Rubbermaid 28-Piece Clear/Grey Food Storage Containers, Premium Snap Bases, and Various Size Lids, Perfect for Meal Prep, Leftovers, and Dishwasher Safe

Lid design changed a bit but still fit.
The lid inner design changed a bit since my last set. A testament that they last. The new design still fit the old lids as well as the cheaper red sets. These clear plastic sets really hold up with regular use and freezer storage. They are a very good product. Be careful because they wont be returned if you let them out of your sight.

Original Design
I ordered the pack of 5. These are the original design of this style which you will not find in the stores. It is a clear plastic which works well in the microwave but cracks in the freezer. The one currently in the stores is a semi-transparent plastic, sort of a hazy white. It does not crack in the freezer but will melt in a ring around the top of your food, especially sweet surgery ones. It does not melt all the way threw but leaves a rough ring you cannot clean. You cannot get everything. You need to choose between the microwave and the freezer. I prefer the microwave for these and use cheaper ones for the freezer.These are also the original style lids. They have plastic windows in the top made with the same hazy white plastic as the current one’s body in the stores. Sugars can splash on it and melt into the surface. It does not happen that often. The original ones are mostly a molded rubber that seals very well and is easy to handle. The original ones nested inside the container. At one time they made lids with the same materials that did not cost you volume of the container. They worked OK but did not seal as well.The current lids in the stores have a stiffer plastic top that is probably molded from sheet. They can be hard to get on and sometimes leak. Somewhere along the line I got this style lid with a little popup that vents the lid. The last ones I got did not have the popup vent. I really like the popup vent but still prefer the original lids.

Great containers with too-short lives
As an owner of several sets of these, and other sizes of the Rubbermaid Premier food storage containers, and with a long history of use dating back over many years, I can give them uniformly high marks for all points but durability. With a wide array of possible uses, your experience may vary, but mine includes heating food in the microwave frequently, which ultimately spells doom for them, even though they are rated as safe for microwave re-heating. They are wonderful for storage across the range of usual places, including freezer and refrigerator, but after multiple exposures to microwave heating, small cracks will form, and ultimately enlarge to become threats to containment of any liquids. The current version of lids, which duplicate the original version, seal well, preserving foods from excess oxygen and reducing spoilage. There was an intermediate version of lids that would pop off while re-heating food, but it appears they were widely disliked, and my recent purchases have all been with the original lid style to my considerable satisfaction. The clear plastic design makes these easy to use for visually identifiable storage, but be careful in cleaning because these containers with scuff and scratch, becoming less clear with age. Contrary to claims, they will also accept color from a limited number of foods, principally red ones, so some staining is possible. Their reasonable footprint and storage capacity, stack-ability, and limited shelf space when unused are all assets that make these great containers. It is only sad that I know I will have to replace them again once the cracks take over.

Stain free stores container
These are the best.Storage continues out there, very sturdy.I tossed on my old ones out.Could not find a better set than this. I’m sure they’ll last for years like my last did.

Me gusta el tamaño grande pues cabe el contenido de una sarten mediana a grande

I like this product. Airtight seal, see-through, and great for use in microwave, freezer and dishwater.These two sizes are perfect for our left-over storage.Note. In my experience with this line of product: over time the storage of curry foods will colour the bowls and with long use, fissures will develop and you know their days are numbered
