The best ever.

I absolutely LOVE these containers. They don't let anything leak and they are much easier to see what's in them. I can get more in my freezers because I can stack them. Another great things is they don't let other food smells get in to change the flavor of what's in the container. I would HIGHLY recommend these containers to eveyone.

Leak-proof!

I already had several, larger-size containers from the Brilliance line, and got these small ones for my husband to pack salad dressing in to take to work. We've used several cheaper small containers in the past, and the dressings tended to leak in his lunchbox. These are leak-proof even when they end up on their side or upside down. I also love that they are resistant to stains and odors after being washed, and they're the perfect size to hold small amounts of leftover sauces, chopped garlic, etc.

counter top space saver

These little guys came last week and I really looked forward to receiving them. I had round containers (different shapes/sizes) that took up a lot of space on my counter top (I use several spices every day and it's a pain to "fish" them out of my cabinet. These little guys are the answer - they hold sufficient amounts so I only need to refill them MAYBE once a month.

Awesome product

These are the best little containers. They are truly 100% leak proof. I use them for salad dressing when we go out to lunch or dinner and they have never leaked. I just bought some more for my daughter and future daughter-in-law.

Airtight Containers

The containers which I purchased about 3 weeks ago appear to be airtight which helps to maintain the freshness of the food. Salads are fresher and don't wilt as quickly as other containers as well.

Super

These containers are very easy to handle; you can store many products in them. You can put them in the refrigerator or on the stove. They are made of a very good material because they won't break if dropped. The locks on the containers...For me they are very good,muy útiles y recomendables.

Impossible to open!

I bought a large (and costly) set of Rubbermaid Brilliance storage containers to replace various containers--some that were not BPA-free, and some (made by OXO) that cracked and were therefore unusable. The Rubbermaid containers are impossible to open, no matter how much I tug at them and no matter at which spots, at the corners or at the sides. It is UNCONSCIONABLE for Rubbermaid to manufacture and sell such poor products. The phone rep I just spoke with provide no recourse--no replacement lids, no advice on how to fix my current lids/containers. He stupidly suggested I wait tor the containers to "cool down" after I took them out of my refrigerator! (Important: I have never put them in the microwave or oven!) Disgusting representation of your company-- and a reflection of the disgusting quality of your inappropriately named "Brilliance" products.

reply from Customer Care

Hello, we are very sorry to hear about your experience with the Brilliance™ Pantry Food Storage Container. We understand how frustrating it is to purchase a container, only to find that the lids are difficult or impossible to open. As a first troubleshooting step, please make sure all four lid latches are fully released before attempting to lift the lid. You can also try gently lifting the lid from one corner while ensuring the opposite latches are completely disengaged. If the container was recently refrigerated, allowing it to return to room temperature may also help equalize any pressure difference between the container and the surrounding environment. Please avoid using excessive force, sharp objects, or utensils to pry the lid open, as this could damage the container or lid. If the lid remains difficult to remove after the latches are released and the container has returned to room temperature, the lid or container may require further evaluation. We also apologize for the experience you had with our Customer Care team. The guidance you received did not address your concerns, and we understand your frustration, particularly since you have not used the containers in a microwave or oven. We would like the opportunity to help. Please contact Rubbermaid Customer Care. Your feedback regarding both the product and your customer service experience is important to us and will be shared with the appropriate teams. If you need any further assistance, please reach out to us via our Contact Us form on the website https://www.rubbermaid.com/support/contact-us, and we will be happy to assist further. Thank you!

The Hidden Cost of Brilliance

The seal on these products are regrettably the first thing to fail. I recently spoke with an agent from Rubbermaid and was told the lids with these failing seals on such an expensive item cannot be purchased separately, especially the glass version. Replacing the entire container to get a new lid becomes rather expensive for a known failure.

Hello, Thank you for your message regarding the Rubbermaid Brilliance™ Medium Food Storage Containers. We can confirm that, in most cases, lids and sealing components are not sold separately for this product line, which means replacement typically involves purchasing a full container set.

Glass Is the safest

I love the Rubbermaid glass food containers but only the 1.3 size. I specifically bought the galas rather than plastic which I will not buy. The glass are safe, durable and a perfect size. Unfortunately they aren’t available unless you buy and large pack which are made up of several large sizes. It’s a waste of money is ll you want is the1.3 size.
