Do they leak? Can they be stored horizontally?

I haven't experienced leaks with them, you can place them horizontal and assuming you have a flat even surface they'll be fine, but I own these and the 5 ounce medela bottles that are fatter and I prefer those.While they haven't broken on me I feel like these are more flemsy and I can't store as much milk so I've switched to the larger ones.

They do not leak when closed tightly. Yes they can be stored horizontally. I recommend them :)

They haven't leaked and I have stored them horizontally. Of course, just make sure the lid is properly screwed on :). These are great bottles and I love that I can grab one "to go" for a snack for baby by just screwing a nipple on instead of the cap!

Not really. They keep air out. They will not keep pressure in the container-it will go flat

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.

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 held in liquids very well in my freezer. I laid then on their side and nothing leaked. Hope this helps!

I tested each one filled with water. Two leaked, one didn't. There are always slight differences in items like this. If you are going to turn them upside down or sideways, test each lid first to make sure.

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.

I honestly haven't tested them, I load them up and stack them and put them in the freezer. I have never had anything leak out, the lid is tight, it won't pop off. I haven't put them on their sides or upside down however to test the seal. Hope this helps!

Yes you can store on side. If it leaks there is something wrong with the product.

I have had some leaks when liquids were in them and they were shaken upside down. IMO, I'd not take them in a backpack unless closed in a ziploc.

No, they would not leak. I poured a hot solution into mine & they were fine. Worked pretty great actually.

Yes they do leak I thought they would be better since it's a Rubbermaid item

I tested two of them to see if they are water-tight. You have to have the lid perfectly in place, otherwise they leak. I would not recommend them for transporting liquids (such as in a bag). Hwvr, they would make fine canisters for around your work space.

I don't normal store them on their side, but I put one on it's side the other night and left it for the night and the entire next day. Absolutely no sign of leakage! (And this one had essential oils with a carrier oil in it.) I am pleased with them!

No, but I've tried a couple different things that have worked - if you put them in right side up, they can fit into the slats of the freezer shelf, or you can put them upside down. I've never had a leak personally, because the lids fit well, but my kids did, so maybe they overfilled them, or didn't get the lids all the way down. Just to make sure now, I use the baking sheet from our toaster oven to place them on while they freeze :)

They wouldn't leak; however, please refer to the dimensions, they are pretty tiny.

I have never had a problem with them leaking, although I don't specifically turn jars upside down to check.
