RIS USA Dog Food Storage Container: Portable & Airtight

Dog Food Locker │ Rolls Easy │ Airtight Seal │ Holds a LOT of Kibble
I had two main requirements for a dog food container:(1) I wanted Coopie’s food to stay fresh—he eats the same thing every day, so the least I can do is make sure it’s not stale.(2) I wanted something that could hold a lot of food and roll out of sight when not in use.The IRIS container met both of those needs and more.It feels sturdy, is BPA-free plastic and has quality rollers on its base. It doesn’t big but it holds a big amount of food. It originally lived in our pantry and fit nicely under a shelf. I later moved it out next to his feeding station and realized it actually looks clean and low-profile—unlike a floppy, half-open food bag. I got a container for my parent’s too when Coop visits – theirs is in the laundry room which is where I took the pictures.We have used this for a couple years now and the seal is still intact and keeps the kibble fresh. Highly recommend.PROS✅ Airtight – large seal between top/bottom✅ Great Wheels – rolls easily✅ Slim Space-Saving Shape – holds a lot of food too✅ Two options to secure✅ Quality materialCONSNone from me. Some reviews mention wheels popping out if dragged over uneven surfaces, but we’ve never had that issue.

Useful storage container with fixable flaws
If I had saved the delivery box I would have quickly returned the container before assembling it. My concern is the hinge at the back of the lid. It is definitely the weak point of the product. The hinge consists of only two short, thin plastic pins that snap into two thin plastic half-circle cut-outs that are part of the body of the container.Although the manufacturer says the lid latch in front will weaken and fail over time, the hinge itself does not stay attached without pushing it on each time it is used. I’m convinced the hinge will not only fail before the latch, but soon.The lid has a silicone gasket that takes a little hand pressure and patience to push into place to seal the lid to the container. The lid must first be centered in place on the container. I think this will take less pressure to accomplish after the gasket is used more than a few times and softens into shape.I am happy about the size of the container because I store pet food in the bags it is sold in. I can easily keep at least three@ 3 1/2 lb bags on hand in the container, laid flat, perhaps four. That will allow me more pantry shelf space. After a bag has been opened, I close it with a chip clip so the food stays fresh. Then I return the bag to the storage container on top of the unopened bags. The included scoop that can be stored on the under side of the lid is handy, but way too big for my pet’s food portions. I’ll keep it stored under the lid until I can think of another use for it.I like the four wheels that simply popped into the recesses in the bottom of the storage container. I simply tapped them evenly, gently, repeatedly with the heel of my hand until they snapped into place. This was no bother and it did not hurt my hand or the container itself. I think the wheels are a sure thing for durability on the container. They do help me easily move the container to my pet’s feeding station.If (when} the snap-in hinge pins fail, I intend to drill small holes into both the lid and the back of the storage container. I’ll use cable ties to keep the lid loosely in place. I am sure I’ll come up with a similar solution for the front latch when (if) the latch fails. I don’t like to throw away items that can be fixed for a small amount of time and money.All in all, I think I’ll be using the wheeled storage container with lid for years to come. It could also be useful for other storage needs than pet food, so perhaps I’ll buy more of them. I’lI find a way to live with the the minor manufacturing flaws.

Como contenedor de croquetas.PRÁCTICO, MUY FUERTE

Vale la pena y las croquetas se mantienen super bien.

Have had this for a year or so, it holds a big bag of dog food and wheels around nicely. My dog can’t open it on his own and it’s durable.
