Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Camwear Polycarbonate Round Food Storage container, 8 Quart
Customer Review: Restaurant Grade Food Storage Containers
Summary: 4 Stars
Product: Cambro Clear Round Food Storage Containers {assorted sizes}
I cook a lot, and I have a lot of friend and acquaintances in the food service industry, and as anyone who's ever had a problem with food "pests" (meal worms, ants, cockroaches, mice, etc.) will rapidly attest, proper food storage is very important.
Important features to look for:
Stackability
Carry handles
Lids with good seals & size commonality
Break Resistance
Impermeability (resistant to chewing, boring, and oxidation)
Tight fitting lids
Clear construction (content visibility)
Easily readable fill/capacity levels (esp from side)
Hot/Cold Temperature resistance.
Stain resistance.
Value.
The cambro clear round food storage containers I have so far seem to fit the bill on most of the above. I use them for dry goods (breakfast cereal, shaped pastas, assorted dhal/lentils, rice, beans, etc.), and most of them fit well into my cabinets. I like them.
My one nit (hence the 4 stars instead of 5) is that the rigid lids aren't fully air/water tight ... which makes these better suited for dry goods than wet, if tipping over is a possibility (for things like soups and sauces, consider either jars with screw caps, or deli tubs with flexible 'burpable' lids. That's one of the few drawbacks of rigid high impact PET is that lids made from that material dont seal quite as snugly as those made from flexible plastics. As such, oxidation may be a problem for anything stored in them in bulk quantity for longer than a few months, esp in conditions of variable temperature and humidity (which creates a 'bellows' effect, causing air to constantly move in and out of the contrainer). In such circumstances, I generally prefer to use containers than can form an air/waterproof seal (such as ones that can accept a universal vaccum lid, or the burpable pails already mentioned). However, for most dry applications, these containers are fine.
For home use, I suggest the 2L, 4L & 7.5L sizes, which share a common lid size, and will stack side by side, and vertically, in/on/under most standard size cabinets and countertops.
Recommended for most, but not all, uses.
