Do they seal tight? Air tight?

Yes. These canisters seal very well. Excellent product and well worth the money.

There isn't rubber so its not air tight but they close just fine, if you submerged them under water I believe the water would get in after a good amount of time though.

They have a good seal that seems airtight and keeps the products fresh. Use Dailey and are wearing well.

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.

Not like an airtight or waterproof seal. But I am very happy with them for just storage.

I don't know if I would consider it "air tight" or "air proof" as the seal is a foam strip (not rubber or some denser material), but the latch does keep the lid snapped closed. I roll mine around a lot though and tend to grap it from the front, which then unsnaps the seal. Argh. I have to remember to grab with both hands on either side of the snap, and then it works fine. I like them. (I took a photo for you as I thought there was a way to upload photos ... but I can't see how to do that on this answer.)

Hi Donna, the canisters just have a seal along the edge. They are not air tight. The lids fit loosely on each one. I keep pre made coffee filters in them for the week and they always stay fresh and perfect. I love them so much and they look beautiful. I hope this helps a bit.Debbie

Yes, they have a snug seal. We have a dozen of these now and have never had that problem. Ours are stocked with rice, lentils ect.

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 they do. the bags do not stay air tight for long period of time. air eventually gets back in.

No they do not provide a water tight seal. They leak and they began to rust on me.

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.

It has holes on top and a charcoal filter, so no, its definitely not "air tight". But it seals all around the metal to metal contact very well :)

I have only had them for a short while, but so far so good. A friend of mine has had them for much longer, and I have never heard her mention problems with leaks. She seems very happy with them. The seal seems pretty tight.

Yes Lori, they are sealed airtight. Sometimes they can be difficult to open, but have always succeeded. They stay fresh for a while, but they never last too long around my house. They are delicious!

Mine don't either. I just screw them on tight and they don't leak--seal zone or not.

The canisters do have a rubber seal, thus providing a barrier to the air. However, depending on what you mean by air tight...?????I believe that the rubber seal should extend the life of it's contents and prevent contamination from exterior sources.

I'm not sure, as I've never tried it. They do seal well without much effort on your part though.

Yes and they seal really well. My kids have rolled them around the floor and turned them upside down without spills.
