Lock & Lock K39993

Hi everyone! I wondered if anyone has this lock & lock item. Its the 6 pc. multi-colored bowl set ($17.78). I've read the reviews and some are not that great. I've never had a problem w/any of my lock & lock, but I don't want to get this set if these bowls are a dud. Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

bought these for two different young ladies who have babies; both of them love them for babyfood they make at home, putting goldfish crackers in for the diaperbag, and to use as feeding bowls as well. I use them for a lot of things; very handy. None of us have had any problems with the tops or the bowls.

I ordered these on Sunday and they arrived yesterday. I saved three bowls to use as Christmas gifts along with bowls from other sets. I tend to make up my own sets for gift giving. Immediately, I washed my three and put them away. I love the size and the lids are a little domed. Each holds three cups and is perfect for leftovers. Now I need to get a few more sets so I have "stocking" stuffers.

I have this set, and many other sets. I use them, but several came flying out of the freezer, at different times, and a latch broke off, but the lids are still usable. For storing, I prefer the square containers as they don't take up so much room as the round, except for the mini round containers in multi colors, love these. I freeze left over stock, pesto, great for kids lunch bags, and on and on.

I got these a couple of years ago. I gave the blue, green, and yellow ones to a friend who enjoys them. I still use the red, purple, and peach ones all the time. I've never had a problem with them.

I own them, and enjoy them, and use them.........No microwave use.......BUT........ I have found that the lids do not fit as snug as prior L&L products that I own, and I do prefer the tab/lock system, as opposed the the non tab............

Just received this set on Monday but haven't actually stored anything yet. The latches are very easy to open so I suspect some latches may open if something brushes up against it in the fridge or freezer. I shared the bowls with my mom and sister according to our kitchen colors. I kept the yellow and orange. Also received the 12 cup colored set and they are very cheerful and cute. Glad I bought them.

If u use them in the microwave, turn the lid upside down, otherwise u may not be able to open it. That happened to me.

6- 5.5 cup bowls. I like the mini ones for portion control.
