Are these sturdy enough to use in the freezer?

Very thick and sturdy. I use them everywhere. Haven't used them in the freezer, but don't know why not.

My thought is, the longer plastic is frozen the more brittle or fragile it can become. It should work for quite a spell as long as there is no abuse to the basket. You ever have food frozen in a plastic container and drop it? Therefore, if you fill your basket full, take it out and let it hit the floor with that weight, you could more than likely say good bye to the basket. Keeping that in mind, they should work just fine.

I have used the same ones in the freezer for over 5 years and they stand up great.

I don't think they will break if frozen because they seem to be substantial and pliable enough to withstand freeze, but I have not tested them. I have been very pleased with how well they are holding up after several dishwasher cycles. Still look and feel brand new.

Yes, you can. I use them on freezer bags and plastic containers in which I store leftovers in the freezer.

Not sure I have not tried them in the freezer as of yet sorry I couldn't answer the question

I think they would be strong enough. They're not as thick as a Popsicle stick but still sturdy and smooth.

Not to my knowledge. Just do not overfill them when you place them in the freezer.

Yes, with cautions.Leave plenty of headroom for freezing items to expand and don't overfill. Don't change temperatures suddenly. I only put the food in the freezer from room temperature, and I don't heat suddenly.I feel a little more secure with these in the freezer than thinner jars, but a broken glass would not surprise me at all.

I have never tried to put them in the freezer, but as they don't tightly, I wouldn't try it.

Accidentally answered yes to this. I have never tried freezing with these. Not why I bought them. Sounds a little scary. Would think the glass would easily break.

They are not air tight - liquids seep out if you turn them on the side. I use them in the frig and for pantry storage but have never used them in the freezer.

They can go in the dishwasher. I don't think it would be a problem to put them in the freezer.

They are plastic with a rubber gasket and yes, you can put them in the freezer.

They are very good to use as canisters. I would not put them in the freezer.

If they are already frozen, I don't see why not. They would, however, be open at the bottom. Just my opinion, though.

Have not attempted this, but I feel confident that they would hold up for a single use if they went immediately into the freezer. I am equally confident that they would NOT hold up for more than a single use and/or if the water were significantly hot when put into the container. Hope that helps.

The containers are designed for use in the refrigerator. We do not recommend using in the freezer.

I use three of them in my freezer. Heavy, but handy to lift onto the counter. They stay somewhat organized. My ice cube trays do not fit into them, so the last quarter is open. I have been using them for a long time and none have cracked. You do lose a bit of space due to the sloped sides, but worth it, I think.
