Do the covers lock in place so they won't leak?

They work really well at first. I've put these lids in the dishwasher though, and I think that warps them a bit and they become less leak-proof. So, if you buy them, make sure to wash the lids by hand.

They lock really well and I haven't had any problems with leaking. I often keep them in my bag while walking to work - they turn sideways/upside down frequently and I don't worry at all about them leaking

I've had these containers for about three years and I don't think I've ever had one of them leak. My family uses them everyday and we always wash them in the dishwasher including the lids, often on heated sanitizing cycles and I've not experienced any changes in the way the lids fit, unlike some other containers we've tried before that warp easily. These don't -- the lids continue to seal really well even after years of use. I've never had a lid come off accidentally and we've toted them just about everywhere.

I put water in one of the containers and turned it upside down several times and it didn't leak, but no guarantees. Hope that helps.

Yes, they lock in place and have had no problems with leaking. It really is a nice set of containers.

So far no they do not. The one at the facet seem tight and no water leaks at all. So at least that is good.

I have not experienced any leaks from the containers while toting in my lunch bag. I try to keep containers with food upright as much as possible but have emptied my bag with a container shifted on its side, etc. but have never had any spills so far (although I have only owned these for about 8 months now). I wash the lids in my dishwasher too, so I think they are designed very well.

The tops seal pretty tight and there is no spillage. We lay them down, so far there hasn't been any spillage.

The lid on mine seals very tightly. They are definitely "air-tight". I have not tested it in water, but I would assume that yes, they are. Hope that helps :)

They seem to work when tapped on the side or pushed up. Even being able to do this I haven't noticed any leaking.

Mine fits tight enough to hold upside down and no water leaks out. It does not have a sealing ring so it may not be air tight.

They have been known to leak. I have discovered that if I heat the lids before tightening, the plastic will become malleable and I can tighten them further. Then, when they cool, the plastic shrinks and the lid will be tighter and not leak.However, just for picking up and shaking a drink, I have not had a leak with something like that. When they leak usually it's a very small seep.

No, they don't leak. We have used them for years. We use ours on our boat and it is so much easier to roll it down to the pier that carrying a heavy cooler. The pocket on the front also stays dry so that you can store corkscrews, napkins etc.

I'm not sure but I know they don't leak. This is my second time ordering this and haven't had a problem.

No not really. They might longer than a reg container if you had them wrapped/packed inside something thermal or insulated. Also, the lid shuts tight but if you were to fill it with water, for example, I'm sure it would leak out. It's not a complete "seal".

Yes they do! I have had no issues with them sealing properly, quite pleased with the craftsmanship myself ma'am .

The lids are the same in term of leakage. I use saran wrap before I put the lids on. That works for me.

the lids I have fit firmly in place and I'm not afraid that they would leak with fluids. I use one of mine for cucumbers with vinegar. have had it almost a year now with no problems. if they do leak you should be able to get them replaced, free of charge.

They do not, but they don't leak at all. I'm very pleased with them. They also fit over a regular flat canning lid so if leaking were to become an issue that would be a way to work around it. Hope this helps.

They are not airtight. Water will not get in. There is no seal, but the lid overlaps the side by 2 inches. The lid also fits very snug. I have used these for about 5 years now. They are very well made (good materials, heavy duty) hold up to lots of abuse and have a lot of space. I put gear I want to keep dry and safe in it and put it in the bed of my truck. I have traveled many thousand miles with these in my truck bed and never had any issues with water leakage no matter what the weather brings.

They Don't leak... But you need to make sure you "snap" the lid close. if you don't hear the "snap" its not closed. :-)
