Temptations Storage sets vs. Lock and Lock

I love Lock and Lock and have purchased many sets of it for myself and members of our family. However, I have Temptations bakeware, serving pieces and dinnerware so when they came out with plastic storage sets to match, we purchased some of those pieces. I found Temptations storage pieces to be very inferior to Lock and Lock. I have difficulty getting the pieces to close. Yesterday a piece fell out of my refrigerator and the contents spilled everywhere. Now only 3 of the 4 tabs will close on that piece. I noticed Temptations now has an "As Is" Temptations storage set on sale. I wonder if they are removing the storage sets. Anyone else have similar problems?

Score one for Chris Prine, none for Tara McConnell.

I did not purchase because even at the TSV price Temptations was more expensive than Lock and Lock.

You are 100% correct on that!{#emotions_dlg.thumbup} That's one of the reasons I didn't purchase them either. The other reason was because during each presentation, I kept looking @ the smaller round containers. The tabs just didn't seem to be sturdy at all. Yes, I would have liked to had matching FL containers to go w/my bakeware, but after reading some of the reviews a week or so later, I was so glad I didn't get them. I've never had a problem w/Lock & Lock, so I will definitely be sticking w/them.

Look for Snapware at Walmart, BBB, online. It's made in the USA!! I found the deviled egg carrier at BBB and it was less expensive than the one made in China, then use a coupon. Many styles to chose from, some have the locking tabs closure.

L&L is so much better than the others ones I have tried, I don't bother with others now.

I have not bought any Temptations other than a few pieces for DD and since she seldom uses it, it's been okay. With all the quality problems I have read about , I have no interest in buying any more if it.

Yes--I didn't purchase either. I'm satisfied with Lock and Lock.

I never considered it myself. While I love my temptations, I'm not giving up my L&L they don't need to match.
