Nice quality, but lids don't fit

I really like these containers but am really frustrated because the lids do not fit. There is always at least one corner or edge of the lids that won't snap in place. Carefully working my hands around the edges to snap the lid on leaves one spot always out of the track it should snap into, and pushing that in causes part of the lid on the opposite side to pop out. This makes the containers untrustworthy to store food, especially for my primary intention of bringing food to work. Without them sealing properly I worry that the lids could just pop all the way off in transport.

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.

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!!!

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!

Order at your own risk

Really, REALLY wished these would have worked out and that I would have paid more attention to the previous reviews! Bought them for Thanksgiving leftovers for folks to take things home. Stinking lids WILL NOT snap shut!!! Wish I would have checked them when I got them. Lesson learned!

Warning: Lids do not snap on! Will not close.

I bought these to have some decent take away bowls for guests and family to take home leftovers. I'm very disappointed! Although well made, the lids will not close on them.only 3 corners will go on. One is always off no matter how much brute force u use. So I'm basically using the bottoms and then putting Saran Wrap over the top to avoid spills. Not sure if I just got a bad batch , but I won't b buying again.

Rounded ends are not space saving.

I have used these for batch cooking freezer meals for a couple of years now. They were great and fit perfectly on my upright freezer shelves. However, now that they have been rounded off at the ends, I cannot get as many on the shelves that I did when they were squared off. They take up more needed space than they should since they cannot be butted up when placed end-to-end. I am hoping my older squared off ones last a lot longer so all available freezer space can be used before I have to use to many more of the new ones. I do love the fact that they are dishwasher safe.

Defective-Lids Not Made Correctly-Useless

These are defective as others reviewers have stated. The lids do not fit correctly with the container so it is impossible to even force the lid to stay on. Even with two people trying to force both sides on with two sets of hands it will NOT work. These are useless!

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.

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.
