Lock and Lock: Anyone else interested?

QueenofQuestions — Thu, 19 Jan 2017 03:49:53 GMT

Would anyone else like a Nesting Taco/Tortilla/Burrito ( 6-8-10 inch) Round set?
Or...a Pizza 10/12/16 inch Nesting set?

These are the only two sets I do not have

Not interested at all. After reading about plastic leaching into our food during storage or being microwaved, I've changed over to all glass....mostly Pyrex at BB&B or Target.

I don't microwave my L&L because I have found that it can too easily warp. But there is no fear of any toxins. L&L is made from polypropylene -- which does not contain BPA. It is totally safe.

I ordered the last TSV (2) so I'm set on storage until the zombie apocalypse

I like the L & L but for one issue; that airtight seal can make it a b**ch to get the lid off sometimes!

I have more than enough Lock& Lock. I also never microwave in the containers. I use my 30 year old pyrex for that.

Don't lock the lid while the food is still hot.

I would, except they don't exist

I agree. I do not microwave in them for same reason.

I just would like to have the size and low height to store the flat tortillas and leftover pizza. And have the sets nest because I have no room left to store any more! Lol.

Rubbermaid has a bpa free line that you can freeze, nuke and wash in the top shelf of a dish washer.They're stackable too.

I found the locking lids don't hold up so I don't buy them anymore.

Re: Lock and Lock: Anyone else interested?

To keep the lid from sticking....if I put something warm in a container, I push down all the lid locks except one....leaving that one unsealed makes it open easily when I take it from the refrigerator. Once it's cool it's not an issue anymore.

I have alot of locknlock and over the years some tops have broken.The company has sent me several tops.They are so good to deal with.I doubt any other company that sells containers similiar to these,would replace tops that broke.I think they are the best!

I would love to see lock & lock come out with so measuring cups and even possibly measuring spoons. I am not exactly sure what lock & lock is made of but the material washes beautifully! I used to have cupboards FULL of Tupperware until I was introduced to my first lock & lock! No staining, never greasy or sticky feeling, and does not hold the odor. Measuring cups would be amazing made from this same material! I have introduced my Grandma, my Mother-in-law, my Aunts and many of my friends to lock & lock and they all have converted. One of the individuals use to be a Tupperware dealer and has converted. The price is a good value, the product is amazing and when you combine QVC customer service with Lock & Lock customer service, it can't be beating! Does anyone know how I can get in contact with Chris, from Lock & Lock?

How do you get the chemical smell out of the containers?

@mosky

It's surprising, in a good way, what a reputable company will do to maintain their good name. Years ago I bought a car part, I don't remember it was an alternator or starter, but long story short it was defective. I had no problem getting my money back on the defective part but I called the company and explained that I was also going to have to pay for labor again! They sent me a refund for the original labor!

Thank you ladies for the hot tip! Pun intended LOL
