Is it airtight? Some of these bread boxes have holes in them, defeating the purpose of trying to protect it from moisture and such.

We bought two of these for bread out of our zojirushi bread machine. The machine makes 2 pound loafs. The lid did not seal well and the size measurements are misleading. It ended up being to small for the bread we were making, and it is now a dry pasta holder. Would not recommend for homemade bread unless you go to great lengths to resize your bread to fit. Rubbermaid's use of the word "Giant" is greatly exaggerated.

Yes, the bread box is air tight. It keeps the bread fresh. I'm very please with it.

Yes it is. I once dropped mine lid first into a sink of water with bread in and the seal held. I make my own bread and a loaf would stay plenty fresh until we were done with it.

It is not an airtight enclosure, so maybe at least placing fresh homemade bread in a paper bag would be best.

No. As the container is vertical and the bread is in vertical shape. For me it is alright, for the bread is great !

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 haven't had any moisture build up. I live in the tropics where it is warm...bread will get moldy after several days...but no actual moisture in the bag.

Like a rubber seal? No. It just has a rim that's all. So, it's not airtight or anything. Not sure if that answered the question

There are two small openings on each side at the rear of the bin. They are not an intentional ventilation feature, however, I'm just agreeing that it is not an airtight bread bin. I'd also consider the finish stainless steel...matches my appliances perfectly.

There is a soft rubber seal around the lid which if tightened ought to prevent moisture getting in/out. I have not tested this however, it is just m impression from inspecting the container.

It is not airtight. We have it hanging outside which is working out great. If it was inside, I believe you would smell the poop. We put a piece of cardboard down the middle as this allowed us to store bags on one side and the poop on the other. Hope that helps.

I am assuming you are implying a hole or dent in the bottom of the bread from the mixing paddle. That is the only dent in the bread. If you are asking about air holes in the bread, i have not experienced any with the recipes I have tried.

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.

No, it is not airtight. If u pack anything that contains liquid, it will leak.

It is not air tight at all. As I mentioned in my review, I stated that there are large gaps at the bottom of the food container that allows food and crumbs to fall through the bottom into the electronic/mechanical area of the feeder.

The holes are intentionally there. If the batter is too thin it leaks in the oven. If the batter is thick it bakes beautifully. Use a strip of grease paper to cover holes if you have to.

It is not totally air tight. I don't fill it up completely, so I'm adding beans every few days. Having said that, I've never had an issue with freshness.

No holes per say, but it does have small clearances between the lid and box so that the lid can open and close easily. It is not airtight, and it shouldn't be from what I understand. That said we have no problem with bugs, but our house is quite bug-free. Good luck.
