Do the lids really stay on? I've dealt with past and the lids come off with no effort.

The lids stay on. There is a tab at one of the corners (not shown in the picture) that you sue to take off the lids. Otherwise, it would be a little hard to get them off. However, it is easy if you use the tab. So they stay on very well but are also relatively easy to take off.

Yes, nice and snug, tome after time, and you can clean them iin the dishwasher - but NEVER use them in the microwave, of course!

These lids snap on snugly and there's no chance of them coming loose without a strong tug. They pop off nicely but are tight enough to never just fall off.

So far I haven't had any problems with this but have had them less than a year.

Yes...Yes, it stays up, you need to tighten the screws to adjust how easy or hard it is to stay open. If it is loose, the lid will fall down. If it's too tight, you won't be able to open it. Once it's configured, it works great. Over time, you might need to readjust it b/c it might loosen.

No- the lids stay in place well, but it's not leakproof, so if there is any liquid, it will spill through. Best to keep flat

They don't actually snap closed, but I know what you are talking about. I ordered 2 sets (4 containers, and one of the containers is defective. I tried all the lids plus some that I already had, and the one bottom would not seal with any of the tops. All 4 of the tops worked my bottoms including my older ones. I have been so busy that I haven't contacted the vendor to see if I can get a replacement. Guess I need to do that. I really love them, and already had 4 when I ordered these 4. I like that they will stack about 3 high in a small space in my fridge, and I have kept Romaine Lettuce leaves fresh for 4 weeks in one.

I don't have any issues at all. I like that they seal airtight. I put the lids in the dishwasher on the top shelf. I don't know what the company says, but it's been fine for us.

The lids are a hard plastic. They kind of suction in the containers. They stay in pretty good.

No the covers don't come off. They stay nice wiping them with a damp cloth.

No, the only way the lids stay open is to step on the foot pedal. I thought that could be a nuisance but it's hands free and I don't actually find a problem with it. It's a great garbage can.

Yes. I have no issues with the lid. I do close it when I'm not using it. But it does stay open when I am.

The lid will become disconnected if you open the lid all the way back and there's nothing behind to support it. I keep the trunk up against a wall so that won't be an issue. Before I knew that, though, I did have the lid come off and it's a bit of a pain to re- attach it. So yes the lid does come off, if not intentionally! If you did it intentionally or more than a time or two, I'd worry about the hinges being damaged. All in all though, I love these storage boxes!

I haven't had that problem...quite the opposite. The lid was on so tight I had trouble getting it off.

Yes they do. I was told once you use the lids, and finish the jam you are to throw away the lids and replace them with new when you can again...

I have used these lids quite awhile now and they always work fine. maybe your needle is out of adjustment, or is set too short.

I live in a Center where about a dozen people use them. They are so popular I have bought 3 sets. People use them to store in the fridge and the freezer. I bought the first set months ago. NO lids have broken off. Maybe they will start to...but so far they have proven VERY sturdy.

can also pull them off with a little effort. I also bought the WalMart "Better Homes and Garden" container w/ the flip lock lid and I can do the same with a little more effort. I've had them for 6 mos. they both seem to keep things fresh and bugs out. (I live in Florida). They also look nice on the counter.

Definitely!! These lids aren't the easiest to remove as they are tightly sealed (which is what you want) but you can certainly put them back on again with some force to make sure they are completely sealed.

No the lid doesn't fall off however it sometimes doesn't stay up when you try to open it. It might be my clumsy fingers but I am totally happy with it
