Rubbermaid All-In-One Food Storage Set Review and Giveaway

~~The giveaway is now CLOSED~~

I'm sure Rubbermaid is not an unfamiliar name to most of you. Our family has been using Rubbermaid products for years. To me, Rubbermaid is a time-honored brand that stands for quality, durability, and affordability. Rubbermaid provides a wide range of products that help people meet organization and storage challenges in the kitchen, the garage, closets, and other parts of their home. Rubbermaid's blog Adventures in Organization also offers valuable organizational tips and real life experiences from Rubbermaid experts.


Known as a "Brand of the Century", Rubbermaid continues to bring us new and innovative products. Their brand new Easy Find Lids™ system introduces lids that snap together and to bases to simplify food storage and organization. Luckily, I was selected to review an All-In-One 20-Piece Food Storage Set featuring Easy Find Lids™, Produce Saver™, Lock-Its™ and Premier™ containers in various sizes.

I absolutely adore these useful and versatile food containers. All of them are microwave, freezer and dishwasher safe. The Easy Find Lids system has a smart design that saves the trouble of matching lids to their bases and that allows containers to stack neatly together. I'm particularly impressed with unique features of the Produce Saver line, which utilizes the Fresh Vent and Crisp Tray to let in air and to lock out moisture. Fruits and vegetables are therefore kept fresh and crisp for a longer time.

My husband's favorite is the Lock-Its containers, which he uses to take lunch to work. The extra locking tabs make sure the lid is securely locked in place and prevent messy food spills. The Premier line is made of shatterproof plastic that resists stains and odors for a long time. Tomato sauce and chili sauce tend to stick to plastic containers especially after being heated in microwave. The problem has been resolved since I started to use the Premier containers for storage and reheating. These containers also have Flex & Seal™ lids that are easy to seal and open. I highly recommend the entire food storage set to everyone!

Rubbermaid products are widely available in supermarkets, drug stores, mass merchandisers, warehouse clubs, and hardware and home center stores across North America. You may use this printable coupon to save $1.00 on your purchase of Easy Find Lids food containers.
