OXO 11174000 Glass Rectangle Food Storage Container, 8 Cup, Clear

What sold me on this was very positive online reviewsANDthe fact that it can be used in freezer AND fridge AND microwave AND conventional oven.(Note: directions warn NOT to put frozen dish into preheated oven, and of course the plastic lid should not be used in a conventional oven.)Easy to clean? Check. I love the way the plastic "gasket" is easy to remove and to wash.Stain resistant? The glass is. The lid...not so much, but also no big deal since the lid was not transparent to begin with. I can see what's inside when looking at it from the side (i.e. when it's in the fridge), and I expect the glass container will remain crystal clear as long as it is not severely abused.Water-tight? Check. Online reviews give it top ratings in this department. That big, beefy gasket gives you confidence that it won't leak.So, what's not to like?#1 - It's HOT when removing it from a microwave. Unlike the typical microwave container which has little plastic handles on the sides that do not get hot, this has no handles and so you have to handle it carefully with oven mitts when removing it from the microwave.#2 - Just a quibble, but when it's hot (the microwave has just finished heating), the lid does NOT want to snap on to the glass container. Let it cool for about 30 seconds [edit: 45 seconds] (with the lid off the container) and the lid will once again snap on OK. Of course, snapping on the lid after microwaving is nice because you're less likely to spill the contents while moving the container around.UPDATE APR 2022: broke on the first drop, 31 inch drop. (Floor: concrete covered with plastic tile.) Not sure if that's worth subtracting a star or not, given all of the other great features. It's been my most frequently-used microwaving dish. Still cleaned easily. Gasket still excellent. Plastic lid and gasket not prone to staining as are typical plastic containers. (I'm not saying that they WON'T stain, I'm saying that they haven't noticeably stained despite lots and lots of use.)I WILL be buying another.

Wanted something a bit smarter than the normal plastic ones and these certainly match that requirement

I love my OXO products I have bought all my kitchen tools from them so I knew I wouldn’t be disappointed with this, it was used for my son steamed vegetables it was perfect for an air tight container.

These glass food containers with strong clip lids are great. They are well made and pretty indestructible as long as you don’t drop it onto a hard floor obviously. I got mine because I take food to work and then heat it in the container in the microwave. Plastic boxes don’t fair well doing this ... glass on the other hand, perfect!

excellent sturdy product
