Gamma2 Vittles Vault Stackable Pet Food Storage

These bins are just what I needed! The sixty pound bin holds three seventeen pound bags of dog chow, while the forty pound one holds two bags. I keep the dog chow in the 60 and the cat chow in the 40. Now, while they advertise them being stackable, they are only marginally so. There is an indention on one side and a protrusion on the other and this is supposed to lock them together but does so only marginally and is stable only when they are full... and you cannot stack one size on a different size with any degree of stability. I have two forty pound bins stacked for two different flavors of cat food and that works fairly well in spite of the instability. They do keep the food These bins are just what I needed!

They do keep the food dry and vermin free and are easily accessed with a screw on lid that is easy to operate. Each container comes with a little cup/scoop. … more

We have these for cat food in 2 separate containers and also for chicken feed and the large labrador bags of food. I bought this one to store rice in. I asked DH to get some rice while he was out shopping. I didn't realize he was in a box warehouse store. He came home with a 50 lb bag of rice. I fretted over how to store THAT MUCH rice to keep it from getting bugs/stale and then I had to feed the dog...BINGO! These are great. Don't OVER TIGHTEN and you will be golden. People complain that the gasket shreds and it is because they over tighten the lid. Just seat the lid in the grooves then give it a gentle spin. It will tighten itself on its own. The gasket keeps bugs out so that you don't We have these for cat food in 2 separate containers and also for chicken feed and the large labrador bags of food. I bought this one to store rice in.

I've always used Vittles Vaults for my dogs' food because they seal tightly and are sturdy. I'd give this stackable one 3.5 stars if I could. It works just as well as the previous ones I've owned - of you don't stack them. But if you stack them, and the top one has anywhere near the 40 lb. capacity of food inside, the bottom one bows just enough to make it impossible to line up the threads to fully close the screw-on lid. I ended up rearranging my garage and putting them side by side, which works but defeats the purpose of having bought the stackable in the first place.

Unfortunately these do not stack well. I was unimpressed when I stacked these empty, - the top container had little stability and would have easily fallen off. After I filled each with food I ran into another problem, the weight of the food in the top container pushed on the bottom container and distorted the shape of the opening making it very difficult to open or close the bottom lid. I have two dogs and purchased one of these for each of them. I bought them because I tried one out at a friend's house and loved how easily the lid screwed open and shut - if you only need one of these, or don't plan to stack them then you will be happy with this purchase, otherwise it is a dissappointment Unfortunately these do not stack well.

I’ve had Vittle’s Vaults for years. I was super excited about having stackable ones. While the original are an awesomely great product, these don’t quite live up to their name. Once you place any more than 10lbs or so in them, you cannot unscrew or replace to lids on the bottom ones. That said, they are totally waterproof and bug proof. They do the job.

I’ve used vittles vault in the past and they are quality food storage containers no doubt. I bought 2 of the stackable 40lb vaults recently and I have to say, they don’t stack very well. Even just two of them are unstable. I was hoping they would “lock” together. The weight of the top one bends the opening of the bottom making it difficult to screw the lid back on.

this is the best thing EVER-wish I would have ASKED you sooner-you CHEWY are awesome at directing me to what I want-thank you so much-and this is perfect because it locks/turns pretty tight-so our 1 year old isn't getting in to it either lol-and the mice that we know but don't see-can't penetrate this either...perfect food container-and it fits the BIG bag of our furchildren's food the Iams 30lb bag-which we get from here as well-and omgosh couldn't be delivered any faster-talk about quick-we Love you Chewy!!

They are good quality. If you do stack them though and they are both full of dog food, you have to slightly lift the top one when closing the bottom because the weight of the top one bends the below one enough to make the lid not want to go back on. Nothing too bad though, I still would have bought knowing this. They also come with scoops which is nice.

I Thought that this was a great storage idea at a reasonable price. I like the easy to open lid and I especially like the "no ant access" feature of this lid! I bought two of these for longer time storage in case of emergencies such as hurricanes and flooding, so being stackable was another plus!

I previously used 5 gallon buckets to hold the dog kibble. I think these are easier to open and provide a very secure closure. They also take up less room. I bought one to try, and just placed an order for 2 more for the various kibbles I have to store.
