Nice just right size container.
I have been using these containers for quite a while and I really like them. I read my local flyer for a food store and they are advertised as disposable. Are these meant to be used once and tossed?? I didn't think so. I even put them in my dishwasher and they are very durable. I think the market ad is misleading. Am I right?

New lid redesign weak and unsecure
I use A LOT of Rubbermaid containers. I have found them durable, of excellent design (lids interchangeable with certain sets), and economically priced, HOWEVER, the recent redesign of the TakeAlongs Squares' lids do not close securely when compared to my previously purchased TakeAlong Squares' lids.
The lids close very weakly and I would be concerned with these lids failing easily when used in lunch containers/bags.
This is really too bad as these used to be the best lunch container available.
Please reconsider the 'new' design and make them more like the previous generations more securely closing design.
Thank you.

Great set
I was so happy with my first purchase, I purchased 3 more sets. The lids seal well, are easy on the hands (flexible), and the bowls are nice and clear so you can see the contents. I am putting one in the freezer for the first time today, so I don't have any experience with how the bowls or lids hold up afterwards. I don't expect any problems though. I'm happy with my purchases; great for the leftovers. And the variety of sizes is helpful as well. Thanks, Rubbermaid.

lid snapped on first use
The deep squares are a good size overall--not too big and not too small--making them versatile for my needs, and the plastic of the bowl itself is very sturdy. The VERY FIRST TIME I removed the lid from one of the bowls, however, it snapped off at the corner with the tab. It hadn't been in the freezer, dishwasher or otherwise exposed to unusual temperatures. I realize these are economically priced, but I expect better quality from a brand like Rubbermaid, regardless of the price I am paying.

More fragile than a liberal arts student
One fell out of my freezer and the edge shattered when it hit the ground. Then when I tried taking the lid off one today to microwave my lunch, the corner broke clean off. Not impressed, Rubbermaid.

New lids thin and brittle
Just bought two two-pack Takealongs square sandwich containers - 2.9 cup 832D 4. Unlike my older Takealongs square container lids which have held up well, the new ones broke at the tab right away when I tried to "burp" the continer. When I compared the new lids with the older lids, the quality difference was obvious. Did they change suppliers; change formula; or just cheapen the product to increase margins. Either way, I'm taking the new containers back to the store (Dollar General) for a refund. Guess I'll be buying a different brand unless/until Rubbermaid corrects the problem.

Never Ever Buy These!!!!
Worst product ever!!!!! I've had them 2 months and 2 have cracked. Like the letter before, if they are not meant to last, then state it on the packaging or say " buyer beware". Very disappointed. I didn't want to give it a star, but you have to.
