How do the lids go on and off? Do they twist or just snap on?

They have a snug seal but not a groove for twisting. So, you do twist/shimmy the top off, but it's smooth on the top and bottom. I hope that makes sense!

You take the lid off to fill the container, then you can just twist the cap to shake or pour out the spice.

They don't click on hard they sit on which is easy for the baby or toddler to take them off. Like if I held one upside down the top would stay on. But easy enough to glide off. Hope that helps. ((some of mine stay on better than others))

its been a while since i had this but i believe it should just twist/pull/pop right off. i dont remember the lid being an issue for me.

Its a little tricky. You have to close the lid and flip it over. And there is a little tab you have to slide over. It helps if you have a pen or screw driver to put in the tab, to help slide it over.

The lid screws on, and you have a flip open drinking slot. We have had these cups, or a replacement set for many years and think they are superb.

The lids snap on. They have a nice rubber seal that holds in everything.....I've tipped it over at work and no spills!!!

The lids are not snap ons like a Rubbermaid container. Along the inside edge of the lid there is a recessed band of a foam type material that makes an air tight fit when the top is latched down onto the container portion.

They don't actually snap closed, but I know what you are talking about. I ordered 2 sets (4 containers, and one of the containers is defective. I tried all the lids plus some that I already had, and the one bottom would not seal with any of the tops. All 4 of the tops worked my bottoms including my older ones. I have been so busy that I haven't contacted the vendor to see if I can get a replacement. Guess I need to do that. I really love them, and already had 4 when I ordered these 4. I like that they will stack about 3 high in a small space in my fridge, and I have kept Romaine Lettuce leaves fresh for 4 weeks in one.

yes, the lid screws off and on. it forms a very tight seal vacuum-like seal.

The lids stay on. There is a tab at one of the corners (not shown in the picture) that you sue to take off the lids. Otherwise, it would be a little hard to get them off. However, it is easy if you use the tab. So they stay on very well but are also relatively easy to take off.

The lids are fairly easy, but can be a half at times. They fit pretty tight, and are easiest to take off when done evenly rather than trying to lift one side at a time. One downfall I have experienced is if you use your fingers to lift the edges and press your thumbs into the center as you would a tupper ware, the clear panel pops out into the canister! It pops back in easily, but what a floury mess, potentially. Hope this helped.

Yes if you push straight up on them while they are unclipped the will pop straight up and off the top of the lid. The good part is they just slide right back into place and you just push down and they snap back in. When you unsnap them you just need light forward pressure and they pop past the lip. If you lift up while you are pulling them forward while unspinning them they do pop off. I have five of these units for my watch parts inventory. About once a week a latch will pop off on me and I just snap it back on. It could have been designed a little better but I still love these cases for keeping my small watch parts in order and if need more space in the future I would buy a sixth rack.

The lid comes completely off. It snaps on, but sometimes it's hard to get it to let loose.

These caps snap on to the can, when the can is empty we squeeze the can to pop them off. As long as the cap is on tight, we have had no problems. In fact I plan on buying more for gifts. We really like these.

I used the small blade of my pocket knife to push the lid upwards on one side, then push upwards on the other side. After several triesl I had worked the lid up about 1/8" inch, then I could twist it off. When you close it don't push it down all the way, then you can twist it off easily.

They need to be tight because they snap on and off. There is a tab on the cover to make removing less difficult.
