Great Desiccant Option
IdahoMike✓ Verified Purchase•November 4, 2023
Works great. I've purchased a few different branded 750g silica gel canisters and this one works just as well as the slightly more expensive versions. Where other ones have the indicator beads just in the top cap, this one was entirely filled with indicator beads. Can't say that's a pro or con, but it's worth noting.
I use several of these to keep a basement safe dry inside, and they work very well. Even with the large, high capacity units, you may still need to recharge them (in the oven) fairly often. That's especially true if you're just using these for the first time. You may find yourself recharging these every few months until you can stabilize the humidity in your safe, then much less often as time goes on. At this rate, I currently recharge them every few months and they keep my safe quite dry.
Very happy with these, and I'll be purchasing more in the future.

Good price for the same thing from other more exspensive suppliers

Good cheaper solution to buying bulk desiccant for my gun safes. No magic to making this stuff so I don't care where its made as long as it sucks up moisture from the air. True you have a little bit of air space in the can but you are getting the advertised weight. Last I check a bag of chips or a box of cereal only comes half full as well.
I actually prefer that it has an air gap because I hoard all the little packs of descant that I get in various shipments and now I have a place to put it. Between two cans of this stuff I used up all the spare desiccant I had around.
Also this package comes with a paper moisture indicator telling you when to bake it. While it does have a lid with a window that window "does not" have the color changing type of desiccant in it. Its just a window that lets you see down to the primary desiccant.
I have a few of the US made units that cost twice as much as this one and it doesn't suck up moisture any better than this one does. Save your money and buy twice as many of these as you would the other ones.
5 Stars all around on this one.

My gun safe is quite large at 32 cu ft.
I use three of these in my safe. They keep RH well below 50%.
I check every Sunday to see if a recharge is needed since my safe is in a basement. If a recharge is needed, dump the media on a cookie sheet and bake until dry. Once dried, pour the media back in the can and you're back in business. It takes a LONG time for them to show the need for recharging but if the need arises, it's not complicated.
It's nice to have something that doesn't require electricity.
I absolutely love this product!

I purchased this to remove humidity from my safe which holds pro DSLR camera gear. I tried standard silica packets and the laundry demudifier style before this and neither of those worked. I put the canister in the safe with 1/4 level of beads and it dropped the humidity from 49% to 39% in half a day. It was down to 36% at the 24-hour mark. That's a little too low for camera gear so I'm running with 1/8 canister right now (medium size safe). After one month, the level went form 39% to 46% so I removed the beads and they were black (ready for recharging). I just replaced the beads but will continue to monitor the humidity with my hygrometer. Very easy to use and very effective!
100% Indicating

Just received so no comment on effectiveness. Do very much like the canister; should be, hope it is, stainless steel.
Reason for early comment is that I was surprised to see that all the beads are indicating. That's what I wanted and what I thought I bought but, I saw somewhere, perhaps in reviews or seller's store, images that showed orange indicating beads in lid only, and clear, non-indicating beads in the rest of the can. Seeing that, clear beads, I felt cheated. I also felt that just a handful of beads in a tray in the lid would not be a good indicator of the absorption level of 99.9% of the rest so I was skeptical - of what I was seeing as well as the effectiveness of the indicating feature.
All beads are orange indicating. Hooray!
