Are these containers completely clear, or do they have the hideous swirls that I see in some of the other sets? The pic here is not quite good enough.

Hi Steve, my wife bought this item, she said it is the swirl design and remembers it all to well. She thought she was getting the black lids and when she opened the box and saw the red lids with swirls she packed it up and sent it back to Amazon. FYI she later went to Target and bought the Rubbermaid Premier in the store and informed me they have both clear plastic and glass with the red lid. Hope this helps!

Hi Steve Mifflin, they do have swirls. Walmart sells them also but I believe those have swirls too. Not sure where they can be bought without swirls.

Not clear like glass would be. They do have a pretty design on it. Personally, I like the set a lot. It keeps the food very well, it's stackable, cleans up well and I haven't had a problem with staining. Hope this helps.

Not cheap looking. The acrylic is about 1/8" thick. I don't have a glass canister to compare the item to, but they look like glass to me. I am not sure how well they will hold up after many cleaning and not sure if they are easily scratched. I am using the canisters to store dry goods such as rice, cereal and popcorn. The item have a very good seal that keeps my cereal fresh. I would prefer glass, but acrylic serves my purpose.

Lids are clear. Yes there's writing.... says Xeonic in large letters then in very small letters it says "The best freshness by an excellent air tightness. Good design & convenient style" The writing is not an eyesore by any means. Didn't even notice it until I received your ? and looked to answer you. They're such a nice set...strong,bpa-free,dishwasher safe,etc. Got sick of the take n toss cheap stuff because they really do stain, unlike these bowls. Hope I helped!!!

I have a completely different set - I don't know why this question came to me! Mine is greyish green with these kind of swirls.....

I don't know why these have the tint to them, the pacs are usually clear. Free and clear with a tint, doesn't seem like free and clear to me. They wash ok though, haven't had any problems with that.

The lids are clear. It is only the seal around the inside of the lid that has color. All of mine have a pale green seal. These containers are wonderful. I have two sets and have given a set to my daughter and daughter-in-law. We use ours every day for storage.

Yes, they are clear. I have most of my recipes one per "envelope". If recipes are small enough for one side I can even put recipes back to back. These are great helps to keep the cards clean while in use, also!

The containers are clear glass with green-rimmed clear plastic lids. These are the best storage containers I have ever used.

Yes. Clean and clear as can be. The only negative I have found is that they collect water in the inverted bottom of the glasses/mugs - the first time I put them through the dishwasher I got water everywhere taking them out - now that I know, it's no big deal.

Yes. They're clear... :-) You can see the colors very clearly through the plastic.

I bought the clear glasses and I love them. I have seen the colored ones and I think the glass is colored. But the clear ones are beautiful when colored liquid is in them.

Hi Emilia. The bags sold by Plasticplace are clear and only clear. I can't say for sure regarding the other sellers.

There is a panel on both narrow sides that is clear, but the rest is "frosted". Not totally opaque, since you can partially see the contents, but like frosted glass. I hope this helps. We love ours. I use them in the bottom of my pantry.

I'm not an expert but my set of came very clear and clean. I keep them in the freezer and put them in the dishwasher. Probably 50 or more washes already and they are still clear as when they first arrived. I would say I'm impressed by the purity.

The lids are completely clear, while the cups are somewhat "milky" - it does not distort your view of the item inside enough to be a bother.
