Versatile and durable
I can see myriad of reviews emerging here, probably 3-5 stars, and they'd all be valid to whomever reviews them. For me, despite some small gripes and question marks, I don't see any glaring issues that would downgrade the overall experience.Yes, the lids aren't extremely tight fitting, but they are functional. Yes, the container is made of light, thinner metal, questioning its durability and microwave compatibility, but I like that the thin metal keeps the container lighter, especially when packing heavy food inside. The metal container is strong and accommodating enough, and the fact that it's not plastic is a plus. Also, while it may not be glass or plastic, it can still go in the oven/toaster oven/air fryer, which plastic (and some glass containers) cannot.One thing to perhaps research on your own, is if the claims in the product page are correct. According to the photos, it says it can go in the microwave. I researched this a little and apparently some metal containers are specifically designed for this heating method. To air on the side of caution, I think I will withhold them from the microwave, however, I recommend doing your own due diligence and perhaps maybe you can benefit from actually putting them in the microwave upon confirmation.The lids themselves are surprisingly thick, strong and can hold heavier items atop them with ease. While these are a little more expensive than traditional containers, the lids justify the price. I've found the entire container a breeze to clean as well, and I don't worry about tomato based foods and other heavily spiced dishes staining the surface as I would with plastic containers.I'm actually pleasantly surprised by these containers and would recommend them for their versatility, durability, and easiness to clean.

Nice and Versatile Food Containers
This is a great set of food containers. First I like that they are metal and so versatile, oven, freezer, and microwaves safe. A great alternative to plastic and less fragile and heavy than glass. The glass and silicone lids are nice, though they don't seal as well as some lids, they are sufficient. They are on the small size, but that is necessary to work in the microwave. These are perfect for making a small dish of lasagna or other casserole that you can freeze and then cook in the same dish. Much easier to take to work then glass and healthier than using plastic. The best thing about them is that they nest with their lids inside each other making storage so much easier. I also like that I can use them to make a cake and then take it with me with a cover. Great for parties/potlucks, though they are a bit small for this depending on the dish. For me these are a great value and I'm sure I will get years of use out of these.

Decent set of large containers and lids, a complement to glass containers
We often cook enough to have leftovers for another day. These containers are great for storing meals. They are fairly large which helps when we make a lot of something. The lids seal well, at least so far. Most of the containers we have are glass. When glass containers get as large as these containers, they tend to be heavy. I also like that box isn't plastic, especially when the food I put in it is hot.I've chipped a few of the glass containers and broke a few too. I don't expect that from a metal box. Maybe I'll dent them, but at least I'm not creating shards.There are a few negatives with these containers. First, you can't see through the sides of the container. The issue is when you have a stack of these in the frig or freezer, you can't open the door and just see what's in a box. Not a big issue, but it's something.Second, the manufacturer claims these METAL containers are microwave oven safe. I don't believe them and I'm not willing to try it out. Caveat emptor.Third, the price of these containers is fairly steep compared to what I've paid for glass containers.

Love, Love, LOVE!!
I love these! They're my go-to for bringing my lunch to work. They seal fantastically, they're easy to clean, and they've got a glass top to see what's in there. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.

Sturdy Containers with Nice Quality Lids
These containers are nice overall. The stainless steel feels sturdy and well made, and the containers themselves seem durable enough for regular use. The lids are made from good quality materials and fit well, but I do wish they would stay sealed a little more securely.They’re easy to wash and don’t hold onto odors, and they also stack and store nicely when not in use. Overall, these are solid food storage containers with good build quality just a slightly tighter seal on the lids would have made them perfect.

Durable and great size!
Wow these are amazing! They are easy to get the lid on and off but it stays on very well. The lid is heavy duty and a bit heavy making it feel secure. All three of them are great size and not massive or too small. These are great for meal prepping and easy to clean. Overall, they are great for the money

Absolutely worth every penny!
These meal prep containers from NAYELF are excellent for storing food or whatever else you might want to keep fresh. They're extremely well made with smooth stainless steel bodies, and high quality glass and silicone lids. The lids seal snugly and are air-tight, and the whole thing cleans up with soap and water, easy-peasy. After using one to store pickle juice for a week, I rinsed it with dish detergent and water and there was no residual smell, even in the silicone. They are supposedly microwave-safe, though I was scared to test them. They're quite functional and I can imagine using these for a variety of things in and out of the kitchen.As the review title says, they're worth every penny!
