This is one of those rare products that is very cheap and yet well-made. I like to make fresh juice for drinking later. Since juice doesn't stay fresh long, you want to seal it really well, preferably in a canning jar with an airtight lid. Since canning jars are rather heavy to carry around, I tried these. Heck, for pocket change, I'll try anything.

They're perfect! While the little lid looks flimsy, it actually provides such a solid seal that I can bounce it around in my purse and it does not leak. What's more, my homemade juice tastes like new when I crack it open, better than a glass jar. They are made from durable #5 plastic, which is one of the re-usable types least likely to leach bad stuff into your beverage. After I drink my juice, I seal them back up so they don't dry up and that makes it a breeze to clean it when I get home by just running a quick sponge over it. I've used them for juice, salad dressing, yogurt, sauces... nothing has stained the plastic yet. I haven't tried them in a microwave or dishwasher; I don't know if I would because I'd hate for the lid to warp.

5.0 out of 5 stars Plastic Jars, April 19, 2008

I love these jars for homemade baby food. I make big batches of food, pour it into these jars and pop em in the freezer. They stack and lock onto each other. I love the lids, they twist on. I wish they had them in 4 oz size. I just leave em in the fridge to defrost and use them 2 days in a row for feedings.

3.0 out of 5 stars NOT an 8 oz container, March 13, 2011

These may be 8 oz containers, but not when you put the lid on it. It holds about 6-1/2 oz., to allow for expansion in freezing. A little annoying, when I bought these to freeze one cup of chicken or vegetable broth, since I make my own, to add to casseroles or for cooking rice. Also the fact that they crack very easily as another reviewer commented. They do stack well enough, but that does not compensate for the other issues. Look elsewhere if you want an accurate 1 cup container.
