The Neoflam 8-piece set utilizes a lever-action compression system instead of traditional side clips, providing a low-profile lid that stays flush when locked. This design is particularly useful for maximizing shelf clearance in tight spaces. The body is constructed from a high-density SAN hybrid, which is designed to resist food oils and maintain its clear appearance over time. The silicone gaskets can be removed, which helps with thorough cleaning and sanitization.
Tests indicate that the lever mechanism is built to handle frequent opening and closing. For the most stable storage, placing heavier grains in the base units helps maintain a lower center of gravity, as the interlocking grooves are shallow. While the seal is designed for an airtight fit, keeping the rim free of fine particulates like sugar or flour helps ensure the vacuum stays consistent. Hand-washing is recommended to prevent micro-crazing of the plastic over long-term use.
For a taller, single-item alternative for dry goods, the Rubbermaid 16-cup container offers a different pour-spout design.
