I love the way this looks on our kitchen countertop, but one caution: we have 2 of these, one for coffee beans, and one for my husband's fiber (powder). Storing powder in here has proved problematic because the individual grains get stuck to the plastic seal and then the top won't seal - it pops up. At first I thought something was wrong with that canister, but it's because of the powder specifically. We wash the seal off from time to time (you can remove it and wash it) and it seals again, but sort of annoying to have to do that. All in all, I am happy with my purchase - that just came as a surprise.
