My spice cabinet was a holy mess.

First, I can't stand spices and such sitting out. I know a lot of people have racks on the counter, or lazy susans sitting out, or the top of the stove piled with spices. I just can't stand it.

In my recent kitchen remodel, my spice cabinet got even smaller than it already was. I don't use a ton of spices and such, but I couldn't stand the even tighter space. Even after cleaning out and organizing, it was a pain to get into, with all the different bottles, boxes etc.

Saw these on free shipping day, and bought two sets, wish I had gotten more.

Lock down nice and tight, has silicone gasket in the little flip top, and unlike other things with the seal there, these actually stay down and don't pop back up.

Drawbacks, none have a shaker type top, which would be nice, and you have to figure out a way to label what is in them. I wrote on them with sharpie marker.

Going to see if this makes things easier. The top shelf in my pic is my colored sprinkles for cookies. I really wish these were available in a set with the sprinkle/shaker type insert in the opening, so I could switch those over too. I may just get another set and do it anyway, and figure out how to sprinkle later!

Are these new? First time I had seen them. What color did you get? And what do you think about storing things like vanilla extract and other liquids in them?

As a self proclaimed organizational freak, I LOVE it and have many sets also. I was contemplating a spice container set, but at the time, there were no reviews. Your photos inspired me to consider purchasing the 10 pc. set in dusty rose.

~~~All we need is LOVE💖

@Mominohio

Yes, they're new and they flew out the door when presented!

In the presentation, they said that they wouldn't be back before the end of the year, but they apparently had more in the warehouse.

I bought 2 sets of red first, then bought the blue today, when they came back.

I plan to use the red for savory spices and the blue for baking spices.

I love the fact that you can write on the container with a sharpie and erase it when changing spices in that container!

Great minds think alike!

I got two colors too, to keep the sweet/baking in one color and the savory spices in another! LOL

I just ordered another set, but it KILLED ME to pay that shipping. I usually order four to eight sets of lock and lock on free shipping days, and wait for them, as I'm redoing the whole kitchen, but I'm afraid to wait on these.

I would really like several more sets, but I'll hold out and see if they have any if they have another free ship day. At least one more set will let me complete my spice cabinet for now.

@Mominohio

I was so excited when I saw your pics then realized these were "spice" containers☹️ because I want a pantry set in tritan vs plastic. My LNL are really showing their age!

I am thinking getting the OXO containers -- expensive but the ones I've had 10+ years are not discolored & seal tight.

I did order the spice containers. I bought a label maker ($20) at WM -- I'm a label nut😉. They "peel" off easily vs. writing on containers. II label everything and they have "clear" or white background label strips. Love this thing🙂🙂🙂

@homedecor1 : I have an older model of the brother label machine. I label very thing and has been my best purchase. I like yours. Next trip to WM will treat my self. The label cartages - check with Amazon Basics to see if they have it to fit this machine. They are really good and not as expensive as the original brand. I purchased a set of the L&L to use in my pantry.

Just received email from QVC that the product is no longer in stock and will be notified when available. Southern Bee

Just a head's up, but this morning my most recent order of these went to backorder. Kind of odd because they are still showing available in the color I ordered, on the product page. I ordered another set this morning to see if they will ship while the backorder set just sits in nowhere land with QVC's awful website.

I was very tempted, but the truth is that I have a large, flat drawer for my spices. It's been working well for me for the last five years. As they say, it's probably best not to fix it if it ain't broke, so I think I'll save the money and take a pass on this set. Maybe in my next kitchen they will make more sense.

@Mominohio Same thing happened when I ordered a few days ago. I tried all colors. Maybe I will get them.

@homedecor1 : ^^? above post. Purchased shelf kit, spice bottles and labels because had no idea that lock and lock would have spice containers available. Southern Bee

All my orders now went to backorder. I highly doubt I'll get them. Why do they leave things up as available when they aren't . Wait list I get. But Backorder just doesn't make sense, when they say they won't get them.
