Rubbermaid 3.57-Cup (2) and 5.26-Cup EasyStore Rectangle Containers, 3 Pack, Food Storage Containers, Food Storage Containers with Lids

When it came to choosing between the new Rubbermaid Brilliance and the Rubbermaid EasyStore, I combed through many reviews. I decided on EasyStore because they seemed more durable and less susceptible to cracks. I also have a few Brilliance containers left from an older set; and while I do love the crystal clear appeal, once the newness wore off and time passed, the spider-like hairline cracks eventually appeared in the lower half of my 5-cup containers. Needless to say, I chose the durability and performance of the EasyStore. I also like and appreciate the narrow rectangular shape of these for storing in my fridge. The containers are translucent, so at least I can still see the contents even if they're not crystal clear. I like that the seal on the top is nice and secure. But, one gripe I have about both the EasyStore and Brilliance is how the tops retain water inside the crevices even after letting them dry in the dish drying rack overnight. The following morning, I still have to shake the tops to get rid of any water left behind and then let them sit in the drying rack a little longer to finish drying. Maybe it's nit-picking, but maybe not. In the end, I still have to have them to store my leftovers; and these are the best durable, budget-friendly food storage containers I could find. I would gladly buy more.

These were a little smaller than I expected but are awesome. The seal is really good. Will definitely test your arm strength. Rubbermaid doesn't disappoint.
