We tested plastic and glass containers from Oxo, Rubbermaid, Pyrex, Joseph Joseph, and more to find the best food storage containers of the year.

Finding the best food storage containers may seem simple, but it’s actually no easy task. Brands make all sorts of dubious promises. They’ll tell you the containers are airtight and leakproof, that they’re made of only the finest BPA-free plastic and high-quality borosilicate glass, and that they’re oven-safe, microwave-safe, dishwasher-safe, freezer-safe...pretty much safe from any element you can imagine.

But, instead of snaps on the side, these Rubbermaid containers are fitted with flexible silicone lids that you press onto the container. We were skeptical that this wouldn’t provide an effective spill-proof seal. But we were pleasantly surprised to find that in our drop test, the lids stayed on well enough to avoid major splatters, even when we dropped the container on its side.
