Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of FoodSaver 2-Quart Bulk Storage CanisterCustomer Review: Tilia should RECALL these BULK canisters ...... Summary: 1 Stars
Our Tilia unit sits prominently on the kitchen counter and it gets used numerous times a day! I have 20 of their white dome top designer canisters and six of the bulk food canisters. Even though the bulk ones are great for cookies, cereal, a lot of different corn chips and crackers they have a design problem in that the tops get almost microscopic stress cracks which allow the air the enter and makes them useless. Now here is the KICKER, Tilia says that these tops can not be put in the diswasher, and even though we have hand washed these tops I believe the stress cracks develop truough time and NOT misuse! I mean c'mon now how are you going to misuse these dumb things they don't work well as frisbees at all. Matter of fact the square bulk canister top .... oh well you get the point So ... Tilia will replace the item free of charge BUT ONLY UP TO 1 YEAR AFTER purchase.......ALSO WORSE, they do not replace only the tops OR the plastic rings that have a tendency to stretch after time and usage! I askied Tilia if they were NUTS or what .... I spend 25 bucks fo a canister and run the risk of having to dump it if it cracks after 1 year! So far I now have 3 canisters with stress cracks and I had Tilia replace 3 of them already! Tilia told me they aren't gonna replace any more of them and I told I sure ain't buying any bulk canisters..... I did find that using an expoxy glue that comes in two seperate tubes to be mixed and is sold at ACE will fill in the cracks after the epoxy hardens if you put the glue on while trying to get a vaccum .... that way the expoy gets sucked into the tiny tiny cracks ... So far so good, let you know next yearif I still got any bulk containers left .... TILIA YOU GOT A GREAT PRODUCT I'M AN AVID CUSTOMER BUT FIX THIS PROBLEM WITH THE BULK CANISTERS NOW .... OR AT LEAST REPLACE THE TOPS ONLY these items are too too expensive to be worthless after ony a few years !!!!!
