My daughter started kindergarten this year and some days she takes her lunch. I had been using plastic zip-top bags to pack her sandwich and snacks, but food was easly crushed & spilled. So when I was sent these containers in order to review them, I tested them out in her lunch box. They're great for keeping her sandwich intact as well as keeping all her snacks (like popcorn, crackers & cheese, etc.) neat and tidy inside the containers. The seal is extremely strong, which I found out when my daughter tossed her juice pouch back in the container instead of the trash (gotta love 5-year-olds!). Not a drop of liquid was inside her lunch box. I can definitely see using these for leftovers, fridge storage, or to pack snacks for the zoo, amusement park, etc. Because they're clear, there's no guessing as to what's inside, either - very handy!

I was so excited to purchase a couple of sets of these: Rubbermaid Brilliance Food Storage Container Set, 14-piece, Clear : (#7U27) They were lovely AND could be used in microwave (bonus for leftovers for lunch), super stackable, easy to use, etc etc. Even my kids and husband commented on them. However, after less than 8 months of use 3 of the pieces cracked in multiple places. They have been used in the microwave, but never put in the freezer and only in a dishwasher 2-3 times. I so disappointed! I never pay big money for storage containers...just wait to find them at rummage sales...and the one time I do. Blech.

At first I really liked this product and started to replace all my other containers with various sizes of this one so therefore the age and usage of them all varies. I've been using the product in general for a little less than a year I suppose and started to notice cracks appearing in different ones. I've already thrown away a couple of the smaller ones thinking it was something I did wrong but now noticing something different. Yesterday I put a perfectly clear 3.2 cup container in the dishwasher and it came out this morning cracked and looking like a spider web. I went back to read about the care recommendations again and there was nothing specific about dishwashers. very disappointed. Jury still out whether I will buy again.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had many food storage containers. These are definitely some good ones. They are a great size if you are looking for a lunch sized container that you want to store your food in but also go straight into the microwave with. It is BPA free so nothing's leaching out into your food. There's also a glass version if you're still worried about that. The top seems to seal tightly. You can also stack these with the same type of container, bonus!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the best food storage set that I've ever owned! All of Rubbermaid's sets are stackable which is great, but what sets this set apart is the lids. The lids aren't the typical lids that inevitably crack. These lids are not only air tight but they allow for a vent option when you pop up the handles. This means when you are microwaving spaghetti leftovers your microwave doesn't need to be wiped down too. The 14 piece set is a true 14 piece set with 14 containers and 14 lids, not 7 of each. I'm so thankful to Rubbermaid for accurately listing the container count and not playing silly marketing games! The containers come in a variety of sizes great for either pantry storage or leftovers. With such a wide assortment of container sizes, it's great that all the lids are in only 2 sizes. No more hunting for a specific lid size! Lastly the containers and lids are a strong durable plastic, but keeps that glass-like easy see through look. They are dishwasher safe and they don't hold on to stains as far as I can tell. Even stubborn tomato sauce stains come clean in the dishwasher. This set should become a staple for all households and will be my new go-to house warming gift.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Brilliance plastic is a hard crystal clear plastic that looks like glass but isn’t heavy or breaks easily like glass. The lids have rubber seals for airtight and leak proof. It easily snaps on and off and has holes for venting. They stack neatly for easy storage. It is BPA free, microwave safe, freezer safe, & dishwasher safe on top rack. This is by far the best to-go container. I have to buy more because everyone prefers it over the regular containers. FYI, 3.2 cup size is what we use to pack lunch. Roomy enough if you eat less or just right if you eat a little more.

(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) The Rubbermaid® BRILLIANCE™ Food Storage Container is a fantastic container for all your leftovers or for your lunch. It stores easily in the refrigerator or in a cupboard. It locks tightly and keeps food nice and fresh. If you accidentally drop the container, the contents won't spill out as this is quite a sturdy product. I recommend this product for anyone and everyone.

(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) I love this container. It is a perfect size for leftovers, or a sandwich for lunch..so many things. I love that it is clear so my kids can see whats in it and not just ignore it. The vents for microwaving are genius and also work to close the container with a perfect air tight seal. They are also easy for younger kids to open and close. It held up well in the microwave and dishwasher. No staining or warping. Would love to get this product in bigger and smaller sizes so i can get rid of all the other crapppy storage containers i have. Would definitely recommend this product to everyone.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Rubbermaid Brilliance Pantry Airtight food storage container set is very chic looking and durable for any kitchen. I love how easy it is to use and I can see what I put in the container. Very easy to clean up dry.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I like the tall thin size of these so more item can be stored next to these containers rather than on top of them. They are made of a nice, thick plastic so I don’t see them cracking easily. The lid is also easy to seal and provides a good seal so that odors do not come from it or get in.
