Don't know. They were a gift. Not too pleased with the quality for the money.

These are lightweight containers. If you put 5 pounds of flour in it, it won't weigh much over five pounds.

You can keep flour (5lb) in its original bag in the 4 quart. I tried it today.

The largest is 7"6.5 wide. Sugar is 6.55.5 and down from there incrementialy. Love that I can finally hold a decent amt of flour and sugar.

I doubt it. I would go to the next size up which would be the 17 cup size. I also have those and use them for 5 pounds of sugar and flour. The 5 pounds of flour fills the 17 cup size almost to the very top, and there is a little more room left over on the one I use for 5 pounds of sugar. I use the 10.8 cup size for powdered sugar.

The 1 1/2 gallon is huge. It would probably hold 7-8 lbs of flour. It definitely holds a 5 lb bag VERY comfortably!

The largest canister holds a 5 lb. bag of flour and the next largest holds a 5 lb. bag of sugar.

The large one holds a bag of flour. I think the middle holds 3 lbs - I have oatmeal in mine as we don't use sugar. Don't know about the little one as I have tea bags in it.

I purchased the 4.3 quart (135 1/4 ounce) and it is certainly big enough to hold a 5 lb bag of flour. It is really quite large... I use it in the refrigerator to keep my oil for deep frying clean and chilled. I have a deep fryer that takes two full bottles of vegetable oil and storing that in this container only fills it up to about halfway. I just can't imagine that you couldn't get the flour in there.

I can tell you that the tall canisters will hold a bag of flour or sugar. The smaller ones will hold a common bag of brown sugar, rice, and macaroni.

I have flour in one, sugar in another, confectionery sugar and brown sugar in others. Baking soda is ok, but the container I would keep it in it a bit too big for one box. I use another container to keep my chewing gum fresh. I use another for corn meal (love cornbread), and another for brown sugar cubes for coffee. I've even used the largest one to store my berry sangria. It stays fresh in the fridge to chill, and if extra to store for 1-2 days. I keep everything fresh, and I use them all the time. One time we stored Good and Plenty when it didn't fit in the dispenser. Everything I've put in works.

Yes a whole 5 pound bag of flour fits in this container. I put a piece of scotch tape on the outside of the container, and using a sharpie, write what is inside. The tape is easily removed if you want to change what the content of the container is.

The largest is 7"×6.5 wide. Sugar is 6.5×5.5 and down from there incrementialy. Love that I can finally hold a decent amt of flour and sugar.

Patricia, I just happen to have a 4lb. bag of sugar sitting right next to the jar, and it appears that it would easily accommodate 5 lbs. of volume, so the answer is "yes" it should be able to meet your needs. It is a very nice jar. Good luck. Larry

We've been putting 10lb bags of flour in with a little room left over. I'm not sure how much more will fit but 10lbs fits easily.

I pour the 5lb bag of flour into mine. Looking at my container i believe you can.
