I purchased this item as a “housewarming” present for one of my nieces for her new house. She had wanted these items specifically because they were exactly the kind of storage containers she was hoping to use in her new walk-in pantry. She was delighted to receive them and l was delighted to present them to her.

I bought them because they were on sale. I have mostly adult kids except for one, this is to say they are used gently or appropriately. Even then they broke so easily. I liked the look, but they are not durable at all. It's members mark...should have set my expectations lower. Smh

At first I was very happy with the containers- they looked great and sizes were varied enough for all my needs. After less than a month of use I have noticed that over half of the containers are starting to crack from the top- just the pressure from sealing the container is breaking them. These have been hand washed, never dropped or mishandled.

I am shocked at all the good reviews. I have never been hard on stuff, and certainly have not been hard on these. Mine cracked so easily, I lost 3 of them to breakage in first few months. Lids can come off when in seal position. I keep my powdered collagen supplement that I put in my coffee in one, so it gets used daily. 1st crack within a month, so you would think it would not crack again...wrong....3 cracks later in same container....in the garbage it went. Transferred over to a 2nd one.....again, crack within a month....and so on. I did not buy them to use just once a month, or every few months. Very poor quality. There are no kids in our household doing dishes, we are seniors and careful. No dishwasher here either. So durability is a zero! Pass these by, I cannot be the only one that has had this problem.

These containers are a scam. If you want your pantry to look nice while your food is quickly going stale...then these will do the trick. I bought multiple sets of these and have been using them for a year. The cereal, crackers, flour etc all go bad almost instantly.

I really like the kids. A handle comes up from one side, and you lift the lid off of the container with it. There is a rubber seal around the base of the lid that keeps your contents sealed air tight. One of the first things I read on the box was to hand wash only, so I did. They cleaned up nice and I was glad they made the rubber seal under the lid easy to remove for proper cleaning. It was also easy/simple to put back on. One set would be good for someone who doesn’t cook/bake often. However I would purchase two or more if you have a big pantry and use a lot of flour/sugar/pastas, etc. You really only get one good sized sugar container that I would equate the size for flour as well. Before I forget, do not ever lift these containers by the lid or it will pop off. Handle the container by the base when picking up or moving. These look nice filled and if you care for them properly should last a long time, they are of good quality & well made.

Only the smaller ones did not have a crack. Normally when I buy a sams club product, I know they are decent or good. Not like a dollar tree quality. I trusted that it was coming from Sams so I unpacked all of them, rinse dry and use them for teas, granola and other food that we had that needed a seal container. If I have not put the food inthe containers, I would have returned it. At that point I already did a lot of work. I was devastated. I understand this was only $30 but I expected for it to not crack after a single closing of the lids!

I bought a few months ago and have only positive comments regarding these wonderful storage containers! Lids stay on and are air-tight. I'm so pleased, I plan to purchase another set from my local Sam's! Although, I would appreciate other sizes/sets of containers being offered, as well. Possibly, a couple of larger sizes; plus, having the option of buying the original set as two separate sets, like offering the 4 larger, as a set, or the 4 smaller as a set, to accommodate more customization for each customer.

First, you can not store spaghetti in them because they are too short unless you only put a few pieces in it. Second, they are not air-tight, which is the whole reason for buying them. Third, of course, they are extremely breakable but I mean so extremely breakable!! Thankfully, I saved my box and packaging so I returned mine and did get my money back.

I recently purchased 3 sets of these, one in store and had 2 shipped. When washing them to prepare them to fill with my kitchen pantry items I noticed water buildup under the rubber gasket that was impossible to completely remove. This is a potential mold hazard and health issue.
