Better than other brands I’ve tried
I previously used some ello brand containers which didn’t use borosilicate glass but instead had silicone wraps to try and protect the bottoms. Well one of those didn’t last 10 months before the top edge chipped from a short drop and another was destroyed when I was doing meal prep after putting in some hot food from what I assume was too rapid a temperature change.I’ve had this container 15 months now and it’s still going strong. I’ve been using it daily for my meal prep and it takes it all. The glass is strong enough it hasn’t cracked with some minor drops even on hard surfaces. I regularly subject it to either an oven, an air-fryer, or the microwave and it’s withstood them all, even straight from the fridge for reheating.The edges clean much easier than the ello containers I previously used, I used to get little splashes of the contents somehow under the rims during cooking or eating and I’d have to spend a lot of time and effort scrubbing at it, the edges here are cleaner and a simple brush or sponge takes anything that manages to get under the rim on the outside off easily.One tricky thing about these are the lids. Every brand uses plastic, it’s unfortunate but I suppose there is no way to get glass to work and seal right. Never put the lid in any heat source, I wouldn’t even use the microwave as I damaged a pyrex lid one time doing that and the heat plus pressure changes inside the vessel will weaken and warp the lids with repeat use, lids are for storage only or covering after reheating IMO. Instead in the microwave I’d say cover with paper towels or a plate or plastic wrap. In the oven and air-fryer I cover with aluminum foil and that works great.I was leery at first about the plastic closing mechanisms on the lid, worried they’d break with time and stress unlike the ello container’s which had a hinged design where the plastic didn’t really bend but so far the lid seems to hold up fine as I don’t subject it to heat beyond heated up food in a warm/hot container (no direct heat as mentioned as I never put it in the microwave).I’ll continue to prefer buying Oxo kitchen products because they seem better designed than the competition. They cost more up-front but the savings from long-term use more than make up for it.

Best Airtight Food or Storage Container
Tested this from freezer to oven, freezer to microwave and fridge leftovers and dishwasher safe too. Excellent container made for every day use. It is glass so it will break if you do not handle it properly. You can remove the seal from the lid cover and wash it separately and when sealed, it really secures your food so you do not have to worry of food been spoiled. One thing to remember, do not seal and close the lid when you are warming up food in the microwave. Use a paper towel to cover instead or a microwave food cover. The instructions are simple to understand.

Excellent, high quality glass storage container
Bought this as a replacement, when we had a mishap when we moved, and the old one was dropped on the concrete garage floor. This is an excellent quality glass storage container. The lid seals very securely, and the size is perfect for not only food storage, but for cooking a meatloaf! Love all the OXO Good Grips storage containers!

OXO is a reliable brand and the 8qt glass container is as well. Perfect size for meal prep or regular food storage. Works great in the freezer. Dishwasher safe. All around wonderful to have for a long time.

Freezer to Oven Leak-Proof Food Storage
Very handy food storage container that can be used in the oven. Perfect for left overs that need to be reheated.

Smaller than 64oz
Overall, a great product. I purchased this to make yogurt in my sous vide, hoping for the possibility to make two quarts at a time. I tested the size with a 1qt measuring cup, and it overflowed with water remaining on the second quart (I don’t recall exactly how much…it made quite a water mess on the counter.) It still works great for 1 quart batches, and perhaps for 1.5qt batches, but just be aware it’s not a true 64oz. The 64oz size was one of the key reasons I chose this, but there really weren’t good alternatives anyway since this fits perfectly, outside dimensions, in my rectangular sous vide unit.I ordered 2, and then ordered a 3rd in spite of the size disappointment, since I’ll just rotate smaller batches more often.
