Does anybody use them? I've been looking into them and am wondering...

*Do they ever collapse when you don't want them too (when there's food in them)?

*What brand do you like best (Progressive, Tupperware, or Rubbermaid)?

I use these all the time and have never had any issues with them. I do like Tupperware, but I bought some from Camping World and they are good too.

I tried the 8" Rubbermaid - loved the idea of using less space for a larger bowl. Hated the bowl!!! It was very difficult to push out and didn't seem to want to stay out well, either. I pitched it.


See ya' down the road!

DW now has 3 bowels and a colander. Likes and uses them all. Never had a problem with them collapsing unexpectedly. Collander gets used a lot. Three bowl set from Costco and colander from CW.

Yes we use them. Great space saver.

We fought ours at first on getting them open. Now we love them. It was like anything new. We just had to learn how to open and close them.

We have never had one try to close on it's own.

Mine came from Menards where we had gone to get lumber. I love them. Sometimes my husband has to open one for me. I wish I have bought two sets.

I have them, plus a colander, dish drainer, measuring cups and teaspoons. I've had absolutely no problem with collapsing, BUT I learned with the first one that I make sure they are absolutely DRY before collapsing them. The first bowl I bought seemed to stick and "tore" apart when I tried to open. I LOVE the storage space I save by using them!

They are great spacesavers. We've tried the measuring cups, the dish drainer and colander. The only one I kept and use was the colander.
