Is anyone aware of any glass storage containers that actually stack?

Requirements

  • Non-Chip
  • Nestable/Stackable with the same size contain (i.e. 8" will nest into an 8")
  • Leak-Proof

Every container out there seems to not be stackable. Those that nest inside a container that is smaller always chip. I really don't want to put the lid between containers, as it's not super convenient and not storage friendly.

I found the perfect container but they don't seem to sell it anymore: https://giantfood.com/groceries/laundry-paper-cleaning/food-storage-wraps/storage-containers/rubbermaid-easy-find-lids-oven-safe-glass-food-storage-container-55-cup.html

We have the rectangle Pyrex containers. They stack well - we had to replace the plastic lids after 5-7 years.

I have these as well. They’ve never chipped or leaked. I can’t say the same for any other glass containers I’ve tried. Probably had them for 5-6 years now and all but two of my lids are still good.

I have a ton of the ones you linked to in different sizes. I searched but could only find out of stock links. Our lids are different (red outer, clear center) but they have held up well. Honestly they might be 15 years old by now. When was the big anti plastic push for food storage? I was surprised to see these aren’t still being sold. I think I have two footprints that stack - larger size had 3 depths and smaller size has two depths. The lids also squeeze together so you can stack them as a single unit per size - two towers vs dozens of loose lids. If you can find them somewhere or something similar I really recommend them. I’m pretty amazed we’ve had them so long - they have held up beautifully and get used constantly.

I love Snap Lock containers. They last 10 years plus, and won’t chip unless someone decides to hulk out when unloading the dishwasher.

The ikea 365 glass storage containers stack well and are very durable in my experience, though I don't know if they're sold as non chip.

Duralex Freshbox stack and nest. I don't know if they're sold outside France, unlike their drinking glasses.

Maybe check Corelle?

Really wish Rubbermaid still made the glass style you linked. We have a big set of them and they are very durable.

Mine are identical except they didn't come with the round ones. I can confirm that the square/rectangular ones all fit into each other. I think the lids have lifetime warranties too. Here's closer to my set, but I did buy it at Costco: https://www.snapware.com/product/10-piece-food-storage-container-set-made-pyrex-glass

If I ever come across them i’m the weirdo that will randomly message you bc I’ve remembered. The ikea ones sound promising - if you aren’t near a store join ikea family (it’s free) for shipping discounts.

Snapware from Costco! I agree the nesting glass ones chip. The snapware completely seal, lasts forever (I’ve had mine a long time). Costco seems to always carry it so you can replace a set if some disappear. And they stack well.

The square pyrex containers I have (Simply Store series) are stackable since the sides are slightly angled. Mine are decades old and still going strong. No chipping at all. I have replaced a few of the plastic lids, which are easy to find online.

I wish this post existed before I bought my own lol. I bought the Anchor Hocking stackable ones. They are round which distribute heat more evenly and are pretty durable, but they only stack with differently sized ones.
