OXO Tot Baby Blocks Freezer Storage Containers, Clear

I searched high and low for baby food containers...and I wish I would've purchased these from the very beginning. I initially bought some containers that would only hold 2 oz. of food thinking my young infant does not eat that much...well within a month or two, he needed more food...so I ended up buying another set of 3 oz....well guess what? Those ended up to be too small. My advice is to go with these larger containers from the get-go...because eventually you will need something this size (you just don't have to fill it up at the beginning).

Great quality, sturdy, looks great, and each set comes in a tray (stays put on my freezer shelves). Unlike other containers that cracks easily when frozen, these held up just fine. I take them straight out of the freezer and into the microwave without any problems. I've tried some other ones where the lids pop open while in the freezer or sometimes the plastic gets warped or stained...these still look brand new after using them for a month straight. There are very few containers that would hold 4 oz. of food but these are the perfect size because I even put his cruchy snacks in them and it's the perfect portion. Since they do not look like typical baby food containers, I plan on using these for myself for condiments, salad dressing, or side toppings when I bring my own lunch to work. I love these containers so much I bought 5 packs (I usually make a large batch of food at one time). They are not the cheapest containers out there but at least you would only have to buy these once (unlike me! I wasted so much money on the previous ones!)

As a full time working mom I needed a product that would help me conveniently make and store large quantities of baby food at once. Would definitely recommend these!

Pro's

1. No freezer burn

2. Durable...I dropped them several times with no crackling

3. Portable...just make sure the lid is secured properly

4. Comes with a convenient storage tray for stacking

Con's

1. Very hard to remove food once frozen

2. Lids can be hard to secure

I have enjoyed the OXO storage containers. They are easy to fill, stack nicely and have a very tight seal. I have not had any issues with freezer burn or ice crystals on any of my food to date. Great product.

I bought multiple sets of both the 2 oz and 4 oz sizes. Like others have said, this is a well thought through product. Lightweight, seals tightly, easy to clean, no issues with freezer burn or ice crystals. Also the tray is great for organizing. I usually put a little piece of masking tape on top and write what's inside and the preparation date with a Sharpie, and that works great for us.

I agree that the 2 oz size is only useful for a couple of months after your baby starts eating solids (but it is pretty handy to have for those first few months), so I would recommend getting only one set of the 2oz containers and a few (1-3, depending how much you plan to store) sets of the 4oz containers.

I personally only use this product for freezer storage or for foods that don't require microwaving (e.g. cereal Os on the go), because I prefer not to microwave baby food in anything plastic. For frozen foods, typically I'll remove a cube from the freezer and let it defrost in the fridge overnight, or just let it sit out at room temp for a few minutes until it defrosts enough to be able to pop out the food. Then I transfer to a glass container and defrost/warm in the microwave. For anyone interested in doing something similar who is looking for recommendations on small glass containers, I like the little Pyrex custard cups (with the scalloped open top) for food you're going to heat and serve immediately, and the Wean Green / Snaplock glass containers for easy fridge-to-microwave storage.

I use these to freeze home made baby food. Overall they freeze well. The lids are tough to get off, so much so that I usually fling a little food out every time I open a jar. I'm still looking for containers with screw on lids.
