Can this store 10lb of rice (uncooked)?

It says it can hold 7 quarts total. I put 2 - 5 lb bags of flour in it. Ten lb of rice is equal to or around 6 quarts.

Yes, this 29 cup capacity will hold 10 lb. of uncooked rice. I placed into our container 2 - 2# bags of rice; 1# bags, each, of barley, lentils, split peas, pinto beans, navy beans. In addition, 10 oz. of navy beans in an opened bag. Combined, these equal 9 lbs., 10 oz., and there was still space remaining for easily one, maybe two more 1 lb. bags.

I don't think this one is big enough for that. You may need to go to the next larger size.

When I compare the dimensions against the Kome Bitsu 5068 Rice Container which holds 11 lbs and is 14x9x8", I would say that this Snapware container might hold 5 lbs but no more.

I have this shelf in my kitchen with cooking, gardening, and nutritional books which weight more than 10 lbs. per shelf. I believe it will be OK.

I don't use it for dog food but it is a large container. It holds 50 lbs of rice and beans, but I did not weight that either. If you have very dense dog food I would guess yes. I think others who actually use it for dog food may have more specific answers. Good luck.

I guess it can hold at about 5 cups of rice. You don't wan to put too many cups otherwise you do not have enough space to wash the rice.

it should be fine I store it full of rice but you have to be careful with the bag and how you carry it if it's full.

I happened to be at the grocery store when this question came in and the biggest bag they had of either was 10 lbs. You might be able to fit 20lbs of rice in the next size down but it would be tight.

Yes, with the basket about 1.5 inch above the bottom of the rice pan, I think it' deep enough for a good amount of veggies. We like this rice cooker a lot.

Yes and no. Yes - An uncooked rice grain has a smaller than 1/16" diameter (the app. diameter of the holes in this colander) and can easily be slipped through the holes if held perpendicular to the holes. No - Grains of rice lie horizontally when in the colander so it is my experience than no uncooked rice grains ever fall through the holes. No - Cooked grains of short grain rice rice swell to a grater than 1/16" diameter and will not fit through the holes. .

We've been putting 10lb bags of flour in with a little room left over. I'm not sure how much more will fit but 10lbs fits easily.

I am fairly certain they would hold 10 lbs of potatoes easily. I use mine for bird seed and an 8 lb bag of niger seed fills half of one bin...so even with the bulkier potatoes I would imagine there would be plenty of room.

Absolutely. I fit a 50lbs bag of King Arthur Sir Galahad (the wholesale name of the the All Purpose) flour in it without much issue. So I'd feel confidant in saying it will hold 20lbs of rice. You might want to actually purchase a 30lbs container instead if they make one of those since it would take up less space...I know I'm late to the party but in case someone else had a similar question. It will also hold more if you turn the container 1/4 turn to the left (so the spout comes out the top and not the side)

I am able to fit an 8 lb bag of dog food into this jar. I love it! I would estimate a good portion of a 10 lb bag of flour would fit nicely in it.

I would say no, but you might get away with a rice dish. It's a clay pot so dry high heat probably isn't good for it, would just stick with soups or a braise.

I would not think so unless you leave it in a tub of water or something. It is quite heavy and has a no slip backing on it. I use it over my stove top as extra counter space when I am not cooking.

I tried shaking and rinsing uncooked rice in it. A little of the rice fell through. When the rice is cooked and then rinsed, I don't think it will fall through.

It would depend on your refrigerator and how much stuff you keep in it. I think it could, but I don't store mine there.
