Perfect sturdy containers

I hate to review because then others will catch on! I love these containers and have bought about 17 to 20 sets of these the last few years. They are the perfect size for left overs and for elderly meals. I also am the “container provider” for all of our holiday and large family gatherings. The reason for so many purchases. I buy 6 pks at a time because they are so handy. Plus…I can’t believe how cheap they are! I’m always afraid they will go up in price.

Disappointed when these arrived...

I was a little upset with these. I had them delivered and there were at least 6 containers that were broken. I was not near a Sam's store to return them and was very upset that was a quarter of them I had to throw away. If they carry them in the store I would probably buy them again .I sent a message in another review and no response,

Awesome containers!

Love these containers! Super durable and microwave AND dishwasher safe makes them even more amazing. Having the ability to reuse these as many times as I need is a blessing. High heat resistant so you can wash em on the bottom rack of your dishwasher is awesome too!

Never seal right

I bought 2 packages of these based on how well the smaller ones work. That was a HUGE MISTAKE not a single one of these in either package would completely seal one corner always pops back up. I'll stick to the smaller ones from hete on out. And to quote one of my favorite podcasts If i could give it zero stars I WOULD!!!

useless containers

I bought these so i could give a friend some of our Thanksgiving meal. i should have read the reviews first. the lids do not fit the container. three sides will fit and the fourth will not budge. the lids are way too big for the bottom container. so disappointing because we had to scramble to find other containers after we had 5 trays full of food. I'm going to return these.

I purchased these so my friends and family could take food home after Thanksgiving dinner and they were horrible! the lids and container are not the same size. they are slightly off from one another and none of the container would close. I get these or the smaller containers every year for this very purpose and this is the first time this has happened. worst part is i bought 3 packs of them. i do not recommend these!

Lids do not seal

I bought these for people to take home leftovers on Thanksgiving. Not one of the lids shut, you could get three corners to seal and when you try to snap the last corner another corner popped off. Thank goodness, I had packing tape so we could seal the containers. Don't waste your money. I had bought the smaller hefty containers before %26 they were great.

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?

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.

Very disappointed. Not like the smaller ones.

Bought these because I love the 28 oz containers. But 1) The lids are not microwave safe, and 2) The lids don't close properly. Three corners fit well, but the fourth corner (doesn't matter which) will not close. If I manage to force it to “click” into place, it pops open within seconds. Highly disappointed.
