![Freshware Meal Prep Containers [15 Pack] 1 Compartment Food Storage Containers with Lids, Bento Box, BPA Free, Stackable, Mic](https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/81dE91pfYbL._AC_UL160_SR160,160_.jpg)
After researching and reading the reviews of several brands of similar containers available on Amazon, these seemed to offer the best value in quality, size, and quantity. I initially purchased two sets of the single compartment containers, and not only did they live up to the many great reviews, they far exceeded my expectations. So much so, that I purchased three additional sets of the 2 compartment containers. I had an upcoming surgery scheduled with aftercare that required 6-8 weeks of extremely limited mobility, and I purchased my first 2 sets to make my own homemade "Frozen TV Dinners" to have during my recovery. My five sets we're purchased in 3 separate orders and all 3 shipments arrived well packaged with all containers intact. With 9+ months of continued use, of the 50 containers purchased, I've only had to discard two lids due to breakage (see below). When used for freezing, they do a terrific job of keeping food fresh and without freezer burn for right at 3 months. After 3 months, I have noticed ice particles start forming. They work perfectly going from freezer to microwave. However, while the lids are frozen they are a bit brittle and two cracked as I tried to vent a corner before reheating in the microwave. What has worked best for me is to microwave on high for 2 minutes and then vent the lid's corner for the remaining 2-4 minutes of cooking. After I attach the lid, to get a truly leak-proof seal, I've found it best to use my thumb and forefinger to pinch around all four of the lid's sides. After doing this, I've found even broth-based soups will not leak out even if the container remains upside down. These containers are perfect for packing a week's worth of lunches at once and for storing leftovers. Instead of ziploc baggies or foil, I use them to store opened packages of blocks of cheese, bags of frozen vegetables, sliced fruit, etc. They're sturdy, dishwasher safe, leak proof, don't get stained from red sauces, BPA free and are more economical than the reusable containers I've purchased in the past at supermarkets (ie, Ziploc plastic containers). If buying multiple sizes, I have this to offer: While the one & two compartment lids stack perfectly on top of each other and appear to be identical, they are NOT interchangeable, and I found this to be quite aggravating. To combat this, I used a Sharpie to mark each lid with a small "1" or a "2" to distinguish whether it was for the single or double compartment container. I can fully recommend these.
**Update** June 9, 2019
I purchased 2 sets of these containers -one & two comprtments- about 18 months ago and have used them often. I use them to freeze meals which I then microwave and clean them in a dishwasher. I also use them to store opened blocks of cheese, cut-up veggies, etc. After 18+ months of frequent use, it's time for me to re-order them. I certainly wasn't expecting to get the use out of them that I did!! Given this, I can recommend themeven more now than I did in my initial review!

I Prefer the Single Compartment Container
Disclaimer: I think meal prepping is a huge pain in the butt, and ultimately, in my dream life, I'd prefer to go out to lunch rather than eat at my desk with perfectly measured proportions while obtaining the fitness results I want. However, my reality that on every other occasion when I've tried to increase my physical fitness without making the appropriate changes to my eating habits, it fails miserably. I also got tired of putting so much work in at the gym and then self-sabotaging my "gainz" (had to throw in a little bro science) by being lazy about my diet.So, this year I committed to meal prep on Sunday nights, and in conjunction with my workout schedule. 5 weeks in, I am already positive changes in my body composition.For me, I found that part of getting the meal prep right, in addition to finding tasty receipes that fit my macros and that I actually look forward to eating, included finding the right meal prep containers. I've tried other meal prep containers, and inevitably, they all cracked after being put in the freezer, and their re-usability was questionable at best. There is nothing more deflating about meal prep when your meal container falls apart during transport, spills or leaks or otherwise doesn't make it without melting in the microwave.I ordered two sets of these meal containers - a 7 pack of single compartment containers and a 7 pack of the double compartment containers (separate review) to try what I liked best. For me, these single compartment containers suit my meal prep style. I liked the dimensions: Specs: 28 ounces Dimensions: 8.10" (L) x 5.45" (W) x 1.5" (H) (no lid) - add 0.75" to the height to include the lid.I also liked the fact that the single compartments have a more shallow profile for easier stacking in the freezer and fridge than the double compartment container. Although, ultimately, I think container design is simply really personal preference based on what you like to cook and how you like to trasnport. If I wanted to keep sauces separate or had thoughts on separating food groups, the bento style box could be more advantageous.My dislikes for the single compartment are few: I don't like the fact that the lids between the two single and double containers aren't interchangeable, and I don't like that it is hard for me to tell when the lid is sealedI've washed these, put them through the microwave and freezed a few times. Good results so far, and they certainly make meal prep less of something I dread doing.
