Are these jars air tight?

Well, the lids are secure, but at the same time, they lift off easily. I suppose that a screw-on lid would be MORE airtight, but I have not had a problem maintaining freshness in these jars.

They should fit just fine. This type of jar is made to seal air tight from the lid, so the rubber gasket has to stretch over the inside of the top, like an old lady getting into a girdle. LOL. I have a set of kitchen apothecaries, all with different sized lids, and all the gaskets fit airtight.

Yes, they are air tight. They snap on. I leave the lid cracked open when bread dough is rising. The lid DOESN'T spin.

Absolutely. There is nothing wrong with these jars. We use them in our pantry for spices and have never had an issue.

Have not tried this but I would think so. They are airtight and light weight.

No. The lids aren't true seals for the jars. These are more of a table decorative item

While the lid has a snug fit I would not consider it air tight. Depending on what you are storing my answer would be different... cookie dough yes... air sensitive fruits no....

THEY ARE NOT AIRTIGHT!!!! Good for crafts or buttons I guess? The plastic seal between the metal cap and the jar is not designed to be airtight seal.

They're not airtight. They're tight enough to stay on when not tossed around or shifted. But, they're definitely not like a Tupperware lid that seals shut.

Yes, they are airtight. I use them though for flavored water, not juicing. They do seal very well.

They are completely air tight. My daughter has had paint in the cups since December 23rd and the paint hasn't dried up yet

I don't know for sure if they are air tight, but I know the lid fits very tightly and I really have to pull hard to get it open. The lid is definitely not flimsy, in fact it is stronger than the ones on my smaller versions. I have never put mine in the dishwasher, I always just wash mine in good hot soapy water. I would buy this size again. Hope this is helpful.

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.

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

I've been using them for a good while which I think is long term and so far I haven't had any problems with them. But no they aren't air tight. To make them so I would cover them with plastic wrap before putting on the cover or just find an alternative container.
