Reality Check
Rubbermaid Brilliance Round and Rectangular Leak Proof Food Storage Containers, 12 Piece Set, is a set of plastic food containers designed for everyday storage needs, from leftovers to meal prepping and packing lunches. The set includes both round and rectangular containers in various sizes, all featuring leak-proof lids that snap securely and a body made of stain- and odor-resistant plastic. They’re also microwave, dishwasher, and freezer safe, aiming to make both food storage and cleaning straightforward.
In actual use, these containers stand out for their tight seals and ease of cleaning, making them practical for busy households or anyone who takes lunch on the go. However, the most common complaint is the potential for the containers or their lid gaskets to crack over time, especially with regular microwave or freezer use. For most people, this means you should handle them with care and avoid high-impact drops. If you’re rough on your kitchen gear or need containers for extremely tough conditions, you might experience a shorter lifespan from these compared to some heavy-duty alternatives.
Best For: People who pack lunches, prep meals ahead, or need to store leftovers neatly in the fridge
Not Recommended For: Users needing large storage sizes or individuals seeking containers that can withstand frequent drops and heavy wear
