Can these containers be used in the freezer?

The containers are designed for use in the refrigerator. We do not recommend using in the freezer.

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 have had no issue using them in the freezer for short periods of time. The seal is pretty tight. Long term like with any type container frost builds up.

I haven't tried to put them in the freezer, but I have used them in the microwave and then put icy cold liquids in with no problems. They aren't made of pyrex, but they seem pretty durable.

Yes, you can put them in the freezer and you can also use them to bake or heat food (of course without lids). I don't know the exact measurements but the larger one is about 6"Lx3"Wx2"D... The larger round one is about 4" diameter x 2" deep.

According to the manufacture, they are freezer safe. My wife and I use freezer bags or plastic storage containers to store items in the freezer.

I never thought about freezer usage but I guess it would be possible. As with any product I would check with the manufacturers recondmendations.

I've never put them in the freezer, but I don't see why you couldn't. Although they are awesome at room temperature! Best teether my son used.

Yes, I believe they are safe for the freezer, but that's only my experience. I can't guarantee this.

I have not used mine in the freezer. They appear to be made from a very high quality, rigid plastic. I am not sure what the cold would do to the seal on the lid, or to the clear plastic. Frankly, I prefer Ziploc Freezer bags for anything I have to freeze. I press the air out of the bag to better preserve the food, and also to help it fit better by taking less space. I believe the Oxo containers would take up too much room in the freezer, personally. That space is always at a premium.

I do not have a direct answer but if I froze them I would open them and dump them out in a ice cube tray and freeze them that way. Reason being I am not sure that the plastic container is designed to be frozen? or rated to be frozen. Just my 2 cents maybe some one will chime in their thoughts to help answer your question.

I don't see why you couldn't, but they are huge (you can put large chunks of animal in them). You would probably still want to heat seal for long term storage to avoid possible freezer burn.

Personally, I wouldn't use them in the freezer. They are steel-mesh, therefore, metal, so there's a couple places I wouldn't recommend using them: someplace extremely hot or someplace extremely cold. I have used covered wire shelving in my freezer quite successfully. I put cardboard over them when using ziplock bags so they freeze flat and not with slots where they have fallen through the wire shelf. Hope that helps.

I wouldn't see why not. So long as you keep it level when placing it in the freezer.

I would imagine they could. I haven't tried that, as I don't have room in my freezer at the moment.

If they are already frozen, I don't see why not. They would, however, be open at the bottom. Just my opinion, though.

I don't use them in my freezer but as long as you measure first they should work.
