Tall 7-1/2-Cup Round Food Container

Lock&Lock's Classic plastic food-storage containers, a useful addition to any busy household, come in handy for storing fresh and frozen foods--from healthy snacks like cut-up fruits and vegetables to leftovers or dinners for the week. These versatile storage containers can also be used to keep pasta, rice, flour, sugar, crackers, cookies, and other cupboard or pantry items fresh for longer, securely stored, and neatly organized. Moreover, they can be utilized to transport lunches to and from work or school, or even for storing smaller kitchen, office, or craft items.

Offering a wide range of shapes and sizes, Lock&Lock's full line of Classic food-storage containers features a securely locking lid for airtight storage and peace of mind. The clear body of the containers makes identifying contents easy, without the need for labels. Lock&Lock's Classic food-storage containers boast an innovative four-sided locking system that creates an airtight and watertight seal, ensuring food stays fresh longer and preventing any messy leaks or spills.

The four-sided locking system promotes an airtight seal due to equal pressure on all four sides, combined with the hollow-center silicon sealing ring that allows for a tight lock (the silicone sealing ring can be removed for cleaning if necessary). Crafted from high-quality BPA-free plastic, Lock&Lock's Classic food-storage containers not only offer an airtight and watertight seal but are also durably built for unbreakable, long-lasting use and hygienic, food-safe storage.

These containers can withstand temperatures ranging from -4 degrees F to 210 degrees F, making them suitable for use in the freezer, microwave* (reheating only), and dishwasher (top-rack). The base and lid should NOT be used in the oven, under browning elements, or on the stove top. For compact storage, the containers can be nested together, and with the lid in place, they can be stacked one on top of the other, particularly useful where space is limited.

*Unlock all four latches and loosen lid before use in microwave.

Lock&Lock Classic lids feature four side flaps or "wings" that are hinged and slightly flared at the end for an easy grip when opening. These lids come with holes (rectangular-shaped openings) that line up with matching knobs on the base of the containers, making it easy to latch the lid to the base and lock it into place. This patented blocking hole system maintains the integrity of the lid and promotes an easy, tightly locked container.

In addition to the blocking hole system, the Classic food-storage containers feature a blue hollow-center silicon ring in the lid that helps create an airtight, leak-proof seal. Compared to generic silicon with a solid center, Lock&Lock's hollow-center silicon seal delivers superior compression and restoration power, ensuring a more effective airtight seal.

Test results show that Lock&Lock airtight containers allow in 3,000 - 6,000 times less moisture than other containers, making them far more airtight. They have also passed the KEMTI bending test, where the container and wing were bent 3,000,000 times 80 degrees left to right, indicating they could be used 10 times a day for 821 years (semi-permanently). Furthermore, Lock&Lock Classic food-storage containers have passed the strict hygiene and safety tests of the U.S. FDA and German SGS, making them hygienic and food-safe.
