Quality and Durability

Pros:

  • "These glass containers are a PERFECT replacement. High quality glass that heats in the microwave without a problem."
  • "Every lid is perfect still and the glass has never broke."
  • "The glass is thick and quality, the lids are thick and quality and the lid locks are also quality."
  • "They are very durable. They have been dropped and thrown in backpacks... still like new!"
  • "High quality thick glass containers with lids that fit perfect."
  • "These are top-quality glass containers made with a thick glass base."
  • "The glass doesn't get burning hot after being in the microwave."

Cons:

  • "There was a spider in one of the containers when it first arrived - make sure to clean it out before using."
  • "One time while trying to get them apart one of them shattered."
  • "For the price am very disappointed in these containers. The side on one of the items is already chipped and I found glass in another unit."
  • "This container broke completely without being hit hard or dropped."
  • "After about 4 months of use, the glass around the inner edge of the containers are all flaking off due to stacking."
  • "At first I thought there was a film of dust on the containers, then I realized it was fine shards of glass, as my fingertips started bleeding."
  • "These containers break very easily. I broke two just getting them out of the box and putting them away!"

Seal and Leak Proofing

Pros:

  • "Makes meal planning a breeze, the seal stays put yet is easily removed for cleaning."
  • "No leaks."
  • "Fits a very decent amount of food. The seal is very tight on the lid."
  • "The plastic lid has a rubber gasket and seals well."
  • "These glass food prep containers are definitely leak proof!"
  • "Air tight seal on the lids."
  • "The lids have a great seal."

Cons:

  • "Love these for preparing individual meals. Dislike the freezer burn. Even if the food is thoroughly cooled beforehand, you will get freezer burn."
  • "The tops don’t close very well and they must not be perfectly sealed because they let all the smells out so it fills up your fridge would not recommend."
  • "The tops break a seal in the freezer. I have to bag them in a freezer bag to prevent freezer burn."
  • "They break in the dishwasher and randomly for no reason."
  • "They’re the perfect size for storing most leftovers in the fridge, and even for freezing them sometimes."
  • "Not 100% leak proof. Have to jiggle the lid to get the seal to fit properly."
  • "I'm still using it. But don't believe in the leak proof advertisement, the seal is not reliable, but it is what you get for paying less."

Customer Service and Support

Pros:

  • "I emailed the company to see if I could just buy replacement lids which they don't do, but they were super helpful and VERY quick to respond."

  • "They replaced no problem. Answered my email right away. Excellent service and product."

  • "The retailer seemed really motivated to send a replacement lid for me which was awesome."
  • "I am looking to purchase another set! I love these!"
  • "I’ve had mine for a year. The glass is so thick and durable. No leakage."

Cons:

  • "I’ve tried to contact the manufacturer about buying replacement lids but I have not been able to get them to respond."
  • "Contacted customer product’s customer service via email. No response from them."
  • "I like the containers but one of the lids was missing the grey seal. They come out easy maybe when it was packed it fell out. I emailed the company but no response."
  • "I emailed the manufacturer to see if I could by a smaller pack but never got a response."
