I use a lot of food storage containers. Whether I’m marinating meat, storing leftovers, or packing lunch, they are among the most important things in my kitchen. Because I rely on them so often, I’m picky, or at least I was until I received the Pyrex Simply Store Glass Food Storage Containers as a wedding present seven years ago.
I’ve been using the same set ever since, and they are as good as new. Not only are they some of the most versatile dishes I own, but they are easy to care for, nearly impossible to break (and I’ve tried), and only $3 apiece.

In the seven years since I’ve been using the containers, the glass has never absorbed an odor, gotten a stain, had a scratch, or experienced a single crack. Whether I have salmon in a soy sauce-based marinade or am storing leftover spaghetti overnight, the Pyrex dishes remain as good as once they were washed.
The bowls are also nearly indestructible. While they, like any dish, can break, I’ve dropped a bowl (or four) on faux hardwoods multiple times and never had one shatter. I’ve also frozen soups and stews in them with no issues, and they thawed on the countertop seamlessly. Plus, because they’re microwave safe, I can easily heat up leftovers straight out of the fridge.
The set comes with multiple sizes—all with airtight lights. There are five bowls ranging in capacity from 1 cup to 4 cups and two rectangular containers that can hold up to 4 cups and 6 cups. The lids are sturdy and secure enough to stack in the fridge without worrying about the plastic cracking, and they stay tight when placed in a lunchbox. The lids are also easy to remove despite the tight seal.
I’m far from the only person who loves the food storage set, though. Over 2,300 shoppers gave it a five-star rating. Multiple shoppers say they have gotten rid of their plastic containers in favor of Pyrex’s glass, and they love how the material can go from the refrigerator right to the microwave. People also praised their chip-resistant edges, easy clean-up, and convenient sizes.
Whether you want to switch to glass food storage or you’re looking for a versatile set of containers, this Pyrex Simply Store set is so good, I’ve used it for seven years, and with some luck, I hope to use it for seven more. Keep scrolling to see even more Pyrex containers we love at Walmart.
