This 36-piece set from Freshware provides 18 containers and 18 lids, making it a functional choice for those who want consistent meal portioning at an accessible price. The containers are made of homopolymer polypropylene, which offers good resistance to food oils. Their uniform design supports excellent nesting, making them easy to store in tight kitchen spaces.
The lids use a single-lip friction fit, which is designed for standard upright storage in a refrigerator. With a wall thickness of approximately 0.6mm, these units are lightweight and easy to handle. They are categorized for semi-disposable use, providing a helpful layer of convenience for taking meals to work or events where the container might not be returned.
- Standardized sizing helps maintain a consistent meal prep routine.
- Nesting capability reduces the space needed in kitchen cabinets.
- BPA-free construction is safe for standard food storage needs.
Practical reality shows that the plastic can become more brittle if handled roughly when frozen. Hand-washing or using lower-temperature dishwasher cycles will help prolong the life of the lid tabs and maintain the clarity of the plastic. These containers are a practical and efficient option for managing a busy weekly cooking schedule.
For a set that features 3 compartments for more complex meal separation, you might prefer the 15-pack 2-compartment set.
