Are they leak proof if used for liquids?

Short answer is no, they are not leak proof. There is no "gasket" in the lid and so when laid on its side, liquid will slowly leak out. With the shaker in, it seemed leak proof, but who would store liquids in a bottle with a shaker top?

I really don't know the answer to that question,but I do know they are tight fitting screw tops.

HI, I found the jars to have tight lid, because I did not want air to get to the spices that I leave in the RV from year to year. I'm only using dry spices, so cannot verify liquids.

Not good for liquids. They will leak. Designed for dry stuff. You will need something with a rubber gasket for liquids.

in my experience .... yes I used them to put sm. hot peppers with the juice covering them for my husbands lunchs, and he's not complained

I suppose that any glass container with a screw top would be leak-proof as long as it was tightly closed.

They are! I am still amazed by this - even after going through the dishwasher! I often bring soup or juicy fruit to work and it does not leak. Hope that helps!

No, it doesn't, and they are not leak-proof, although I do carry them in my lunch bag sometimes. They work well for thicker items like a smoothie or yogurt, but I wouldn't recommend them for liquids like juice or soup, unless it's just going in your fridge.

As stated in several reviews - they are not leak proof. We've spent too much time cleaning lunch boxes, car seats etc.

They are not waterproof but they are thick. We haven't had any issues with things leaking through.

These click shut and do not leak. They are good for putting liquids in. I use them for homemade ice cream, chili, soup, etc.

I do not believe they would leak. I found that the cork was quite secure. I, however, did not put any liquid in them when I used them. Hope it works for you.

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

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

I have never had a problem with liquids leaking. I use the smaller sizes in my lunch bags and have never had a leak. The others don't get shaken much unless I'm using them for a marinade, which get shaken gently, but again, no trouble. I like these a lot.

Kind of but not really. Also I wouldn't recommend them because of the sharp edge around the lip and that everyone single one has cracked on the bottom. They don't leak but I still didn't expect them to crack

We use them in a plastic bucket to water our chickens. We seal the edges with silicone and have never had a leakage problem.

They are very well made and seal tightly. I'm not sure they are air tight, but they are leak proof.

Yes. I have found these containers to be leak proof. I was pleasantly surprised to see how much food they can hold. So far, they have held up nicely, and I use them frequently.

I think probably not. I use them for pasta salad in bag lunches for lady's luncheons when they meet away from a home. I don't think they would hold liquid.

They only leak if you wash them in the dishwasher...they are NOT dishwasher safe! They need to be hand washed then you will have no leaks.
