MY LID CRACKED TOO!
These are brand new containers, this is the first time I'm using them. On two of them (so far), the tab broke off when I was trying to open the container. I thought the first one was a fluke, then it happened again on another container, and THEN I come on here and see that the same thing happened to someone else.

The lid cracked.
Just stocked up on these as I am cooking and freezing lots of food. Bought these because it said freezer- and microwave-safe. Took one out of the freezer after one week and the corner broke off and now it won't seal properly and I can't use it again. Of course I can't return any of the containers since I unpacked them and washed them (they tell you to do that) and didn't keep receipts. Not planning on buying any more Rubbermaid containers.

Cover Breaks Too Easy
I bought these containers for my salads at work each day and not even a week in the corner has broken off and now they leak. Wish they made a studier product, even be willing to pay more for it.

Where's the blue?
I have a set of blue "sandich-sized" squares and I love them. Mine have never broken and I've used them to freeze and to microwave as well as washed them in the dishwasher. I have a spare set tucked away because I never expected these to last and last. I have a brand I've used for years (L&L) and these are just a little deeper and much less expensive. I'm single, so it's handy to split up and freeze individual servings with these: casseroles, ice cream, bread/English muffins, frozen waffles, etc. I'd buy more of this size if I could get them in blue again. My experience in all regards has been positive thus far.

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.
