Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

The size is nice for small bag of cat food, I am putting a 6 lb bag in. I had a large container before that we stored dog and cat food in but no longer have the dog so wanted to downsize. This product looked like the same type of container but is nothing like it. Perhaps the reviews that say it is good are for larger sizes. It is NOT airtight at all. The flip up latch does not increase the pressure on the lid to hold it tight. The 'seal' looks like styrofoam or a similar material. If you were to open the food and dump it in you would have bugs and stale food very quickly. I don't think I just 'got a bad one'. It is the way the product is made with a loose top and an ineffective seal. I keep my food in its original bag, closed inside. I put a container with weight on top to hold the lid down to the seal. So I am using it but will continue to look for a truly airtight container that I can count on to keep food fresh even if I didn't close the bag good.
