I was going to buy Pyrex, but then I found out they switched from using borosilicate glass to tempered soda-lime glass in their USA products. That soda-lime glass is not as tolerant of fast temperature changes, and although it is rare, it can occasionally EXPLODE if you place a hot container on a cool surface. But these here are true borosilicate glass containers and I expect them to be safer when I go from oven to freezer to microwave. The lids are a very solid tight fit, which is great for me if I use the container to take lunch to work in my backpack (it's the perfect size for that!). However, the lids are SO tight that unless you have two hands of normal adult strength, you might have some trouble snapping them into place. Therefore I would not recommend these for elderly or disabled persons.

UPDATED REVIEW on July 18, 2018
My original review is below for your reference.
Like I said in my original review, I don't usually write reviews, however, I was so impressed by the company's resolution that I felt strongly enough to update.

The company reached out to me after seeing my negative review and sent me an entire new set of containers with lids that were perfect. The containers are perfect in every way and were on my doorstep within 2 days. I'm super happy! Thank you, HomeNative!

ORIGINAL REVIEW:
I don't usually write reviews but I feel compelled to write this! The good first: The actual glass containers are perfect! Exactly what I was looking for and expected = work lunch containers.

The bad: Upon opening the box, 2 of the lids had locking sides that had already broken off. The third broke off the first time I snapped it shut and the remaining 2 broke the first week upon opening the container. I threw away all the packing material thinking they might be fine even though they were missing only one locking side. Now, they all leak so I can't bring them to work which was my entire intent! I don't want the hassle of returning them because I don't have packing material and I don't want the returned containers to arrive shattered. Now I'm back to square one with finding glass containers for work lunches!

I tried to write a review the first week but the Amazon website prevented me from doing so stating that this item was receiving unusual review activity. I felt so strongly about it that I kept trying. Frustrating!

Major things about this food container:
1. The container is deep enough to fit in a k-cup inside, so you won't have much problem fitting in a full chicken thigh or drumsticks in there (unlike most containers I found)
2. The glass container is smaller than I expected it to be base on the pictures posted (see photos for reference), but it can sure fit a nice full meal (but too small for what i intended to use it for).
3. The containers stack up nicely and they're pretty stable so no problem storing them.
4. The rubber is removable for easy cleaning. Just do note that the rubber is only glued or something, so exercise caution when washing.
5. One major thing I don't like tho is that the plastic lock doesn't feel sturdy.

I guess overall, the glass part is amazing but the plastic covers are not as much... though, considering the price, with proper care and careful use, this is a good buy ;)

People have to know that they have paid around $20 for this product. For the $20, that I paid, I got an absolute steal.

Ive been working on meal prepping and I havent been liking plastic containers as, well, its bad for your body. I was in the market for glass containers and came across this one.

I ordered this, got it, and when i went to go wash them, i noticed one fo the lids were cracked. I sent an email to the seller to see if they can ship me a new lid and less than 12 hours, they responded saying that i would get a replacement. 2 days later, I get a brand new set. Thats what I call service!

As for the containers, I have not had any issues. Just make sure you know its glass, so dont bang them around the kitchen otherwise, it would definitely start cracking. Its easy to clean, not so easy to store because you cant really stack them. Its microwaveable (not the lid).

Overall, for what I spent, I absolutely love it. Would recommend if youre on a budget looking for glass containers.

I love these containers! Perfect for meal prepping! I like how the tops have vents! I've been using these for a few months now and no complaints! Probably going to order some more. They're good quality!

These are spectacular!!! They are airtight so the week's food I do for lunches and such stay fresh for the whole week. They are strong and very durable. The four part latching system insures your food is completely sealed. The seal ring is removable for easy cleaning. The nice pop-top vent allows food to cool if packed in hot . Once cool, close pop-top and stick in the fridge. Husband is rough on things including his lunch box and so far these are holding up so nice!! Many others I have tried have been broken in a matter of days. I love these !!!

I am so pleased with these glass containers! A few years ago I bought a similar, yet smaller, pampered chef container for over $10. This is such a great deal for 5. They are made very similarly to pampered chef, with the waterproof seal, thick tempered glass, sturdy lid with four sides to seal. I like that these lids have a little air flap, which is helpful when trying to set the seal. I did fill one with water, seal it, and shake to see if it would leak. It didn't leak! I did notice these containers were hard to seal at first. I really had to put some muscle into it! But after a few uses, it's becoming easier. Really happy, and wish I'd ordered them sooner. Pics for comparison.

These are a great plastic alternative. The glass is very sturdy - it feels thicker than pyrex and the lid is very firm. No liquid spills and the seal is perfect. Great size for lunch/leftovers

we contacted the manufacturer, they confirmed that they don't sell to Australia at the moment. we showed them picture of the packaging, they confirmed that we have received counterfeit products
