These neat little boxes to hold my salt, pepper, milk, and sugar are wonderful. I am a messy cook and the built in leveler helps a lot. Extra bonus the other end opens and it turns into a shaker. WOW!

I wanted something to store my baking soda and cornstarch in a limited space and these were just perfect. Size is large enough without taking up my limited space.

I bought THREE mini keepers, they are great to store sugar, salt and sea-salt. They do not clutter my counter top yet are there for every day cooking. They are easy to fill and can be used either as a shaker or used for taking measured spoon amounts.

Wonderful small containers, very useful for all those little kitchen spices and herbs that need to be kept fresh. Mine hold peppercorns, sea salt, and lovely Hungarian paprika. Love it that you can see what's inside. I bought two sets!!

When my new cupboards were installed I purchased a pull out spice drawer. After I put my spice jars in it I found that when opening the drawer the jars tended to slide around and tip over. These spice containers are the perfect size and do not slide around or tip over. There is enough space behind them for a small spice jar which they hold in place perfectly. I bought 2 sets (6 containers) and plan to buy more. I love them.

The right size for salt.
PostedFebruary 21, 2013
I wanted a container to hold salt that would allow easy measuring for baking. These containers are not as solid as I'd like, but they will suffice. Sure beats trying to pour salt out of a spout into a measuring spoon.

While I love the bigger versions of the containers for storing flour, sugar and such...the smaller containers "leaked." Cinnamon and baking soda could be shaken out of the containers through the hinge of the flip-top lid while it was closed. The shelf life of anything stored in these containers would be compromised because they are not airtight. Sadly, these will be returned.

I bought the Mini Keepers to store small amounts of flour, sugar, and spices I use often in cooking, like garlic salt. They fit compactly on the shelf in the cupboard above my food prep area, and the shakers provide one handed/quick access to coat chicken, vegetables or whatever I need to season before I sauté the food. I've taken away a star because it seems the lid might fit a little tighter. If the lid snapped, I'd feel like the seal is more air tight. That said, contents stored in the Keepers seems fresh, and they are a storage solution that I use everyday.

I like the size, look and features of these storage pieces. I bought 3 sets . .. But couple of my lids are leaking . . .. . baking powder mess in my cabinet! And I don't know how fresh things can stay if they are not airtight?

A Mini Keeper can hold an entire box of baking soda. One side of the cover opens enough for a measuring spoon to fit and come out cleanly scraped against the edge for an accurate measurement. The other side has sprinkle holes, so I will use one of the Keepers for pre-mixed cinnamon/sugar for toast.
