Had the opposite experience you did. They were god awful - lids don't fit after one cycle through the dishwasherVariability wrote: ↑ I really hope they have those Flatstack container people back. Really love the design and the bright colours for food prep.
Had the coloured glass containers but they take up so much space.
The lid not closing issue....take a razor blade or exacto etc, and trim a small amount of plastic from the 'hook' part of the lid that catches under the glass. When I say a small amount I mean like 1-2 mm. Once done you won't have this issue any longer.
Which parts of the lid disintegrates?sonick wrote: ↑ +1 on the dissatisfaction from the other replies regarding the poor quality lids. After a few years of use, pretty much every lid has started to disintegrate or if not totally unusable.
Very wasteful since the glass containers now are barely useful without the lid.
Would not recommend.
Same here, the entire lid is full of cracks and the plastic around hook is totally broken. I'm now using 1 or 2 elastic to hold the lids in place....sonick wrote: ↑ +1 on the dissatisfaction from the other replies regarding the poor quality lids.

Agree with the herculean strength to close comment.
On mine the outer edges of the chanel that hold the rubber gasket starts cracking and eventually falls off. As well as the plastic around the hinges of the snap on flaps causing them to no longer be attached. The rubber gasket also weakens and become brittle, resulting in it being torn easily if you take it out and wash it regularly.

Lids are more of a rubbery material, and they've been holding up in the dishwasher quite well.
