how good is this for keeping the contents smell out ?

I would say that this Storage Container is really good. Although a complete seal fails, a negative pressure is achieved within obviously not allowing odors out

The smell of the coffee is contained within the vessel. When the container is opened, the warm, pleasant odor of fresh coffee fills the room. The mouth begins to salivate and the brain slowly begins its ascent from the depths of sleep.No smells from the outside have penetrated the walls of this cannister. At least none that I've noticed.

We don't use it for that. But the vacuum "seal" very effectively keeps coffee from drying out and we don't smell ground coffee when it is sealed inside.

The smell is not a problem to me, it goes away quickly. For a washer or dryer they should work pretty good. I was using them for a roof-mounted air conditioning unit and they helped a lot.

I don't think you will have a problem with the smell. The bottom container holds about 1/2 cup while the other two containers hold about 1/4 each.

I purchased this item primarily for spray painting. Seems to at least keep the smell of the paint oder out so I think it works. For keeping the dust out I would say mosst likely....

I have had this can as my kitchen trash can for probably 10 years. Like others have said, if it's something really stinky (i.e. cantaloupe rinds, rotten tomatoes, etc.) I just take out the bag, anyway. Even a can with lid won't keep those odors contained, though. I've never noticed more smell from this than when I had the plastic cans with the lids. The other option for this can is that you could (if you were so inclined) use a Stick-Up or other air freshener on the underside of the curved lid.

YES! I keep my smelly grass in it and you cannot smell anything. But once you open it up, the stank is released. It is a must buy.

I wouldn't use it period. It doesn't keep the smell in at all. I hope this helps.

I just rinse it out weekly with a soap and water, works fine for me. I haven't had an issue with odor

Yes, I have not had any odor issues. I guess when it swings open, the smell could escape, but it closes nicely.

So far, I have not noticed any smell. I am satisfied with the product, particularly the fact the door can be opened on either the right or left.

This product is safe and easy to use. If it's organic matter causing the smell, this will work well. If it's more than just organic matter, you can use a liquid snake drain cleaner to loosen everything up followed by this one.

I have installed this can in several locations i.e. office kitchen, office building bathrooms and have never noticed any smell. But if it were to be used for everyday kitchen use, perhaps one with a lid would be better. Nice clean look.

I gave mine as gift to my daughter in law, all I know is she uses it everyday before she goes off to work and she works closely with people so I would think any odor would bother her.

Yes, but... I used it in the garage, where it worked well, since the garage concentrated the smell. Outside you would have to use a lot on open ground, but if you poured it in a mousehole, etc., it would probably do a good job.

I don't believe it will make the smell disappear. It will cover it up for a while.

I have not had any problems with smell. However, I do empty it every day or every other day depending on quantity.

I didn't buy one and it keeps the odor in. I use the garage for a diaper pail too and I just spray lysol whenever I change the bag. And I really just do it to keep it clean not because of a smell.
