I purchased these cannisters to replace an older set of copper cannisters that had become dented through 17 years of military moves. I love the plastic seals on these cannisters, but the finish is horrible. I have kept them wiped off with a damp cloth, and I dry with a soft dishtowel, but over the year I have owned them, the finish has become more and more faded, spotted, and tarnished. I tried buffing a little spot with a copper cleaner, but the copper finish is so thin that there is literally nothing to buff. The lacquer finish is getting cloudy and the shine is gradually fading. I also bought the tool caddy, which of course is not handled as much as the cannisters are, and it is having the same issues. These are just not worth the money - I would not recommend at all!

I received this product and found several damaged pieces. In addition, I thought the quality of the product did not match either the picture of the item or the price. I sent it back.

I bought thesse canisters after i cantacted the manufacturer and found that they are NOT COPPER they are plain steel or VERY low grade stainless steel. A magnet will NOT stick to copper, or high grade stainless steel. My regular kitchen magnet clamps right on to these canisters.I have an old set of nickel lined copper canisters and a magnet will not stick.If you are looking for real copper avoid these canisters

I have bought 2 sets of these canisters. The plastice seal in the cover are tight and keeps the contents dry. Easy to keep clean. I am pleased with the purchase.

Bought them for less tha $30.00 good deal! Nice on the outside. But plastic on the inside. All in all I`m happy with the purchase!
