The container is made of good, sturdy, clear plastic, it handles microwaving and dishwashing just fine, and I like the steam vent for cooking. But the hinges on the lid break too easily! Two of my lids are useless after only a couple months of use.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are a must have in my kitchen, I used to to store left overs, take to parties, drop off food to a friend.
They are sturdy and long lasting, I can see inside of them, label them stack in the fridge. I can never have to many.
They are also easy to store, they stack inside of each other , and lids can lay next to them.
I would be at a loss with out them.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I don't like the new air release button on top. I had the older style 5.3 Cups model # 0421-C. Everyone wanted to know where I got them & wanted them. They had a great seal, went through the dishwasher. microwave without warping, were durable & didn't leak. I lost all but three out of about 15 I had from truck driving. After truck driving I cooked for friends & learned a lessonabout loaning out the food containers with food in them. Everyone seems to love the old style container. The air release appears to be the weakest point & everyone I know has had bad expierences with it and avoids it from prior experience rather than by brand. Why risk it... Not everyone is the same, could you sell the type with the air release on top & without? I need to replace mine.

Hello, we previously had two lines of ultra seal. One with the vent and one without. The Ultra Latch line you are referring to was discontinued in January of 2016. We appreciate your feedback and will pass it on to our team. If you have any other questions please contact us directly at marketing@sterilite.com.

I've had my Sterilite containers for 3 years and am ready to buy more. This products is studier than most, can be carried to work in my bag full of other things and doesn't leak like other brands. My only disappointment is that the pop up steam release is fragile and has broken on several dishes.

Recieved this product before the holidays last year and opted to use it to transport my holiday goodies. Works slick and easy. Kept the desserts fresh and mess free. I enjoyed the ease of this option so much a couple of family members bought the same item as well.

Not a good product

I hand washed and dried this container and lid. It will not stay closed. The small latches work but the long latches don’t stay closed. Which would make it not air tight or prevent leaks. I won’t buy another one of these.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
