Rubbermaid Modular Pantry Organization Food Storage Containers, Cereal Keeper with Flip Top Lid, 18 Cup, Red

The measurement is listed on the cereal keeper and the last listed is 16 cups. There is enough space above that to the lid, which apparently makes 18 cups. I think these hold a tad less than the regular Rubbermaid containers that are not molded for the hand and does not have the flip up area in the lid.....on those, the measurement list goes to 18 cup with a tad more room at the top to the lid. Bottom line, these appear to hold a little less than the regular ones. Both are the same height, by the way. None of these Rubbermaid kitchen storage containers are ever at the Huntingdon, TN Walmart. I don't think they stock them. I either go to the Milan, TN Walmart in which half the time they don't have them or I order them online. What I do appreciate about this particular storage container is the molded area for the hand....makes them much easier to pick up. I didn't purchase these for cereal. I keep a lot of various dry ingredients and I find these will work well for some grains, pasta, etc that I want to pour out or dip out through the flip top with spoon/scoop. Bob ask Val, 'why do you keep purchasing Rubbermaid products?' Of which Val replied 'Because I love Rubbermaid products, they're fun, durable, functional, and last forever. So don't ask, Bob'. :)

I bought two of these to assist me in reorganizing my pantry. I live in Florida so insects are a constant possibility and when those tiny ants appeared, it was ON! Anything in a bag or box got placed into glass or plastic with airtight seals! These were for 5lb bags of rice and they're perfect! It looks so much better than all those boxes and I no longer have to fear seeing insects.
