Very happy with this purchase......not only will it keep brown sugar fresh, it recovered the lumpy sugar I had when I put it in the container. I love a product that truly lives up to expectations!

This is a great product. The size is perfect for a smaller cabinet and it holds an entire bag of brown sugar. The best part is the hinged lid with the disc attached to help you keep your brown sugar from getting hard. It is a definite keeper.

It seems wonderful to measure out some brown sugar for something and it is actually nice and soft. I would recommend this product to friends. One of my better purchases in recent times.

This container keeps my brown sugar fresher and softer than any other type of container I've tried. I've always used a disc, but the one included in this product does a much better job than ones I had previously used.

The brown sugar keeper is an amazing product. I soaked the terra-cotta disc as instructed, poured in my dried-out brown sugar, placed the disc inside, and after a few hours, the sugar was like new! The terra-cotta disc is a smart and simple solution, and the container is sturdy and airtight. It holds one bag of brown sugar and fits nicely in my cabinets - not too tall or too wide for my shelves.

Thank you for carrying these containers! I have been looking for one for some time, but had not been able to find one like this. The price was perfect and I am planning to buy some of the other sizes for my other dry baking goods.

I purchased this brown sugar keeper, because I coun't keep my brown sugar soft for use. I tried all the old-fashioned trick, without success. I followed the instructions to dampen the terra cotta disk and within 30 minutes of drying it off and placing it in the container with the brown sugar, there was a huge difference. I am very impressed by this product and would recommend it to anyone!

I was pleasantly surprised that my brown sugar is staying moist and therefore quick and easy to scoop out and use. I'm more prone now to use a little brown sugar in recipes or dressings because it's so easy to access now.

Love this product. My brown sugar used to harden over time, getting clumpy and sometimes has been unusable. This container allows the sugar to remain fresh by having the terra-cotta disk lock in the moisture. I never realized it was THIS easy to keep my sugar from clumping.

I bought two keepers for light & dark brown sugars. I look forward to using these containers for years because In the past I have thrown away so many bags of brown sugar that were not used often.

Just purchased so can't give long term opinion. Seems to be working fine. Have tried many other options and hope this one will be the best! I usually buy 5lbs of brown sugar at a time; this holds a bit more than 2. Maybe a larger size will be invented soon!

Best feature is size, it fits about anywhere you want to store it and does not take up excess space. Holds to capacity one "standard" bag of product, so no leftover sugar or void inside the Keeper.

I bought this after being so pleased with the companion confectioner sugar keeper. The right size, easy to open, and transparent so you can see when the supply is getting low. A sensible container.
