![[10-Pack] Glass Meal Prep Containers with Lids-MCIRCO Food Storage Containers with Snap Locking Lids, Airtight Lunch Containe](https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/71VKuXwIKOL._AC_UL160_SR160,160_.jpg)
These containers are pretty sturdy and air tight. And although I haven’t been using them long, I think they will hold up nicely.
I’m a crafter and I wanted to try to dry flowers using silica crystals. I was able to use these containers to do so. To complete this process, the containers were put through quite the test. Here’s what I found:
- They worked well in the microwave.
- The finish stood strong even from the scratching of the crystals and my fork scrapping around for flower petals.
- They stayed solid and sturdy through the multiple bumps and bangs it endured as I took it in and out of the microwave, from the counter, pouring one container into another; etc.
- The tops fit snug and felt solid and stayed that way through the repeated clipping and unclipping.
- It withstood me continuously heating it up and cooling it down over and over. ** Please note, I did not attach the labels before doing these things. I do not know if that would impact results.
- Also, if you’re looking for something airtight... these should do the trick. When drying the flowers with the silica crystals and not using the microwave method, the container was sealed tight allowing me to dry flowers over a few day process. For those of you that do not craft or know what I am talking about, for this process to work, the flowers and silica crystals need to be in an air tight container because the silica crystals absorb moister. If the flowers are left in there over a few day, the crystals will gently remove the water and preserve the flowers. However, if the container is not sealed air tight, the silica crystals will absorb the moisture in the air before there is time to fully dehydrate the flower.
Overall, I think this is a great product for a good price. I believe the containers will last but more than that, they’ll be able to do so at a level that allows me to use them as crafting tools and not just storage containers that look pretty... meaning, they are functional and not just esthetically pleasing.
I’m excited to get them setup, stacked neatly in my new craft workspace shelves. It will be nice to have everything securely stored, in air tight containers that stack and fit snug next to each other as well as labeled and easily visible. I would buy this again and I would recommend it again.
NEGATIVES
The only two things that I would maybe complain about... if I had to complain or list something I would change about the product is:
1) The containers were slightly smaller than I was expecting. However, it is exactly as described. And I got over it quickly.
2) I wish it came with just one large but flat container. Were you can spread out or lay larger items flat. I know that somewhat defeats the purpose of these containers neatly stacking and being easily visible and accessible.
