These are really fantastic quality - the tops fit very well, and the containers are incredibly sturdy, as I've dropped them way too many times to count and remain shocked that they withstand all of my abuse. Can't recommend enough.
These glass container are the best. I do not like plastic containers they stain get greasy. That is why these are the best. The lids and leake proff they go in the microwave. Dishwasher safe. The right size for one person or smaller sizes.
I've been trying to get rid of as much plastic and single use as I can. Glass and stainless are my preferred items. These containers are amazing! Strong and wonderfully crafted. They hold more than you think and are great for lunch boxes.
I received two of these containers for my Mighty Fix subscription awhile ago (the small square one, and a rectangle one) and I use them all the time. The small square one especially is great for a small amount of something for kids' lunches - hummus, fruit, kid-sized portion of rice, garbanzo beans, etc. My 7 year old doesn't have any problems getting the lids on and off. The glass is thinner than a lot of glass containers so they're lighter weight but still seem to be quite strong and high quality.
These little containers have been great for things such as hard boiled eggs, sauces, seeds and so on. They are cute, durable and versatile. So glad to have these in my collection!
I spent a lot of time looking for glass food storage containers, and these are perfect! I needed food storage that nested well for storage, something that most glass containers don't do very well. These bowls are tapered enough to allow nesting, while being broad enough at the base to allow for easy mixing or eating. They also stack nicely with the lids on. Additionally, the lids are very tight and don't leak, even when the bowls are turned sideways in a lunch bag.
I'll be back for more!
I love this item because it is glass and the cover seems to be very high quality. I'm hoping it will last a long time!
This is a very nice storage container. It's convenient to put leftovers in. We actually have started using the smallest size as a bowl for our picky cat. The contour of the side of the container is just right that she can eat all of her food without pushing it around and out of the bowl. If there's any left, it's convenient to just put the lid on and pop it in the fridge. We also have the larger size. The only reason I'm giving 4 stars instead of 5 is that it isn't oven safe. I would love to be able to take a small leftover meal right from fridge to oven.
I'm going back for my 3rd purchase of more of these containers. I have them in all sizes and use them all the time, mostly for baby food storage. They are not leakproof, but do a great job of going from freezer to microwave to dishwasher. I use removable labels from an office supply store to label the baby food, and the labels come right off. They stack great, so you can have one big stack of all the sizes together. I would give them 5 stars if they didn't leak, but it's not much of a problem the way I usually use them. Most of the truly leakproof glass storage containers I have seen don't stack, so it's a compromise.
I received two small Lys containers as part of my Mighty Fix subscription. They are wonderful sizes for storing leftover tidbits. The glass is as study as the Rubbermaid containers I use.
Unfortunately, I find the lids difficult to use. When the arthritis in my hands flair up I find them too fiddly to get on or off - not enough bend and very small tabs. I suspect this would make these difficult for children to use as well.
