Do not recommend. Lids do not fit

Purchased these because we needed them to meal prep. Had a flooding in my home so we were meal prepping at my family's home. Little did we know that the lids were not going to fit! We have an hour drive home, so we had to stack them in boxes and hope they didn't leak all over my car. It made a mess. I'm truly disappointed in this product. I can't wrap my head around how Sam's continues to sell them given all the bad reviews these have.

Lids do not fit

Brand new and None of the Lids fit - product not like the others I've ordered before! I already opened and threw away the wrapping - I used to love these to send food home with people but no more. These are different sizes and no hefty on the lid like before. I bought mine when on sale.

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.

Waste of Money

None of the lids would fit. Trying to send left over Thanksgiving dinner home with family and these wouldn't work. At first we thought only 1 was defective, but no one could get any of them to close securely. A complete waste of money - threw them in the garbage.

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.

Lids don't fit

The lids are too large and do not fit. This year, sending leftovers home with family for Thanksgiving entailed using packing tape to keep the lids on.... As you can see in the image, with 3 corners snug, the 4th corner (top right) refuses to go into place. The lid is too large. If you force it into place, another corner comes out of place. I don't know who let these past the quality control checks... absolutely useless as is, would not buy again.

Lids don't fit

Idk how these are so highly rated when there are so many people that have fitment issues. I came here to see if anyone had the same problem because so far over half of the lids don't fit. Disappointed, would have paid more for a good product if I knew this one sucked

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.
