Hello, thanks for posting your questions.According to the product information in the Product Description section of the Product Page, the sizes are as follows: 4.25", 6" & 8" in height. The price is $28.95 for the set of three containers. I've unfortunately, been unable to find what quantities they can hold.I hope this helps!

The containers I bought will hold a 5lb bag of flour if it is absolutely empty. They are great!

It is supposed to hold 40 lbs of kibble. I would imagine it could hold 50 lbs of flour or sugar because the kibble takes up more space that flour and sugar would.

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.

81 oz. would fit sugar but not flour. I moved onto the Progressive flour keeper which states it is 3.8 quarts.

Yes-a five pound bag of flour will fit into this. A six quart container generally fits 5 lbs of flour and 6 quarts= 1 1/2 gallons. Here is a link to guide you:http://www.simplyprepared.com/storage%20containers.htm

The largest (flour) has no problem holding 5 pounds. It may hold more but as a smaller household I don't purchase larger sizes. The second largest (sugar) holds 4/5 pounds easily. Again, it could hold more but I limit the sizes I buy. Great set of canisters. I have been very pleased with mine.

For a cylinder, the only dimensions needed are the height and diameter. As for the "5," the only connection that I can think of (and it's a stretch) is that it will hold 5 pounds of flour. At any rate (we have 3 of them), the canisters look great, work great, and seal perfectly.

Large canister is 8" tall without lid. I buy 2lb bags of flour. This should hold 4lbs. with no problem.Middle canister is about 71/2 " tall w/o lid. I don't use 5 lbs. of sugar so I put in the small bag.The small canister is about 6" tall w/o lid. I use for bag tea. The lids are approx. 2 1/2 - 3" tall.These canisters are the perfect size for my counter and really brighten up my kitchen.......I hope this helps.

According to the King Arthur Flour site, it would take 6 quarts for a 5lb bag of flour. This one has 7.5 quarts, so it should fit.

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.

Since the container seals when you close it, it would work for sugar as well as flour.

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.

It holds a whole bag of flour (5lb) with still about an inch of room to the top.

The largest is 7"6.5 wide. Sugar is 6.55.5 and down from there incrementialy. Love that I can finally hold a decent amt of flour and sugar.

If you can give me the dimensions of a 10 lb bag of flour I'll measure and let you know. I love this container, it's very large. I keep dog food in it.

Having just purchased these myself a standard bag of flour fits into the size labeled as 3.25 ( the other sizes are in ounces which doesn't really help any one!) 3.25 L is 13.7 cups and holds the full bag although I couldn't quite fit in the little measuring cup that comes with, when I had just put in a whole new bag. The 5lb bag of sugar has less volume and can fit into a smaller container ( 2.4L 10.2 cups). Hope that helps. I have been very pleased with my purchase.
