Has anyone used this to store instant oatmeal packets? If so, how many did it hold?

Hi Charlotte - this item is small and probably won't hold more than 6 packets. They make a larger one but I don't know if Amazon carries it. Hop this helps.

I have a minimum of 6 sheets/divider with 12 dividers and it could hold double that. I have 2 of these and keep groupings of paper in 12x12 plastic bags within the dividers. I like the fact that the dividers are closed on the bottom to keep scraps contained within the divider.

I haven't bought or used this particular container. However, I have cooked oatmeal in the microwave many many times. I have had it overflow in different containers, but stay in the bowl in the same container another time. I haven't tried lowering the power although that might help. The issues that seem to cause overflow are how full the container is, how long it is cooked without being stirred or the door opened to stop the rise of the oatmeal. I have used both old fashioned and quick cooking oats. Both have overflowed. The container needs to be big enough to hold the oatmeal and have room for the oats to rise.

Nooooo! I only put maybe 8 total per slot; 4 per side. I would just use more than one slot, or switch to another kind of holder.

They vary from large enough to hold the contents of a box or crackers or cereal, to small for sugar packets or tea bags. They, however, work fabulously. I use them on my boat and they keep everything crisp and from getting stale. I am ordering more in the largest size for home.

I use mine to keep a bread-drawer-turned-kids-cup-drawer in some semblance of order. Considering the abuse they take with 3 small kids rifling through looking for their favorite character cups, I think they do a great job!

I bought several bags of the smaller packets for the same purpose. There are really so many variables to this question that I just bought dozens of these packets and put multiples of them in each storage container. I put them in clothes, books and craft boxes- frankly- the more stuff, the more bags of dessicant

It holds quite a bit, it's really designed for things like powdered sugar, cinnamon, and such. I'm using it to replace the Mrs. Dash container since I remodeled my kitchen, it easily holds the contents of two regular size spice containers.

It says it holds 20 sheets, but I only put in 3 at one time. I don't trust it not to jam. It is very quick and does the job.

This is for a home use. 2000 servings would be like a restaurant / commercial "equipment". This only holds 4 cups, which is as big as you'll find for home kitchen purposes. It's good for dunut / muffin pans and a family breakfast. "Chunks" would probably cause clogging because of the small amount it holds.

I use them for prep bowls, not storage. The green ones hold at least a cup of dry goods each. I use the purple for 1/2 cup ingredients

Good Morning, Thank you for contacting Hold N Storage!! I believe that this should be able to hold a full bag of flour as it's a 15.9 Cup container. Shall you have any further questions feel free to contact us!! Have A Wonderful Weekend!!

YES! It will store 2 standard-sized loaves of bread easily. I hope this helps.

I use one for saltine crackers. The entire box of those fit inside with room to spare. I have another that I keep angel hair pasta in. They are great!

I have this recipe box. It is very nice! I don't think it could hold 365 cards though. I would guess more like 200-250.

You can store anything in them, they have a good seal. I use them for leftovers and store spices in a smaller carosel, but it may work for large quantities. These hold approx. 1.5 cups+ and they stack well. You can also see what you have on the shelf or fridge. Sheera

Wow! Can't imagine what you are doing?? Maybe wattage too high? I've cooked both regular oatmeal and instant with no problems at all! Try boiling the water first in the bowl, then add the oatmeal. Either way it works for me, no problems!
