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.

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.

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?

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!!!

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!

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.

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.

Not a good buy!

These are HORRIBLE! The lids do not fit at all. If you have arthritis like me, you will think you are having a bad day with your hands. Turns out no one can snap them shut without drama. I have always used the 28 oz Hefty containers and they ARE great so I thought why not. :)
