Are the lids airtight sealed or are they loose when snapped onto the casserole dish?

Lids are not loose they fit tight. Not sure what you mean by airtight , but the lids on mine fit tight ,sometimes its hard to get them off .

I am not sure I would describe it as "airtight" but the larger casserole lid does fit securely and will stay put when you are transporting anything in the carrier. The smaller casserole lid is not as secure. It will work lose, it just does not fit as tightly as the big one, and things will leak, so when I use that one I try to make it very firm around it using towels or pot holders, etc., if I am trying to take the small dish in the carrier to another location. I have secured it with foil or sometimes even a small bungie cord rapped around. The bigger casserole with the lid in place has never needed any other help.

i have used them in the freezer and also sent them to school with my 4yr old, and they have not leaked or cracked. I make sure they are not filled to the brim and the food is moveable so that they don't explode and keeps the seals in place

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

Mine has a super tight seal, it's very nice I've been using it since I bought it, several months ago for powder detergent and I've had No moisture problems!!! The lid is certainly in No way flimsy and the fit Is perfect... I haven't done dishwasher and probably won't as I like to wash this sort of thing by hand!

If fully screwed onto the jar, they are as airtight. They are not, of course, as airtight as something that is canned using rings/lids but for basic storage of dry goods or wet goods in the refrigerator they'll keep food fresh for quite a while. We use them as lids for things such as salsa and jam once opened and placed in the refrigerator. The salsa/jam lasts at least a week without any issue. Dry goods will store much longer, obviously.

They are only airtight in the foil pak they come in. But they are indivisually wrapped tightly in a non-airtight plastic wrapper. You would have to put each in an airtight bag/container to prevent them from becoming soggy.

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.

They are reasonably air tight. I can tip them over and my yogurt doesn't leak, but you need to make sure they are on snug. I think they'd be good for your purpose. I don't keep my spices more than 6 months anyway. only buy small amounts for that reason. Hope this helps. they are good jars.

They are not airtight. Water will not get in. There is no seal, but the lid overlaps the side by 2 inches. The lid also fits very snug. I have used these for about 5 years now. They are very well made (good materials, heavy duty) hold up to lots of abuse and have a lot of space. I put gear I want to keep dry and safe in it and put it in the bed of my truck. I have traveled many thousand miles with these in my truck bed and never had any issues with water leakage no matter what the weather brings.

Yes they have a strip around the top that makes them airtight. Keeps food fresh. I, have really enjoyed mine!

Yes the lids seem airtight to me. They have screw on grooves that secure on pretty well. Interesting idea to use them for dry snacks. Will have to try.

I pack leftovers usually, when I cook in these pans. But, the few times that I have refrigerated the food as is, it stays fresh enough. The cover is quite heavy, hence you can expect it to be air tight.

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.

Definitely not airtight. Don't remember where they were made or if plastic is BPA free. Sorry I couldn't help you out more.

Yes they are. I make casseroles and use these all the time for freezing them.

They have a pretty good rubber (maybe soft plastic) seal. I don'think it's air tight. They have been dependable in storing flour and cookies.

I can answer the second question: No, it is not airtight. The lid doesn't tightly seal to the rim of the pan. I've found this to be the case with all 4 of my lidded Nordic Ware pans. I just put some plastic wrap on the pan before popping the lid on.Additionally, the pie pan's lid has little vents in it.Hope that helps. I still love these pans for now nicely they bake and clean up.
