Put a lid on it

I purchased this item because of the excellent price. I think they were $5 per pack. When I received them I realized why the low price. The lids do not fit properly.

Fails at most basic use: most lids don't fit.

The lids do not fit correctly. 3 sides fit tight; the moment you attempt to make it four, it will raise another corner. Wish I'd read reviews with 1* because that matches our experience. They weren't damaged in transit, but I wonder what temperature they are stored at because the tops and bottoms are inconsistent. They literally have one job, and they don't even cross that threshold.

Storage/meal prep containers

I did not like this purchase at all.. They are not the same size you previously had. They do not fit in our lunchboxes. Also they do not properly snap and close, they open up in the lunchbox and the meal spills. I would like to see the previous ones back in the store.

Packaged broken missing corners threw away

Half were packaged with broken and missing corners therefore the totally unusable. Just like the trash bags I bought from Sam's with half the box of bags unseamed and unusable. Unreliable products with no quality control.

Shipping broke items?

I normally pick them up in the store, but they were sold out, I ordered them online, and when I got them, half of the boxes were broken on the corner. Yeah, that sucks.

Don't Buy - %23heftydobetter

I was super excited to try these because I already own the 28oz Hefty containers and they are fantastic. The lids fit perfectly and I use them all the time. I bought the 38oz size specifically so I could pack two days' worth of leftovers or make a full salad. Unfortunately, the lids on the 38oz containers do not fit properly at all. You can usually snap down three corners, but the fourth corner will not seal—no matter which lid or container you try. We tested all the lids with all the containers thinking maybe it was a one-off defect, but none of them work correctly. Even worse, if you press down in the middle of the lid to try to get that last corner to seal, the lid just cracks. Now I'm stuck with 25 containers that essentially don't have functioning lids, and I can't return them. I'm extremely disappointed, especially since the smaller size works so well. I expected the same quality and usability, but these are basically unusable for transporting food. I would not recommend the 38oz version unless this issue is fixed.

The reviewers are correct; the lids do NOT fit!

I purchased four packages at two different times. None of the packages contained lids that fit the storage containers! I made the containers work by purchasing rubber bands from the dollar store and using the rubber bands in a criss-cross pattern to make the lids stay on the containers. This solution was the only way I could put my four packages of containers to good use. Who and where is the quality control manager for Hefty/Reynolds?
