#samples The largest of these (4 quart{16 cups}) will hold all but a little bit of a bag of flour. I like the look of the stainless steel and the fact of the seal around the lid. I {mistakenly} did not recieve my order (it was a different order i was expecting), and they rushed me another collar. The rougher the machine the more wear on the fabric and more pilling, lint, etc.... I would highly recommend these sheets for the price and the great quality for the price. [I would rate them 5 stars if they were heavier and soft as cashmere, but for the money definitely a good buy.]
