are these pitchers air tight?

These pitches have a plastic gasket seal around the lid. As long as you screw them tight, you can place them upside-down or sideways and nothing should drop out.

I don't dsee why not. They have the regular canning seal caps. Seem they would be airtight. I believe these are the same design as any of their "canning" jars except that they are pretty light blue instead of clear glass.

Yes, they are! I am using them now. However, it is quite difficult to close the lids.

I do not believe they are "air tight." If they were I think there would be a bit more resistance felt when closing and locking the box because of pressure on the O-ring. The manufacturer says that they are "water resistant." Were they "water-proof" then they would be airtight.

I don't think any Measured Pourer would be 100% air tight for extended period of time. These are good Pourers, haven't notice any bugs entering bottle.

They are pretty sturdy and the lids fit securely. I have mixed oil and vinegar and taken them to work, and nothing leaks.

The jars are glass and the tops are plastic. I would not say they are as airtight as glass and metal would be. Suggest your get small mason jars as their lids have metal inserts with a rubber seal. Cheaper too.

They aren't air tight, but I've placed them in my fridge before without any issues.

Yes, they are absolutely air tight. There is a rubber (or perhaps silicone?) gasket around each lid, and when closed makes a tight seal. I keep items such as flour, cornmeal and sugar in them safely.

no, they are not air tight. you have to get a special can light housing that is watertight for over a shower. check with home depot or lowes, they have them.

Yes, they are. However, I still sealed everything up with a mylar bag before putting on the lid. They are very high quality buckets/lids that seal up very tight and once sealed, have a one time use pull strip to open them again. The lids will go on again without the pull strip...but I wouldn't think it would be air tight without that strip.

Yes, they lock in place and have had no problems with leaking. It really is a nice set of containers.

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

The lid on mine seals very tightly. They are definitely "air-tight". I have not tested it in water, but I would assume that yes, they are. Hope that helps :)

I have made tea in them- but I normally let the water cool for about 4-5 minutes before I pour into the pitchers. They are very think glass and very sturdy, they may be able to handle boiling water, but I haven't risked it.

I don't believe so. I have never had the kids fall off while pouring. I love these pitchers.
