This large-capacity storage unit is designed to streamline kitchen workflows by offering a one-handed push-button dispensing method. With a volume of 1.5 liters, it is sized to hold a standard box of many dry goods. The body is crafted from a blend of ABS and polystyrene, balancing the need for a clear view of your supplies with a sturdy outer frame. To maintain the clarity of the plastic, it is recommended to hand wash the unit, as high dishwasher temperatures may cause the material to warp.
The lid features a silicone gasket designed to provide a functional moisture barrier, helping to keep dry goods like rice or beans protected from the open air. Tests show that the seal provides an effective barrier for several months of regular use, though the integrity of the wall mount is the primary factor in the unit's daily performance.
Usage and Maintenance Tips
- Best used for uniform dry goods like white rice, lentils, or small beads.
- Avoid using with delicate flakes, as the dispensing mechanism may crush them.
- The spring-loaded lever is designed for approximately 2,000 cycles of use.
While the adhesive backing offers a convenient setup, the weight of high-density goods like sugar or flour can put significant stress on the bond. For a more secure installation that supports the full 1.5L capacity, using the integrated mounting points with screws is the most practical approach.
If you find you need a smaller portion-controlled option, the dry food dispenser with a measuring cup is an excellent alternative.
