I previously had round containers in my cupboards. So now I switched to these modular containers.Not only am I saving over 50% space in my cupboards, but these stack up neatly and you can find whatever you need by just looking at the see thru containers. The real BIG bonus is there is only ONE size lid that fits all 4 of these containers! No more matching up different sizes of lids.
To give you a few more ideas to the already mention in previous reviews, as to what fits in these containers--In the 21 cup, 1 lb. 11oz of cheerios fits to the brim as well as 5 packs of Nabisco saltines(loose), 4lbs OreIda crinkle fries as well as 10 lbs of sugar. In the 16 cup, 5 lb flour fits easily plus I have my scoop in there, 72 oz of chocolate chips fits in the 10 cup, 5 cup is my slightly less than 2 lb brown sugar!
I got this with free two day shipping with prime and this is a great price. Some reviewers said that Walmart is cheaper. Well...I checked and it is exactly the same price to the penny so I prefer Amazon shopping and had it delivered in no time flat. My intentions were only to get a 3 sets and be done with it. Well... I am picking up another 4 sets tonight. I'm reorganizing my whole kitchen and I'm just amazed at how much space I have and how easy to find anything in my cupboards. These are high quality containers.
UPDATE:6/5/2013--I'm really loving the organization of having these containers. I now owned a total of 7 sets and seriously thinking of ordering some more. I'm now using them in my upright freezer!
UPDATE:9/26/2013--
I read a review that said it was NOT airtight and he/she did the water leaktest and leaked. I was surprised to read this so I did the same water test. Filled the container to the top with water and turned it upside down. NOT ONE DRIP OF WATER LEAKED. I still swear by these containers as i now have 8 sets and looking to get some 5 cups and 10 cups sizes.

Super efficient use of space! Buy at WalMart for cheaper price though!
I LOVE these! I had my eye on modular canisters from Tupperware, but this set is a much more affordable option!Trying to plan the sizes you'll need? Here's what I wish I could have read in someone else's review... What fits in each size?- 21 cup - Flour. Also the huge oatmeal package from Sams (though there's a bit more than 21 cups of it).- 16 cup - Sugars (white, powdered, brown... they all have a bit of room to spare so you can refill the container before you're all the way out!), Misc. bulk items I buy, like noodles. Also if I make a bunch of cookies.- 10 cup Misc. items like chow mein noodles or croutons. I don't use this size as much.- 5 cup - Carnation Instant Breakfast (I buy it in the can b/c it's cheaper & the whole can's worth will fit in here), 24 oz container of raisins, one package of oreos (minus a couple I eat while filling it), other misc. snacks.I also have our playdough toys in one of them b/c we always play them in the kitchen and putting them in a canister makes them take up the least space in my cabinet! And I'm going to be using some for craft supplies too. It's surprising how much fits in them, a lot of the time I needed a smaller canister than what I would have guessed b/c the shape of them makes a big difference and they fit a lot more in them than you may think. If you buy them at WalMart, I recommend buying more than you think you'll need and then returning the left overs b/c you really don't know til you start filling stuff up what size you'll need on a lot of the misc. stuff. But if all you want them for is flour and sugar, then just get the 21 cup & 16 cup.Here's what I like about them:- They are nice & have a good seal- Lids aren't hard to get on or off, but they do seal well.- They stack easliy- Their shape is great & makes SUCH efficient use of your shelf space that you can fit way more into your cabinets!- They are way more reasonably priced than comparable Tupperware modular storageFYI- I got this set at WalMart for only $15!!!!!!! So check your WalMart before buying them on Amazon. WM also sells the individual pieces way cheap too.

I ordered two sets of these, and then promptly came back to Amazon to order two more sets each of the 5-cup and 10-cup containers. These are fantastic for organizing your pantry!
I wasn't sure if the various sizes in this set would work, but they've been great for me. I tend to keep various kinds of flours (like garbanzo bean flour, tapioca flour, spelt flour, etc.) on hand, and had been keeping the bags they came in inside Ziplocks that were then kept in bins. The result was a pantry where it was hard to see what I had and the flours didn't seem to be staying fresh. These containers make everything easily accessible, and the stacking nature of them works well. I've attached some before and after photos of the two sides of my pantry so you can see the difference.
The large size holds big bags of flour and sugar (in the first photo, you can see that a 4-pound bag of almond flour fills about 3/4 of the 21-cup container), and the smaller ones are perfect for smaller amounts of items.
These are really nice, and I appreciate the fact that they are BPA-free as well.

The lids on these containers fit snugly, and the different sizes work really well for me. In fact, I like them so well I ended up buying 4 sets, and will likely buy more.
They look so neat and tidy in the cupboard, and are useful for so many things, not just flour and cereal.
