Full details →Who the Glasslock 18-Piece Tempered Glass Food Container Set is for
Buy it if: Anyone tired of turmeric-stained plastic and willing to handle the extra weight.
Avoid it if: Anyone carrying lunch daily -- 6.8 kg for the set, and glass in a bag is a risk.

Avoid it if: Families of four or more -- the two-thirds fill rule makes this smaller in use than it sounds.
