how much dry dog food will it hold?

We can fit a 5 pound bag of dog food in each jar. It is tight and it's possible that some brands might not fit as well as others, but so far we haven't had any problems and we've had them for years.

Jar is a good size and I would say probably a regular size bag of dog food. No problem

I bought the 50 pound size, and a 35 pound of dog food fills it about half-full.

Yes, I think it could handle 6 - 40 lb bags of dog food. For the size of this thing, it could probably fit 8 to 10 bags of 40 lb dog food. If it is on a level surface, it could probably handle 8 bags. I currently have about 200 lbs of stuff in it on an uneven surface. I have found insects/ ants in the container but it is outside. I use it for garden items/ tiller and everything is dry. I love it.

If you're storing dry dog food in this container, I would not recommend you store ANY food at 115 F in ANY container. It's not the container I'm worried about, but the food may turn rancid at that temp. Depends on what you are storing. You should ask the manufacturer if their product would hold up at that temp.

Each compartment holds about 3/4 to 1 cup of dry food. Enough for two cats? That would depend on the size of the cats and the frequency of the feedings.

I have put 4 cups of dry food in but have never measured the water. It is larger than the food bowl. It lasts over a day with my 125 dog.

It says on the information that it holds 25 pounds in the larger bottom one and 10 pounds in the top smaller one. I am not sure about dog food, but I myself have 2 different types of dry food for my cats and that is why I have this to keep it separated. I was able to get 12 pounds in the top and 12 in the bottom a lot of room to spare in both. Despite the fact the it states the top is only supposed to hold 10. I am sure it depends on the food, and I am not familiar with dog food. I just know that I have plenty of room for what kinds of food I use for my cats and again, room to spare. Hope this helps.

Yes, I feed my 2 dogs a 1/2 3.5 oz over dry food 2 xs a day. I have a 15 lb and 9 lb. the dry stays down if they get hungry but they never finish it. I go through one pack a day.

Mine held a 55 lb bag of barley grain with room to spare but it would depend on the size and density of the dog food on whether 50 lbs of that would fit.

The answer depends on how much your feeding your pet. You can set up to three feedings and give 1/2 cup to 2 cups each feeding. I fill the feeder with a 9.3lbs bag of dog food. I set the feeder to give 1/2 cup three times a day. It lasts about 16days.

Depends on how the dog food is sized; something in big chunks will weigh less than something that is tiny. Also, the content of dog foods will slightly alter the weight. I buy 30# bags of a senior dog mix and store it in two of the Bergan Stack-N-Stor 40's. I don't know what the 40 stands for -- my guess at the time I bought them was that it stood for and internal capacity of 40 cubic inches. I hope this has been a helpful answer and doesn't sound too pedantic.

It doesn't matter how much it holds.This is a God-awful product, don't buy it.Catmate/Petmate feeders are pretty good though, look into those.

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 just checked and it holds 5 cups of my medium breed kibble. Hope that helps!

For sure, it does not hold 40# (Science Diet Lite Dog Food). I usually buy the 33# bags and it cannot hold all of it---but it will hold about 3/4 of the bag. Hope this helps you Brittany.

I can't say for sure about the weight of dog food, I filled mine with pool equipment and it stays dry. It does a good job

I think you could get a 35 pound bag of dog food in it. You might consider putting the actual bag in it though, as I think just dumping it in there would cause a moisture problem. Great idea though!
