Are these containers microwave safe?

The listing only states freezer safety. It does not say they are microwave safe, so check the base stamp before heating food in them.

How much food does one container hold?

Each container holds 4 cups, enough for a sandwich, a lunch portion or a few cups of leftovers.

Do the lids seal tightly?

The lids snap on and have corner flip tabs for opening. They are not described as leakproof, so keep them upright when carrying liquids.

Can I stack them in the freezer?

Yes. The rectangular, modular design is made to stack, which helps keep the freezer and pantry organized.

Is this set a good alternative to glass containers?

It is lighter and won't shatter, and the clear body lets you see contents. Glass resists stains and odors better and can go in the oven.

Our take on the Mainstays Semi Durable Food Storage Container, Rectangle, 4 Cup

These are four rectangular 4-cup food storage containers with clear bodies and snap-on lids with corner flip tabs. The 4-cup size suits sandwiches, leftovers, meal prep and packed lunches, and the modular shape stacks neatly in the fridge or pantry. They are freezer safe, so you can prep ahead and store portions for later. Against glass containers they are lighter and less breakable, but plastic can stain and hold odors from tomato or curry, and it is not meant for oven use.
