Review on ๐Ÿ”’ Kilovac - 8 oz to 2.5 lbs Airtight Multi-Use Vacuum Seal Portable Storage Container for Dry Goods, Food, and Herbs - Solid Black by James Notti

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Love at first use, but not for long.

I've had it for almost two years. I liked him a lot at first, but not for long. For those who don't have one, there are two steps to opening the canister. First you have to press the button to break this vacuum seal. Second, you must rotate the lid from the closed position to the open position before removing the lid. It held up well and was easy to open. At the time, I would rate it five stars. After about 10 months of daily use, the lid started to "stick" and it became very difficult to rotate the lid to the unlocked position. After a while the lid cracked. Possibly due to the pressure I applied to force the lid to rotate to the "open" position. Now I can only open and close with brute force. I don't care about it anymore as it's already cracked. It still holds the seal and I will continue to use it until it stops working, but I will be replacing it with another, more durable product.

Pros
  • Holds up to 2.2 pounds of coffee or 5 pounds of dry food; Storage varies by item
Cons
  • Older model
