I bought these as an investment to help meal prep and stick to a tight budget. It's been over a month since I purchased the containers, and I can safely say, they've survived the torture I've put them through. Left alone in a plastic grocery bag in the back of my car for a few days, ran through the dishwasher when hand washing didn't seem to plausible (especially after being left in the back of the car...the smell alone wasn't great either), and using them to hold my favorite chill recipe from my husband, and vegetable lasagna. Although they're not made of steel or some other kind of high tech plastic, leakage hasn't been a problem, not saying it won't either as they age....and continue to survive the torture I put them through. But then again, I make sure each one is locked tight without food in between the lid and the container. Because I know a thing or two about how liquid blocks liquid (it's a science thing), a little moisture on the edges of the bowl while I'm prepping seems to create a nice seal while they hang out in the fridge until I eat them. I have liked them so much, that I purchased a set of round ones for soups and salads. While this style is great with two sections to keep foods "untouchable" from each other, they're not ideal for soups and salads. Not saying it's impossible because, well, I've used them for those items...and they've survived. Basically, if you need something that you can torture, wash, and reuse, these are a pretty good deal for their price.
I may be writing too soon but I've used them today and I'm in love. Spacious and sturdy enough for my meals.
These containers are great! I follow the 21 Day Fix meal plan, and I prep my lunches for the week on Sunday in these containers. I love that they stack and lock together after I fill them, no sliding around in the fridge. I also love how little room they take up in my container drawer, 15 containers and lids use less space than 4 of the "disposable" kind you buy in the grocery store. Great products.
Oh my goodness. So I started doing meal prep since I work out. I do lunch and dinners for the weekday..10 meals..but I'm not always consistent with the dinners. But...these are great. They keep the food cold, and don't mess up when u nuke em for 5 minutes. they wash good and don't keep a smell. I like the fact that you can stack them as well as the covers to save space. If you do meal prep, these are mandatory. My friends and coworkers are doing the same thing now. They ask me where I got the containers. I tell them I got them at Amazon!. As for other brands, I don't know if they'll do the same. I did notice however, that sometimes, if I don't push the lids down snap tight..the liquids will leak, especially if you put the container on its side or upside down. Why would you do that?? Well, I have to pack my lunch, tea and water in my bag. the container is usually frozen so no probs, but if I let it thaw on it's side..that's when I get juice all over my plastic bag. but that may be a universality for these things..
I've tried a few different brands of these for meal prep. These are by far the best I've used! They're sturdier and seal better.

Description
In love with this product! I've been always looking for containers that can hold decent amount of food and that actually can holds heat. I'm so surprised that this product is actually serving those two functions perfectly. I used this to pack lunch for my son, and I'm surprised that it's still warm when it gets at noon. I will definitely recommend this product to my friends!
I did a lot of comparison shopping and finally decided on Freshware. BPA free, microwave safe, freezer safe, and stackable we're must haves. I also bought the single compartment ones and love those too.
Sturdy enough to last, yet inexpensive enough to replace as needed.
They do open a bit tough, but that helps to minimize leaks. Recommend these without hesitation!
I got these after trying the single compartment and 3 compartment containers. The singles are the best because there’s less chance of the middle cracking, but not so good for keeping anything separate. I already reviewed the 3 compartment with a couple of updates so I won’t repeat myself here and say why you shouldn’t buy them.
With the 2 compartment containers, I can keep fruits separate from the main dish. The lid is tight-fitting and there’s been no leakage that I’ve seen so far. Their size is just right and holds a good amount of food, especially with the domed lids. I also like how nicely they stack together. I’ve only been using these for about three weeks, off and on (I’m a terrible meal prepper) and so far they are great and I would recommend them. If that changes, I will edit/update this.
I love these containers. I've been using them about two weeks now, and they are among the best that I have used. Dishwasher and microwave safe, and they are lightweight. I used to get the non-divided meal prep containers, but found that stuff like veggies or rice wouldn't always heat up well mixed in with everything else. Unless you're prepping a one dish meal, dividers are a must! The one con I found with these containers is that the lid is difficult to open the first few times. They become easier after a few uses, but be careful. The stiff plastic can cut your finger if you're not careful. Would definitely recommend these for anyone looking to meal prep.
Overall, these are great containers for an outstanding price. I haven’t had them long, but I’ve washed them in the dishwasher and used them in the microwave several times, and there’s no sign of warping or damage. The size is perfect, big enough that I’m not starving after a meal but small enough for healthy portion control. My only complaint is that the lid can be a little difficult to close all the way around, and this can result in liquid leakage if it tips in your lunch bag. But this is only a small issue that happens if you’re not careful. I would definitely purchase another style from this brand and would recommend them to anybody interested in meal prepping.
