I currently have over 70 of these tins and have been using them since Bed Bath & Beyond started selling them. At first they were .99 each but now go for 2.99!! Since the lids do tighten up over time, they need replacing occasionally so the fact that this 24 count box avgs 1.50 each is marvelous!! They come individually packaged and not a single can was dented or hard to open!! And I love the fact that the set includes two types of labels, both the most common spices/herbs and blanks for you to label blends, rubs, etc. I bought a second set a few days later and plan to buy a 3rd for my best friend's birthday! Although I have multiple rows on my fridge and on metal plated throughout my kitchen,
this pic shows cake pans mounted on a narrow wall and the tins are sorted by food ethnicity: Asian, French, Italian, and Latin/Spanish. I buy replacement spices in bags from Penzeys and Spice House online to save $ so these are a great investment as well as a great space saver!

I ABSOLUTELY Love these Magnetic Spice Tins, I ordered 3 Sets. I love to cook and needed something that required LESS Storage Space in my Kitchen, My Husband Built me the Spice Rack and attached the Metal Plates that hold the containers. The Magnetic on the backs of the Tins is STRONG and holds very well to the Metal Plates, even with your spice tins completely full. If your looking for something Unique, Space Saving and Just Lovely to look at, BUY these Tins, they are AMAZING!

These are amazing! What a wonderful way to organize my spices and keep them accessible. No more cluttered shelves,little bottles falling all over and getting lost in my cabinets. These make my kitchen function more efficiently. I can see exactly what spices I have,which ones I need,and I won't buy doubles,just because I can't find a spice jar,plus they don't go stale,because they don't get lost in the cabinets.Now I have more cabinet space.
I like that you can easily display Spices on refridgerator..or, I bought the extra stainless steel mounting plates and i installed them as an attractive border underneath my kitchen cabinets!
These are a must have for any home chef,they make an impressive,but affordable gift. Definitely something I use an enjoy every day!

I would 100% recommend these to anyone who is slightly interested in spice containers. I live in a small one bedroom apartment so space is very limited. I've been buying spices by the ounce so I was in the market for spice containers and all of a sudden I come across these!! Not only was I able to store my spices BUT I was able to save some much valued space! I love everything about these tins and they hold up pretty well on the fridge as I was somewhat concerned from reading other reviews. I decided to use the preprinted chalkboard labels on mine and they look great! Now I need to find more spices to I can order more tins! Also, the conversion chart that came along with these tins is pretty cool and I've used it several times as I find recipes from other countries using a different measuring system.

I like these so much i ordered 12 more. It has been incredibly convenient to have my spices visible on the side of my fridge when i'm cooking rather than strewn about the nooks and crannies of my "spice" cabinet, just filling these guys led me to 5+ containers of open cloves and nutmeg. Hoping these may also help prevent the constant repurchase of lesser used spices. I also love seeing the colors of the spices through the little windows, the stickers are nicely made and even the free conversions magnet is super helpful to have in the kitchen. I would recommend them to anyone, especially if your kitchen has a lot of black and metal, they look great against a black background.
If i had any minor complaint: I wish they didn't have the shaker twist thing on the rim, not that its poorly made or anything, i just dont use it and sometimes i forget its there and sprinkle some spice when i didn't mean to.
Overall its great for my needs and love em.

These are absolutely awesome! I live in a small apartment with a non-existent pantry so I was using one of my cabinets for spices. It wasn't the best way to use my limited cabinet space so I had been trying to figure out how to reorganize. I had previously bought wall-mounts that had inserts for the spice jars, but over time, they got loose and every time I opened door, spices would fall out. I did some research and chose the item with the best reviews! Thanks for not letting me down ! There is a cheaper alternative that looks similar, but there were many iffy reviews. You definitely won't go wrong with these ! Well worth the price! I have accidently dropped them and no spills or breakage.
As other viewers have mentioned, if you are placing these on your fridge, make sure the openings are upwards, just in case you don't close them properly. I will definitely been ordering more!
p.s. it makes cooking a breeze. Just grab what you need, use and return back to fridge. The 2 different label styles were convenient. I was unsure if all of my spice names would be there, but they sure were ! Even anise !

Love these tins! Very high quality and no issues with any of the 48 I bought. The plastic front pretty much looks like glass, not like some cheaper ones I've seen in stores before. Have cleared up some counter and cabinet space, and I LOVE not having a jumble of different container shapes to wrangle. As some others have mentioned, I was a little leery on the magnet strength, but they all seem to be holding just fine. I have mine on the side of my fridge, but I did notice that the magnet's hold is slightly stronger if I were to put them on the stainless steel front of the fridge. Volume-wise, they will hold the amount that comes in standard size spice containers.

I haven't had these tins long, but so far they are perfect for what I needed. I moved into a new home that is short on storage space, so where can I store all my many little spice jars? These tins came to the rescue, because they stick to the side of my refrigerator, thereby saving shelf space. They look very pretty too, and you can arrange them in different patterns. The colors show through the lids, because the included labels are clear, allowing the different colors and shapes of spices to show through. The lid fits just right. It isn't hard to get off, but it doesn't just fall off either. You can twist the lid for shaking or pouring if you don't want to dip and measure the amount. A big point for me was that they hold the entire amount that you get when you buy a small jar of spice. These do that easily. There are many labels included, so I don't have to print my own. Compared to other brands that I saw on the web, this was the best value, and I am so far very happy with them.

We recently moved to a new (for us) home, and there's not as much cabinet space as we would like. My daughter found this product online, the perfect way to save cabinet space by mounting spices on the cabinet door. We ordered (separately) a thin metal plate that we screwed on the inside of the cabinet door. Then we got these magnetic spice tins that "stick" to the plate. Now when we open the cabinet door - voila! - there are the spices right there, ready to go into whatever delightful dish my wife and/or daughter happen to be cooking up. The magnets are quite strong - it's not hard to remove one of the tins for use, but they stay right where we put them. We like it so much that we just ordered another set of 12. (We are a very "spicy" family.) Highly recommended!

My family cooks a lot and we had two drawers jammed full of spices and it was always a pain to find them. These magnetic spice tins are amazing. We have them stuck to the side of our fridge and it's such a nice, colorful, off-the-counter way to store them. I don't have to dig through drawers anymore to find what I'm looking for, and it makes me remember that we have spices when I'm cooking something without a specific recipe. We started out by ordering 2 sets, and just purchased a third. They are high-quality, visually appealing, and just all-around awesome.

The product camempckaged nicely with cardboard, plastic, and tissue paper protecting each jar. Both label packages were also delivered.
I did not wash the jars before use because many reviewers had issues with rust and water gathering in the lids.
The tops work well, and I found they were very easy to put on/off. This is coming from someone who sucks at opening jars.
The jars fit a ton of spice inside! More than I expected. I'm a little worried about my celery seed jar because I think I overfilled it. Now the jar feels strange when it goes on/off my fridge, but there are no issues with the product itself. No bumps on the jar or magnet.
When I started sticking these on the side of my fridge, I worried they wouldn't hold. I jumped around my kitchen like a madwoman attempting to knock them off, and they stayed exactly where I'd placed them. The magnets are very strong!
Overall, I'm very pleased with this product and I recommend it to anyone looking to save some space in their kitchen.
