Not worth it
If I could I would give it less than 1 star. The lid doesn't stay on when microwaving. It would be grat if the lid stayed on.

W container
Ok I have this product but its not in my reach at the moment so no picture. But I got these and they don't leak. My grandma puts her salsas on these containers and it keeps it fresh. The material is easy to clean. Just a tip- if you have it stained with like red sauce oil make sure to add a paper towel and soap inside and close the container and start shaking it. The sauce will stick on the towel and will remove any stains from the container. Trust.

Great
Those product is a strong material. The lid seals easily. They stack nicely together for storage. Mine do just fine in the dishwasher. They hide food odors when lid is on properly.

Melted brittle poorly made
This product is advertised as microwave safe and freezer safe, however the microwave irreversibly damages the container and the freezer make the plastic so brittle it breaks. Rubbermaid does not stand behind their product, offering no support for Canadian purchases. These became damaged shortly after purchasing. Do not use in the microwave as you will be ingesting the plastic material.

Hello. Thank you for sharing your experience with our TakeAlongs® containers. We’re sorry to hear about the damage you encountered. These containers are made of microwave‑safe materials intended for reheating, and freezer‑safe materials for everyday storage, so what you described is not the performance we want for our products. For clarity, reheating means short intervals, less than 30 seconds, with the container reaching a maximum short‑term temperature of 212°F, followed by a cool‑down period. Temperatures held at 212°F or higher are considered cooking, which is outside the intended use and can damage the container. Care should also be taken when handling hot contents after reheating. In the freezer, the materials are safe for use, but plastics naturally become less flexible when cold, which means they may break if dropped. Water also expands when frozen, so completely filling a container can cause it to expand or crack. We can also confirm that you previously contacted us. As mentioned at that time, we are very sorry to inform you that we are currently unable to ship to Canada, so we’re not able to process a replacement or send a shipment directly from our end. In this situation, the best next step is to reach out to the retailer where the product was purchased, as they will assist you with a return, exchange, or refund according to their policies. We appreciate your feedback and are committed to improving your experience with our products. If you have any more feedback, please reach out to us via our Contact Us form on our website. We’re available Mon.-Fri. 9am - 5pm Eastern Time. Thank you! Rubbermaid® Consumer Care

Very easy to stack one inside another.
This is a must-have in everybody's kitchen. I am still like a big kid grabbing a cup of these each time I go to my mom's as I know that she will fold them up for me.

not your old Rubbermaid
These are terrible. I've had lids break, leaking all over. Just had an EMPTY CONTAINER drop about 32" onto a vinyl floor and the bottom broke, leaving a hole.

Go-to containers
Perfect containers for your take along needs, we often use them for fruit and veggies or dry snacks like crackers or pretzels. The lids always fit and they’re easy to clean. I’ve froze bell peppers and onions in them before and they did very well!

Keeps food fresh
The plastic on these containers is sturdy. I like that its clear so I can see what's inside without opening it. They hold a good enough of food or snacks. They are relatively easy to travel with and can be taken for lunch if you have a wider lunch box. It keeps my food fresh for a while.

Easy to use, snug fitting lid, perfect for leftove
Perfect for storing and taking home leftovers after family meals. Lids are snug but easy to get on and off. The clear appearance makes it easy to see what's inside when searching the fridge for leftovers. My favorite food storage containers.

Potential Microplastics released in foods
It has been alleged that they leak microplastics into food. There is a lawsuit pending in California.

They work great! They hold a lot of mini muffins. They're easily stackable and don't warp or melt in the dishwasher! You can store them sealed or open. They're definitely sturdy, as well. I happened to drop one and it scratched, but the seal never broke!

Perfect for weekly meal prep—these sturdy, stackab
These Rubbermaid Take Alongs have been a lifesaver for weekly meal planning, especially when prepping meals for my mom. The deep square design and 5.2-cup size are perfect for full, balanced portions, making it easy to prepare an entire week at once and keep everything neatly organized in the fridge. The containers stack well, the lids snap on securely, and I never worry about leaks when transporting or storing meals. They’re lightweight but sturdy, easy to clean, and durable enough for everyday use. Having meals clearly portioned and ready to go has made caregiving so much simpler and less stressful. Practical, convenient, and thoughtfully designed—these are now a staple in my kitchen for meal prep and storage.
