- Is borosilicate glass better than regular glass for food storage?
- Yes for kitchen use. Borosilicate tolerates sudden temperature changes better than soda-lime glass, so it is less likely to crack going from fridge to oven or microwave. It is also lighter than many standard glass containers.
- Can these containers go in the oven and microwave?
- The glass bodies are made for oven and microwave use. The locking lids are not, so remove them before heating. Check the base for any maximum temperature marking before high-heat cooking.
- Are the lids leakproof?
- The locking lids with a silicone gasket are designed to seal for transport. Seal quality depends on the gasket sitting clean and flat, and on the clips being fully closed on all sides.
- What is the difference between the 10-, 12- and 17-piece sets?
- The sets differ in how many containers and lids are included and in the mix of sizes. A 17-piece set generally means more containers and a wider size range than a 10-piece set. Check the option label for the exact count and layout.
- Can the containers be stacked or frozen?
- The rectangular shape stacks well, and the glass is freezer-safe. Leave headroom for food to expand when freezing, and do not stack heavy items on glass straight from the freezer.
