Are these containers air tight?

Not sure if they are truly "air tight," but the caps screw on very tightly and securely. If air gets through, it doesn't appear to be enough to dry out the spices or cause them to become stale.

I would say yes it is airtight. They are glass jars with a plastic lid that screws on. The display is acrylic.

They seem to be, but I have not submerged one in water to find out for sure. Everything seems to stay fresh and dry, even when we run the swamp cooler for months on end.

Louis, all I can say about the Prodyne A-845 Acrylic 20 bottle spice rack is that they screw on tightly, so I'm assuming they're air tight. AND, the rack itself is acrylic, not the bottles, which are glass, with a plastic screw-on top.

Water tight, very much so. Air tight? Well, sort of. I wouldn't store a gas in them, if that is what you're asking. You don't smell anything if you've got something gross in there (that's happened a few times). But they are probably only about as air tight as a plastic bottle. So, some air is going to escape, it will just be slow. So I guess it depends on what you're planning to use them for.

Yes, they are. However, I still sealed everything up with a mylar bag before putting on the lid. They are very high quality buckets/lids that seal up very tight and once sealed, have a one time use pull strip to open them again. The lids will go on again without the pull strip...but I wouldn't think it would be air tight without that strip.

Yes, these containers do leak, they are not air tight. Great for non-liquid items however.

We have lots of spices in them over the stove where there's a lot of boiling and steaming going on, no problems. But I would doubt they are "air tight." We have not experienced any salt clumping or other negative effects, and you can smell the spices if you sniff the container. I'd guess it's pretty close to airtight but I wouldn't submerge it with your micro ipod in it!

They seem to be pretty air and water tight ... Like with any container, there may be a little leakage, but my lid goes on tight and doesn't move when on. I had to cut holes in my lid for my bread gasses to escape.

Yes, the seal is not tight on these containers. Unfortunately, they leak as well.

They are not airtight. Water will not get in. There is no seal, but the lid overlaps the side by 2 inches. The lid also fits very snug. I have used these for about 5 years now. They are very well made (good materials, heavy duty) hold up to lots of abuse and have a lot of space. I put gear I want to keep dry and safe in it and put it in the bed of my truck. I have traveled many thousand miles with these in my truck bed and never had any issues with water leakage no matter what the weather brings.

Yes. I have found these containers to be leak proof. I was pleasantly surprised to see how much food they can hold. So far, they have held up nicely, and I use them frequently.

i own this, with a properly placed seal it should be airtight. the seals remove for cleaning. if you do not install them correctly then it will not be air tight. they are pretty easy to install. i am happy for the price i paid. tupperware made nice canisters but they will cost you twice as much and they are not clear.

I use them for Limoncello, and they seem to seal pretty tight. I would say, yes they are air tight as they are placed on their sides with the liquid against the top and show no signs of leaks.

No, not air tight at all unless you maybe wrap some plastic wrap around the top before putting lid on. I actually never use the lid.

Definitely not airtight. Don't remember where they were made or if plastic is BPA free. Sorry I couldn't help you out more.

I don't actually know for sure,but I do believe they are air tight and leakproof because the seal is very tight around the dish. Just make sure when you wash the seal,to let it air dry completely,or stretch the seal outward towards you to wipe clean&dry. I had an experience where I didn't wipe dry the seal and had to throw it out because it turned black. But I do think they are good and air tight and leak proof. Good luck,and I hope this has helped you.

No they are not. If you use your spice constantly like I do you don't have to worry about them being air tight. My spices get used before they go stale.

I have never put food in them so I can't answer that. Airtight, perhaps, but not watertight, I am sure. it is plastic to plastic base to lid.
