Do they leak? I currently use containers from Ikea and those leak terribly (of course, they are super cheap!).

They didn't leak for the short period I used them. The white painted label area chipd off real bad the first time I hand washed them. I was worried I was going to get it in the food. I wouldn't buy again for that reason. They do stack nice though.

I never had an issue with them leaking and I used them everyday for six months. The only problem would be if they are overly full then frozen, the top won't stay on then. Just don't fill to the very top.

Mine do not leak - I have one for olive oil and one for vinegar. They do not come with caps though.

I have found coconut oil leaks in any container. These leak less than most. I would recommend insulating the shipping container.

The lids are the same in term of leakage. I use saran wrap before I put the lids on. That works for me.

I've been using these for a couple of years now. I've found that it doesn't leak if the lid is on tight, but will seep after an extended period on its side. So for example, if I find one under the dining room chair several hours after lunch, I will usually find a small amount of water under it. That said, I do send these to school with my little ones.

These containers will leak if you put steaming hot foods or liquids in it with the lid . I let it cool down and reheat in microwave and saves on leaking. Hope this helps

I've had no leaks. I carry one in my bag ever morning and no leaks. They are super sturdy lids, they snap closed really tightly. Does not come with a straw. Highly recommend them.

No, mine didn't leak. I did end up buying compostable bags, though, because the inside got smelly and gross.

I have not had them leak as of yet. Just make sure you get the plastic roller insert in tightly.

I've been using mine for quite sometime with no leaks at all. I love this set. They are holding up very well, even with dishwasher cleaning. Would definitely buy again.

I've never had one leak, and I've been using these for years. They do have a gasket or seal inside the lid that may come out in the dishwasher. I've only had that happen once. I use these because I have arthritis and they are easy to open and close...without leaking.

I have not had any problems with them yet. I even put coconut oil in one of them with a lid and keep it in my swim bag. It has not leaked yet.

The round ones have a tight lid and so they don't leak, but the rectangular ones don't close that tight and so they leak. On the first set I got, the small rectangular lid was way to loose and they sent me a new set. The lid on that one fitted a bit better but it is still not hermetic and leak. I had to go and test them after your question so now both you and me know! :)

Yes they are leak proof. I bought mine in the Container store and it is labeled leakproof on their shelf. The store sells the 2 oz size for $1.95. I use it to carry my oily lite salad dressing to the restaurant with me and it has never leaked.

I am afraid that it will, most likely, leak. They don't travel well with liquid in them. In fact, when I do put them in a lunch box/kit, I'll put the cube in a plastic, zip-lock bag. I found more tightly sealed containers at the grocery store.

I've had these containers for about three years and I don't think I've ever had one of them leak. My family uses them everyday and we always wash them in the dishwasher including the lids, often on heated sanitizing cycles and I've not experienced any changes in the way the lids fit, unlike some other containers we've tried before that warp easily. These don't -- the lids continue to seal really well even after years of use. I've never had a lid come off accidentally and we've toted them just about everywhere.

I put them in my kids lunches and they have not leaked. I also put them in a zip lock bag just in case - I have 1 in kindergarten, so who knows what it goes through in the classroom. Just make sure you leave about 1/2 to 1 inch in the top because liquids expand when they freeze.
