalkes in den Schachteln hatte, haben wir uns für diese Behälter entschieden. Seitdem sind diese immer frisch und knackig!

J'ai acheté cette boîte pour conserver les croquettes de mon chat parce que j'achète des sacs de 10 kilos très peu maniables au quotidien et elle est très pratique. La contenance est idéale, elle est grande mais pas au point d'être trop lourde une fois remplie, l'encoche est très utile pour l'avoir bien en main quand on verse et la petite ouverture sur le dessus fait bien son office dans ce cas tandis qu'on peut l'ouvrir complètement pour la remplir. Rapport qualité prix excellent, elle fait très robuste. Rien à redire !

Also takes up less room when storing them with other Sistema Containers (versus other containers with a less boxy design that create a lot of wasted space when placed side-by-side)

I prodotti Sistema sono una garanzia! Acquistato per i fiocchi d'avena, ne riesco ad inserire tranquillamente 4 pacchi da 1kg. Lo sportellino dosatore è una enorme comodità così come è utilissimo, vista la capienza del contenitore, l'impugnatura leggermente più stretta presente su un lato. Assolutamente consigliato.

Wesentlich besser als Tupperware, welche ich überhaupt nicht mag! Super einfaches Klick-Sticksystem am Deckel. Schüttöffnung perfekt für Müsli, welches auch gröber sein kann, da die Öffnung groß genug ist und aber dennoch super dicht verschließt, auch wenn die Dose dank des Juniors mal Kopf steht ;-) (was man bei Tupperware nicht immer sagen kann) Ich bin völlig überzeugt und kaufe gerne wieder :-)
