Progressive International DKS-200 Prep Solutions Brown Sugar Keeper Box

The brown sugar keeper was an exact match to the previous one my wife purchased several years ago. And, the container arrived in time for a last minute Christmas gift.

The very old Tupperware container I used for keeping brown sugar soft, cracked. So I was looking for a container small enough to be easily stored but big enough to hold 2 pounds of brown sugar. The size of this container is such that it is not hard to find a convenient spot for it and the addition of the terra cotta insert was a definite plus. Now I've only had this container for a short time, so I can only hope that the long-term results are as good as the short-term results! The sugar I placed in this container was lumpy with many very hard and solid clumps of brown sugar. Some were like rocks! I soaked the terra cotta insert as directed and then decided to just attach it back in the lid, instead of placing it on or in the sugar, as directed. I waited a day or so and checked. Sure enough, the brown sugar had softened completely. I don't think there was one hard clump! I have used the sugar a couple times since and it has remained soft. I can't speak for long term use or how well the container itself will last, but it's not a huge investment and so far I'm very pleased with it.

I was looking for a container specifically designed for brown sugar. As most of you know it has a tendency to turn into a rock hard block. I didn't know that a ceramic addition would solve the problem so that along with the airtight container I am in business.

I buy my brown sugar at Sam's in the large size and it always gets had before I use all of it. After I put it in the keeper it softened up in less than a day.

I really love this item but was upset when I found it for $5.00 less at Home goods. I was so happy when Wal-Mart matched the price for me when I showed my receipts.

For years struggled with brown sugar clumping. Looked for suitable containers for quite a long time. Stumbled across this one and thought I would give it a try. So far, seems perfect. Sturdy and very we'll made.

After my last brown sugar container decided to spontaneously explode (still not sure what happened there), I switched to this Progressive keeper and couldn't be happier. It does exactly what it's supposed to do: keeps brown sugar soft and clump-free. The terra cotta disc works great, and the seal is solid. Most importantly, it has remained fully intact on my counter with zero signs of imminent detonation. Highly recommend for anyone looking for reliable, explosion-free sugar storage.

I cannot give a review of this product because I am unable to use it. The item was delivered not in a protective box but simply dropped into a large bubble-lined envelope, with no packing materials to keep it from shipping damage. As a result, the envelope was crushed in transit, and the bottom of the item was badly cracked. I returned the package to my local WalMart for exchange, but they did not have them in the store so only gave me a WalMart gift card in the amount of the purchase, minus the shipping charges. I have since ordered the item from another source, and it arrived in perfect condition. It seems to be just what I was looking for.

Sugar seems to get hard on top even after following directions for the disc to keep the brown sugar moist

I received the wrong container! I really needed a brown sugar keeper, and was instead sent the sugar keeper for white sugar. I have contacted Walmart 2 times without any help. I paid more for the item I ordered than the item I received is worth, so I'm not sure what to do now.....
