Review on Prepara Evak Airtight Kitchen Food Storage Glass Container For Organization Of Herbs, Nuts, Bagels, And Other Dry Goods, Medium, Gloss Black by Jeff Perez

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Perfect storage for coffee (ground or beans)

I first discovered this at Target and on a whim, or the clever manufacturers design work doing funny things to my brain, I took one home. That was about 5 years ago but then, on a dark, stormy night. the glass portion slid off, out of soapy hands and felt the full force of the kitchen floor as gravity sent it descending down, down . and down. CRASH . (end scene) tragic day, I know.I think the glass gives this a nice, distinctive quality over anything made of plastic, but as you’ve read, one bad move and you’ll end up cleaning shards of glass, which to be fair was just user error and has nothing to do with bad craftsmanship. Keep this in mind if you have kids or have butterfingers like me.Still, I liked it so much that I bought a new one, this time off Ebay and peace has been restored to coffee beans everywhere (my kitchen).Bottom line: stylish, keeps coffee fresh, easy to see when a refill is needed, and the lid goes on and off with just the right amount of pressure - it hasn’t felt like the glass is about to shatter as some have mentioned. I’m not saying some units may not have an issue, but (knock on wood), no issues with mine.

Pros
  • Perfect for storing bulk dry goods, like rice or flour
Cons
  • The container may not be dishwasher safe
