Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I ordered the 8 ounce glass containers for my kids lunch boxes, which came as a set of two. Unlike the previous reviewer, I detected no defects in the glass or in the snaps.
Before I placed them in my kids lunch boxes, I first tested them by placing water in them, turning them upside down and to my pleasant surprise, NO leaks.
What I wasn't happy about and why I give it only 3 stars is in the design of the lid, specifically the gasket. In washing the lid, I like to remove the gasket and clean separately. Reason being on account of the potential of bits of food/liquid to lodge between it and the plastic lid. In order to take the gasket out, requires a butter knife as the lip of the lid is only 5mm wide and too deep to get your fingers into.
After removing the gasket, I decided to try placing the lid back onto the container and guess what, it will not fit. So, if you ruin or lose the gasket-you may as well toss the lid out.
For me, this is more hassle than I think it's worth. However, I do think the glass is quality (like the glass found in Pyrex)and the lids too if you don't mind the fuss or concerned about ruining/losing the gasket. For those interested in the 8 ounce containers and curious about dimensions (approximates), they are as follows:
*Glass thickness: 5mm
*Depth: 1 3/8"
*Length: (interior): 4 5/16"
*Width (interior): 2 7/8"
*Height w/ lid on: 1 7/8"
Made in China.
