2I have nothing good to say about these containers. They are the biggest frustration I’ve had all summer. In my experience, they do not seal at all let alone easily as advertised. They crack very easily. Watched a friend spill food on floor trying to close one. No good for the kitchen so I had decided to take them to school so each child could have his own container to hold math manipulatives; however, after hearing about how people have cut themselves on the sharp edges I won’t do that either. I guess they will go directly into the recycling bin. Just a total waste of money!

5Big waste of money! The lock tabs are extremely difficult to open. They break off very easily. The corner tabs break off, as well. They are definitely not leak proof. I love the concept, however the product is not what it is advertised to be. While they stack beautifully in my cupboards, and I like the assortment of sizes, I would suggest no one spend their hard-earned money on such an inferior product. Glad, Rubbermaid, even Ziploc and Reynolds containers are much more durable!

7I’ve never purchased a more inferior product. The concept is great but the quality couldn’t get much worse. The first container that I used broke immediately. The tab snapped off while closing the cover. I thought maybe that was just a bad container, welll it has happened to almost every container that I used since. This company should be banned from selling this product. It does not perform even close to the advertisement. Total GARBAGE!!

8I got these a gift. The idea is good but the quality is bad. When putting on the lids they snap and break.

9I found this product at CVS Pharmacy and they did not easily click together at all. Infact the one I tried would not click together at all. It’s a great idea but it does not work.

10I have used 3 of my containers only once & the tab lock broke off trying to get them latched. They are pretty expensive to be throw away containers if I only get to use them one time. I wish I had read these reviews before I bought them & they would still be on the store shelf instead of in my trash!!

11I am disappointed. The containers work OK but the tabs that you pay extra for do not work. Most of them have broken. I am trying to find a mailing address to send a notice to them or a phone number that is not automated so I can talk to a real person. Any ideas!

14After reading reviews on different websites, I would never have purchased this product, but my girlfriend ran across it on clearance at the Buckeye, Arizona Target store for $7. My interest was piqued, so I had to see them and try them out.
Having just opened the box this week and experimented with the product a little bit, I knew some of the pitfalls to look for, so was prepared for them: like the overall cheapness, the tabs not working properly, the apparent sharpness of the edges, and a few other things.
They are as cheap in quality as the reviews indicated, but I still like them. The tab issue, that they don’t always snap properly, is probably a tolerance in manufacturing issue. On the tv infomercial (which I barely saw tonight for the first time), they probably used a set with perfect proportions. Manufacturing always has error involved, a tolerance has to be included, and because of the rigidity of the plastic, any error is going to play havoc with the way the tabs connect, esp if you try to force them into place, or out of place once connected.
I build delicate mathematical models that fit together tip-to-tip, so am used to being precise and working with errors that are fractions of a millimeter in size. What I found with these tabs, is that a bit of patience goes a long way. If having attached the first tab, the second tab doesn’t want to connect, try gently deflecting the plastic, i.e. lift it up a bit or push it down a bit, as the case may be; and the same thing when you release the tabs: give them a little help, because the plastic, although cheap, does have some give to it, not much, but enough. If you’re rough on the plastic, it seems to be on the brittle side, and might break as people have indicated and really cut skin. If you like the concept and the product, a split second of effort can deal with the tab issue.
As far as the tabs coming off, well this may again largely be a tolerance issue dealing the depth of the splice in the plastic on different runs of the product. Some people are going to get sets where the splice is on the deeper end of the tolerance, so that tabs will be more prone to breaking off. Some people probably have sets where the tabs don’t ever or hardly break off, where the depth of the splice is at the lower end of the tolerance. The problem is exacerbated because the plastic used is so thin and brittle, which is its own issue. The brittleness of the plastic probably also varies with heat and other factors involved in the manufacturing process. I guess what I’m suggesting is that the materials used seem to be so cheap that provided everything is perfect, the product will work as described in the infomercial (although, I don’t see how their claims about microwaving and putting them in the dishwasher can be credible, unless they used a thicker guage and better quality plastic in their infomercial set; I will never put these in the dishwasher, microwave, or freezer, no matter what they say). But things are rarely if ever perfect–they can’t be and aren’t intended to be–so that materials used need to be of good enough quality to absorb/withstand error to allow a product to still be functional as advertised.
When I make something new, part of the process is always to try my best to destroy it and see how it takes the abuse, from every possible angle. That is how you find its limitations, be it factors of heat tolerance, or tensile strength, or the ability to deflect, or absorbency (permeability). I don’t buy As Seen on TV stuff, but from what I have read about these type of products, they seem assume/require perfection on the part of the user.
As a last comment for the disillusioned people who found the containers lacking and already threw away their margarine tubs: if you have an IKEA nearby, in their kitchen area, they have an inexpensive set of five stacking round bowls for $3. They used to be only $2, which was even better. The plastic is really good quality, nice and thick. They used to be clear with cerulean-blue-ish color lids. Now they are less flexible milky-white with a lighter, turquoise-blue-ish lid. They can be microwaved and put in the dishwasher, and the freezer no doubt, although I have rarely put them in the freezer. They are cheaper in price than the throwaway Glad containers and about half the quality of a good Tupperware bowl. For the money, they are very satisfying to use and just a dream. The bowls and lids don’t have much of a lip, so if you have trouble with your hands, they might be hard to manage. Aside from that, they are totally awesome, IMO.
Back to the WOW containers, I’m thrilled with them for the time being, and will work around the cheapness issue(s).

15Pros- the expandable size when I underestimate, but only for solid foods. ?Can freeze and microwave, but they are made in China, so I don’t trust them not to have toxic materials.
Cons- Most too large. Sharp edges which give me paper cuts every time I use them. Tabs are difficult to open and close until the edge breaks off, which happens after about 2 uses. Not leak proof.
Summary- I’m glad I didn’t throw out all my old takeout containers and other reusable containers. Glass containers are better when I want to microwave (but then I refrigerate only, not freeze).
Sorry I bought them. I have cuts all over my fingers.

16Terrible product. Very flimsy. Broke a container while hand washing/drying them. Clips snap off or don’t close.

17like the idea but the product is weak, it seems like every other container the tab breaks. the return is not worth paying s/h to only get a few bucks back. turns out it is an expensive dispossable container system.

21Wish I had read before I bought. Don’t snap together as shown. Need a hammer to use the “extra” snap. Take up a lot of space. They are not leak proof…boy are they not leak proof. Oh well. Have to kiss a lot of frogs to get a prince and by the way…ShamWow towels are not a prince either. They were not 15 years ago either.

22Just watched the review on youtube. THey were pretty gentle when it came to the leak resistant part of the test. And they did note that they were a bit tricky to snap together. Our old glad/tupper ware may take up a bit of space, but I’ve never had a leak/closing problem with it. I think I’ll pass.

23Mine do not snap like it is shown on TV either.
It was blood, sweat and tears putting the lids on.
If we send them back we have to pay S/H and 7.95 So we loose 10.00 or more. Gonna give them to someone I don’t like as a gift.

24We just received our WOW system, which
seems to be great, but were wondering where was our 2nd free order as was offered on TV?
Thank You,

25They do not fasten together as shown on the commercial (at all) and they are not leak proof – I wish I could find a way to return these but no one answers the phone
