Quality and Material

Pros:

• "Good quality. they are pretty heavy but to be expected as they are glass."
• "These glass containers are fine and boy do those lids lock and seal."
• "The glass containers have proven to be remarkably sturdy, and their crystal-clear design remains unchanged even after months of regular usage."

• "These are high quality, glass, with solid plastic lids. Leak proof."
• "The glass containers are thick and sturdy, like the old Pyrex containers."
• "These are exactly what they appear to be - snap on lids over quality glass bowls of various size for food storage."

• "The glass itself is of inferior quality. The edges chipped way too easily; basically breaking in the cupboard."
• "These are low quality glass containers that are not durable."
• "The glass was a little thinner and felt more fragile than pyrex."
• "I got them in February and almost half of them now have small glass flakes that have come off of the rims."

• "They serve the purpose for us for leftovers and holding the veggies."
• "They are wonderful for soups, sauces, veggies, anything."
• "They work better than the Pyrex set I've been using for years!"

Cons:

• "I switched out all of my plastic Tupperware for glass and have had these for over a year. They have held up great!"
