I purchased these containers specifically for making bread with the "5-minute Artisan bread" recipe. It costs less to buy these two containers, with lids included, than it does to buy one container and the lid that's sold separately (I still can't figure out that marketing scheme).
Readers of the 5-minute Artisan bread book will wonder about whether or not the lids are air-tight. I don't know if they are air-tight or not, but I've made several batches of dough and stowed them in the refrigerator with the lid on tight with no problems. I initially considered punching a small hole in the lid, but it's not necessary (at least it was not with the set I received). If concerned one can easily leave the lid partially unfastened or drill/punch a hole in the lid.
Those who want to buy a container for making 5-minute Artisan bread will find these to be perfect. They would also be useful for storing items (like flour for more bread). They are easy to clean (mine had no oily film on them like one reviewer claimed) and durable. These are the ones to buy.

Cambro 6 qrt. round containers & covers
Just like most reviewers I plan on using these containers for storing bread dough. I was reluctant to order because of the dimensions given in the product description. 9 4/5 by 10 1/5 by 18 inches. My refrigerator has very modest dimensions. To handle an 18 inch tall container would require removing a shelf. Do I really want to turn that much of my refrigerator over to bread dough? No. In one place it is stated that the 18 inch measurement is when stacked. OK. Estimate about a 15% deduction based on the picture. Still too tall. Order anyway based on all the reviewers using these for the same purpose for which I need them.
They just arrived. They are a perfect size. Actual measurements for a single container are 8 inches tall, 7 1/2 inches bottom diameter and 10 inches across top when handles are included (8 7/8 without handles).
Although I have not yet used them I can tell they will be just right for my purpose. So don't be frightened off by the measurements given in the product description.

Initially I wasn't sure this would be worth the money, but I'm so glad I bought these! This two-pack with lids is a great deal, and I even did comparison pricing with a local restaurant supply shop that often has bargains. The supply store also sold these containers, again with the lids separately, making the purchase of one container and lid roughly $12. I ordered these containers to use with recipes from Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day, as well as the Healthy Bread book, and I am thrilled. I didn't find an unusual coating on the containers after unwrapping them as a previous reviewer did. In fact, I gave them a good wash with soap and water and promptly filled them with dough to refrigerate. These containers are worlds easier to use than my randomly shaped mixing bowls covered with plastic wrap that never really sticks and just fills the garbage can. I may also try brining a smaller chicken for the first time, now that I have the perfect container!

Nice, big size
These are perfect for rising dough (especially sourdough). They seem sturdy and the tops fit well. I would buy again and use for storage, too.

Loved getting a set of two. Perfect size for proofing bread/pizza doughs.

Just what they said
These were exactly what they said they were.
You probably could get them locally for about the same price or less.

containers are great but lids don't fit right--hard to get them on
I bought these for my sourdough starter so I won't really need the lids as much as I might if I used them for other storage. Read more

Perfect for bread dough
This works perfectly for Artisan Bread in 5 Minutes. I could not find this in any of the usual stores.
