These are amazing. I have thrown out my other containers. As a widow living alone, it saves me from throwing out a lot of food. For instance, they keep crackers, cookies and tortilla chips fresh in my pantry for at least 2 months, sometimes 3. They also keep shredded cheese fresh in my refrigerator for at least a month to 6 weeks. I also put sliced cheese in the container still in its original packaging. The only thing that didn't work for me was fresh green salad. It might be the moisture, but it turned bad overnight. The important thing is to transfer the food from the original packaging to the lock & locks within the first 24 hours.
I purchased this as a gift for my daughter and her husband. They both loved the sizes, the good quality, & how they lock ensuring no leaking or spillage if dropped. Highly recommend!

I especially like this set of Lock & Lock (Large 14-Piece Assorted) because of the assortment of sizes. I prefer the secure locking lids over other containers. I use them for storing fresh food and leftovers. I actually have more free space in my refrigerator because you can stack them. I no longer have spills from accidents by knocking over a bowl covered with plastic wrap! The seals on the lids are excellent. I have taken a leftover in a Lock & Lock, placed it right into the microwave (removing the lid) and although I was concerned the heat could damage the plastic I found that it did not. The plastic was very warm but did not deform or warp. Right now I have Lock & Lock containers storing raw nuts, fresh spinach, cauliflower(florets), sauerkraut, deli meats and cheese in my refrigerator. My refrigerator stays fresher using Lock & Lock with odorous vegetables. I have Lock & Lock in my freezer for my homemade tomato sauce and soups. (There are no red orange tomato stains left on the plastic after washing with dish soap.) I have been using Lock & Lock for two years now.
I couldn't be happier. The lids for the two various smaller sizes are the same size, so that simplifies things. Its nice having the various sizes, and the seal is great. I've been dehydrating foods, and I feel very secure using these containers to store the food after being dehydrated.
