Hi Tam!

I have those bowls. Well, half the set. I gave away the blue, green, and yellow ones. I kept the red, peach, and purple ones. I've had them for quite a few years. So far, so good but I probably don't use them as much as many of mine.

That's interesting because the tab that is broken is from one of my newer sets. As a matter of fact the other 3 tabs look like they are fixing to break also. It was a TSV from Nov or Dec. I have a lot of pieces that are much older with no problems.

One thing that i know will cause a broken tab. If you drop a loaded heavy container onto a hard floor where it lands on a tab it will snap, particularly if the container is coming out of the freezer. Old or new, doesnt matter.

Yup! Fell out of freezer and one tab broke off and the bottom split the whole length of one corner.

The only time I have found that they crack or break is when I drop them out of the freezer. Overall, I have had very few issues at all with my lock & lock. Love it!

......You look like I need a drink.....

The same thing happens to me but not so often. It would be nice to get a replacement. Let me know if you got one for your broken lid. Thanks!

I have only had this problem after years of use or they have been in the freezer. Just the other day one of my small one cup containers fell out of the freezer and one corner of the container cracked off. I do not think they hold up well when frozen. Speaking of these containers, anyone reading this considering the set of Kinetics that is the TS on other channel. I really like the largest container to use for non kitchen organization.
