The ice packs are nice but the lids are not leak proof so only dry goods can be packed.

I assumed that because these looked like similar plastic containers (the kind that are strong enough to reuse, but cheap enough to throw away), they'd be of roughly equal quality. They're not. They're much flimsier despite costing more. They dent and deform easily.

And as others have mentioned, it's not leakproof, so this is not the way to transport gazpacho or a fruit cocktail with juice. There's a reason the company's photos show only solid foods in these containers!

As the name suggests, these are "chill" containers. I wouldn't use these like my other containers, to put warm leftovers in them or heat them up later. The plastic gets even softer and flimsier when it's warm - even when I'm just washing by hand! (It's supposed to be dishwasher and microwave safe, but I'm not going to chance it.)

The freezer insert is great, which is lucky because the thin plastic of the container is not a particularly good insulator for your food.

I was going to give only one star, but decided to give extra credit because this was at least a good idea which hopefully someone else will duplicate in a better product. Fit 'n' Fresh would have been smarter to work with an existing container manufacturer like Gladware to create freezer inserts that work with the perfectly good semi-disposable containers that we may already have in our cabinets.

I bought these containers with some hesitation after reading some of the reviews. I am glad I did buy them, they come in very handy when I am on the road or even when I am in the mood to munch on something at the office and I am not reaching for that candy.
My only complaint is that when measuring something out, such as cherry's, it doesn't leave much room for the ice pack. Other than that, I do love these, and I am glad I bought them.

They would've gotten 5 stars if the tubs could stack better together (they don't). Other than that these things are great for picknicks, work, babies etc

I just bought these for $8.99 at Target. Have yet to use them yet. Didn't realize they weren't leak-proof when i bought them.

Nice-sized containers for veggies and fruit. They are not straight-lined rectangles; the sides curve in slightly. They stack well. A sandwich (not too thick) fits if you cut it in half and stack one half on the other, but not much if any room left for the cold pack. Leak resistant, but not leak proof. The cold packs don't break the lids if you slide them in and out. The little tabs are not meant to bend.
