Will the large hold a 4-5 1b bag of flour?

No. Not quite. But be careful when ordering from this company. When I received my canisters I did not open them right away because I was in the process of remodeling my kitchen. Although they were packed well, they sat inside each other. The middle one was cracked and broke as I removed it from the box. The company would not exchange it.

Sorry - I can't say for sure. I just got these and emptied what little was left of 5-pound bag into large canister. I don't use that much flour, so no plans to buy new bag soon. Wish I could be of more help. You might ask manufacturer.

Yes, the 23 cup container will easily fit a five pound bag of flour[measured with a unopened five pound bag of sugar and there was plenty of room around and on top in container].

According to my information, 5 pounds of all-purpose flour is just over 18 cups so I guess this container comes up a bit short. I have to say, though, it's one of the best containers I have used. It seals well. It will keep your flour dry and free from "varmints". I use the container for a 1 pound box of soda crackers. It is perfect for 4 of those "sleeves" that come in the box. Suggestion: make some biscuits and then store the remaining flour in one of these Lock & Lock's. It's a great container.

I actually returned these as they were a lot smaller than I expected. The largest canister will only hold about a half a bag of flour....

I would say no...but not positive, the large is just big enough for a tube in the box, tire levers, phone, couple of C02 cartridges and an allen pack.

I use mine for spelt flour. The 5-gal. bucket holds a little less than the contents of a 25 lb. bag.

Absolutely...we use all different size of behrens for our bulk grains/flours depending on the size of bags we have. We use a lot of 10 gallon buckets with lids and they hold 35 pounds.The 31 gallon ones are perfect for sitting an entire 50 bag in and still have able room.

I'm not sure of the exact measurements, the big one will not hold a full 5 lb. bag of flour, the middle one will not hold a 4lb. bag of sugar and the little one I keep tea bags in. The lids are very hard to get on and off too.

The largest one can hold either 5 lb of flour or 5 lb of sugar, but the middle-sized one cannot. The middle-sized one holds about 4 lb of sugar, so if you're baking and use some of a new package the remainder would fit. This issue is why I bought two sets. I use the two largest for the 5 lb flour and sugar. I use the other ones for brown sugar, powdered sugar, tea bags, choc chips etc. I didn't have any problem finding a use for the 6 cannisters.

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.

The largest will hold a 5 lb. bag of sugar and the other one would hold 2 lbs of flour. These canisters are great. So glad I purchased them. You won't be disappointed!

Yes, the biggest one - we use ours for flour - can fit a one cup measuring cup to scoop out.

It is unfortunate that the answers you've gotten so far are all over the map but at least you got the simple answer to your question, which is "yes." What I also learned is that a cup of flour weighs about 5 oz but may vary between 4 and 6 oz. If we use 5 oz multiplied by the 16 cups of volume in a gallon, that's 80 ounces of flour that will fit in a gallon, which is the same as five pounds (80 oz/16 oz per lb). So a standard 5 lb. package of flour will fit a one gallon container pretty closely. A 1.5 gallon container like this one might fit about 7-8 lbs of flour. Hope that helps.

We have three of these and use them for our dog food and they all hold 25lbs or more of dog food. So they should be able to hold the rice and the flour

I use it for flour. I buy the 25 pound bags at Costco and this container will only hold 23 pounds. Hope this helps.

It will come close to holding a 5lb. bag of flour...these are larger than they look in the pictures. Hope this helps, Darcie's Mom.
