Are they suitable to freeze chili in?

Yes. I use them to freeze soup. But, I seal the top with plastic wrap as a precautionary measure.

They work great for ice cream, so I don't see why not! They're not really sealed, though, so freezer burn might be a problem.

Yes. I've frozen soups and chilis in them. They're basically the same as used for soup at the deli. Just leave some room at the top for expansion when freezing.

I have also had good luck using them for stews in addition to ice cream. I also use a layer of plastic wrap across the top.

Yes, I was able to put them in the freezer. The only problem I had was the lids don't stay on very well and it's not a complete seal if the lids do stay put.

I have not tried them in the freezer but I love these bins. The plastic is an excellent quality. If I had to guess, I would say it would be fine in the freezer.

I haven't but I'm sure you can. I just wouldn't leave them frozen for an extended period. I love these for many different uses.

No, I wouldn't. You would get freezer burn. They are not thick enough. You should use freezer paper. It is thicker and has a coating on the one side so food wouldn't stick.

I think your ok to use in the freezer, but don't try to heat in them--not at all like Pyrex, which can be heated. I tried to warm on stove with one of the Libbey ones and it cracked. I think these are mainly for food storage only.

I have never put them in the freezer, I googled it and it says you can - says they are dish washer safe to just not microwaveable

I have never tried it. If you freeze them, I don't see why not. I love using them for cakes.

Yes, but I would not freeze for extended periods of time, as the plate may slightly warp. The main problem would be temperature changes. Thaw in fridge, then microwave. These are very hardy plates.

Yes, l use them to freeze left overs. When you defrost in microwave Be sure to loosen the top or the lid will crack do to heat expanding.

You need to use the base to freeze them - they wouldn't stand up on their own. But it doesn't take up much freezer space.

They would work to freeze dinner in, you would have to put wrap on the lid and you would not be able o microwave to defrost.

Yes! I use mine for freezing all kinds of things. The only drawback is (and this happens in any condition, not just the freezer) every once in a while they "unvacuum" It usually happens quickly because of not zipping them tightly enough, but sometimes it is because of a bad bag or small hole in the bag, so I check in a day or two to avoid freezer burn, stale food, etc.

No, these are definitely not made to hold hot foods. For chili or soup, you would be much better off with styrofoam or waxed paper containers.

I have not tried to freeze them. And I don't think it would work very well. If the expanding liquid didn't break them, the extreme cold would probably make them more prone to crack

sorry...I have never tried freezing them but they are awesome for regular use.

They should, although I have not put them in the freezer. I would not put the lid on the bowl, but use plastic wrap or foil and press tightly.
