Decor Tellfresh Container Oblong 1 L

used well

Broke the first time it was used

Corner of the lid snapped right off. Definitely disappointed in these

Creative uses

I I have loved these containers for a long time we have struggled with leftover storage in the fridge so I'm using my 16 in clear bins and putting five of The Oblong units straight up and down they haven't leaked yet I have trained my nine-year-old son to immediately put these empty and clean back into their slot in the den

Decor Tellfresh containers are THE BEST in my experience

I've purchased and used these in all sizes - great for fridge and freezer storage, and whatever else you need to have contained. For example, my plastic bowl and casserole lids fit in a Tellfresh Pastry Storer, so no more free-range lid roundups. The pastry container is of course also perfect for transporting donuts, scones and other fresh baked goods. My most recent purchase of the 17 oz Oblong container 3-packs (a nice freezer size if you've bought a big bag of garlic, so you can peel and wrap cloves for the freezer) presented a problem - so if like me, you found that some of the lids on these multi-packs seem too tight to fit; warm those lids up in a pan of faucet-tap hot water (not boiling) for a few minutes. That stubborn lid corner that did not seem to fit ... MoreI've purchased and used these in all sizes - great for fridge and freezer storage, and whatever else you need to have contained.

That stubborn lid corner that did not seem to fit will finally cooperatively snap shut. Issue resolved. Also, when removing from freezer, let the container warm up a bit, or run.cool room temp water over it before opening. Noted that a few reviews mention breaking the lids, When prudently used and cared for, these can last a long time. Love 'em!

Great containers

I'm a chef and recommend these they are great for many uses.

I have bought these storage containers for years!

These last a long time, come in various sizes, and initially were made in Australia which intrigued me. I was delighted to find them again in the Tucson Container Store.

Impossible for arthritic hands

The lids fit so tightly on these containers that I ended up throwing them in the recycling bin. I have arthritis and could not get the lids on at all. My husband could but even he had problems getting them to fit. They are not worth the trouble.

Just what I was looking for

I do very thorough meal prep every week and have struggled to find a good enough system to stay organized. These boxes turned out to be the exactly what I was looking for:* Tidy and stackable* Small enough to fit well in most lunch boxes* Sturdy and easy to clean. Do not stain, leak or hold odor.* Dishwasher safeThe labels were an added bonus. I immediately went back the next day to buy 5 more packs and have recommended them to all of my clients.

NOT airtight

I like these, but they are absolutely not airtight. I ended up with a solid brick of brown sugar.

They work well for my pet food

I bought nine of these for freezing individual daily portions of home made food for my dog who has a dietary condition. They have worked so well that I'm ordering more so I can prepare and freeze 21 portions at a time. These take the place of freezer bags, which won't last as long, don't stack as easily in the freezer, and are harder to wash for reuse.
