Review on Black Granrosi Kitchen Canisters - Set Of 4 Airtight Food Storage Containers For Pantry And Countertops, Ideal Flour And Sugar Containers With Canister Sets For Efficient Kitchen Storage by Johnnie Trimble

Onion Canister Is Too Small

I purchased this canister set several months ago and I used it to get my potatoes and onions off the kitchen floor and onto the counter top. The canisters are a good idea but I hoped for a larger onion canister. The potato canister can comfortably hold five or six pounds of potatoes and the garlic canister is plenty large enough to hold 15 medium sized garlic bulbs. However, the onion canister is too small to hold three pounds of onions.I cook with more onions than garlic and I usually purchase three pound bags of onions. As shown in my pictures, three pounds of onions consists of eight individuals. With three pounds in the onion container, I can not place the lid. The onion container is best suited for 1.5 or 2 pounds maximum.I don't want a floor storage unit because I don't want to clutter up my kitchen floor. I am sticking with this canister set until I find one larger. I work around by storing excess onions in another location but that defeats the organizational purpose for which I bought these canisters.Another thing that I found annoying about this set is the fact that the words "Vintage Storage" appear on the front of all canisters. It does not appear to be vintage if it is labeled as such. That labeling detracts from the charm of the product and I regard this as marketing overkill.This set can be a good value if you do not wish to store more than two pounds of onions and you don't mind having canisters that constantly remind everyone that they are not really vintage.If the vintage labels are removed and the onion canister is made large enough to hold a 3 pound bag of onions, I will repurchase this product and give it 5 stars.

Pros
  • All canisters are good size and tight. Very attractive in my kitchen.
Cons
  • The black color may make it difficult to see the contents inside without opening them all the way

It is too small . The potato bin should have been bigger and the one sent could be used for the onion. The one for the onion should have been for the garlic.
