Product Description

Size: 12-c.

Among today's hot collectibles, vintage fridge sets cost a small fortune. Martha Stewart Magazine even ran a feature on them, so you know they're a "good thing." We like them because they not only have nostalgic appeal, but also go from fridge to microwave and don't take on odors or stains from food.

3.0 out of 5 stars I wanted to love this, December 12, 2007

This review is from: Anchor Hocking Glass Refrigerator Storage Container 2 Cup Size (Kitchen)

I've used the pyrex glass containers with plastic lids for over 10 years, and although they've held up well, I wanted a no-plastic solution for refrigerator food storage.

I ordered this from Amazon, despite another review noting that the lids don't fit properly. Yup, they don't. I ordered 2 different sizes, and neither lid fits right, leaving my leftovers to dry out in the fridge. I could put up with that, but the darned things are also so heavy, and I'm not old and weak, but I'm getting tired of the weight of these things, especially when filled with food. The glass is so thick...

On the positive side - they are better than plastic (any glass or ceramic container is), they look retro-cool, and they stack well in the fridge.

But for me, I'm going back to using my pyrex with the plastic lids (I wash the lids by hand to prevent the plastic from breaking down).

5.0 out of 5 stars Old fashioned elegance, February 28, 2007

I remember my grandmother using these, so there is a lot of nostalgia informing my review; but these are so easy to use, so handy to see through, and look SO much more classy in my fridge than the stained-red tupperware, that I use them all the time.

1.0 out of 5 stars Lids do not fit., November 25, 2007

By

This review is from: Anchor Hocking Glass Refrigerator Storage Container 2 Cup Size (Kitchen)

I bought a 12 cup, two 8 cup, and 4 two cup Anchor Hocking glass storage containers. They would be terrific if the lids/containers were level. Instead, the lids teeter-totter on top of the containers, on some as much as 1/4". Some are better than others, but none of them fit right.

I will not purchase another Anchor Hocking product without being able to examine them in person first.
