Great quality, lacks in size

I love the quality of the product. The magnetic food scoop is a great feature. I was disappointed with the size. My dog's bag of food is 33 pounds but the description of this product says it holds approximately 40 pounds of food. I was not able to place the bag of dog food into the bin, I had to empty the contents into the bin and they barely fit.
Ordered two of the XL bins said to hold 40lbs, which I thought was perfect since my dogs food bags are 37lb. Both did not hold it all. Holds less than described. Still very big and beautiful, just would say it holds less than 35lbs.
This spacious pet food storage container effortlessly accommodates a full large bag of food, enhancing convenience. Its sleek, modern design complements indoor spaces while the magnetic scooper and removable interior liner simplify feeding and cleanup, making it a practical and stylish choice for pet owners.
I had hoped to be able to fit a 30 pound bag of dog food in the container as it was rated for 40 pound capacity. If you dump the bag out, it does easily fit. However, I prefer not to dump the bag and keep the food in the bag in the container. It did not fit, not even close. The ability to fit the bag was the only flaw. It looks good, seals very well, and the scoop is convenient. The wheels made it easy to move. It was solidly made. I ended up returning it, and the return went smoothly.
This container looks sleek in our kitchen, and is easy to use. With two large dogs, we buy 45-pound bags of dogfood; the can holds about 3/4 of that. The locking mechanism is not cumbersome, and looks as though it will keep the food fresh. Our dogs have not opened it either. We have had it for a week and love the look and functionality.
