handy little containers – great little containers for carrying about babies munchies. i've freezed baby food in them and they still are fine to use over again. bright neutral colours are always a plus and I have used it a couple of times as a jelly cup mould too or for taking my lunch to work in. inexpensive, excellent to freeze and reheat, bright colours not air tight

Excellent – They are cheap, come in pack of 6, have a big matching product range, recyclable, colourful, perfect size, freezer/ microwave/ dishwasher safe, stackable in fridge or feezer, can buy almost anywhere, They really are just GREAT! highly recommend I make my own baby food so I need something small (snake\baby meal size) to store it in. I make big… Read more

batches and they are great because they stack on top of each other, you can freeze and microwave them and I have never had any leaks with them. They are stimulating colours for learning babies, They are very cheap, come in a pack of six inter changable lids. I would never throw them out but if you lose one it doesn't cost too much to replace (plus people generally know they're yours and return them) Also if you're out and your bub has a (small) messy bib I just roll it up and put it in the container put the lid so the nappy bag doesn't get dirty and I'm not wasting plastic bags. When your done with them the are recyclable but I haven't got to that yet. You can get cup and stuff to match. I cannot think of any

Not fancy but perfect for the job – I'm using these as bowls for weaning my son onto solids, as they're a perfect size, easy to clean, and provide excellent value for money. I can use them in the microwave to reheat frozen portions of food, and clean them in the dishwasher. The lids that come with them snap on nicely, although I have not tried carrying around liquid in my… Read more

bag.

These will have a lot of life left in them after my son has finished weaning. Inexpensive, colourful, tight lids Don't put boiling liquid in them

extremely handy and long life – nothing to toss after use, I have mines for many months and I am still using for many thing. When the boys were little I used for freezing all the baby food I was cooking, for storing fruits on the fridge, taking food out, storing dummies, and even as I toy in the car (putting things inside for them to open or use as a improvised rattle), they… Read more

love it. Now we just bring those to the table with their food and baby cutlery and they feed themselves straight from the cups.

An absolute must I say! Cool colours, easy to use and BPA free, fit easily on any bag and extremely practical.. a keeper couldn't find anything bad about it.

These are fantastic! – With my first I bought all the fancy ice cube tray and freezer style tubs intended for storing home made baby food and what a waste! These containers are a fantastic all rounder at an unbeatable price. Great for storing and freezing baby foods, can be used in the dishwasher and microwave, long lasting. Great for dummies or formula powder if you… Read more

chose or have to go that way. Excellent for toddlers who are just learning to eat food from snack cups as they are small enough to hold while still being big enough to fit a decent snack in. Great design, wide range of colors, great price.

Excellent – I have found these snack cups come in very handy for lots of different things. I have used them for food, tablets, dummies etc. They have been in and out of the dishwasher time and time again with no worries. The only issue I have with them and it is not their mistake is that the lids are very similar to the Nuby ones. I have the Nuby ones and… Read more

these in the same tub and am always trying to fit the wrong lid on the wrong bottom. They are that close in size and look. The lids fit tight and I have not had any spills with them. They are cute and colourful. Can go in the dishwasher. There is nothing I don't dislike about them.

Excellent – A really great, inexpensive product! Lovely bright colours, easy to use and easy to clean. These containers are also BPA free which is great. A great product for when you are starting to wean your baby from just milk onto solids. These containers are easy to use, easy to clean, and brightly coloured. They are also BPA free!!! My daughter is… Read more

facinated just by the look of these containers. They have cute little bear patterns on them. Can buy this product at a number of locations, including Big W, Target, Supermarkets, Kmart. They are really quite cheap too. Nothing - product is great.

Excellent – Even though this does say it is a Take and Toss product - I keep mine. I find that they last really well and then I don't mind so much if they get lost or accidentally left behind somewhere. Just a little note that the material does stain a little bit (pasta sauce). A great product from The First Years These are really great. Not that I use… Read more

them to just throw out. They are a really good size for the littlies and I love that you can just pop them in the dishwasher or freezer. I Couldn't really think of anything.

Excellent – These are a great little product that are really cheap and can be used for so many different purposes when you have a young baby or toddler. A great product. These tubs are so handy to have around and great for loading up with snacks and other meals for babies or toddlers. They fit easily into your handbag and can be reused over and over again… Read more

with no hassle. These tubs are easy to find in the stores and are priced very affordably. They will last a long time and you get a good amount in each packet. They will get a bit scratched and stained over time.

Good – Not a bad product overall, a good size for snacks and small meals for babies, however not quite large enough for a toddler meal. Easy to use, the lids fit snugly and are easy to get on and off. ALthough marketed as "take and toss" we don't tend to throw them out as they are quite sturdy and are always useful for something. A great affordable… Read more

package for toddlers snacks, biscuits, custard or small meals. Handy to take out and about, also good to store food in at home. Great bright colours. Don't microwave too well - very hot and some acidic foods still stain them and leave a mark.

Excellent – really fantastic value and very versatile, can be used for so many things. great little containers that id recommend for everone I cant understand why anyone would throw these out!! they are ridiculously cheap compared to other similar items on the market and come in handy for all sorts of things!! i refuse to buy any other sippy cups or… Read more

bowls/containers for my children as they either get lost or chewed on or broken etc..atleast i know if somthing happens to these, i havent paid an arm and a leg for them. they also come in bright colours and you can buy them in multi coloured multi packs. i always tend to lose the lids but i think thats more my fault.

OK – Dislike the marketing angle but does serve its purpose well, which is why I am only giving it a 3 rating. (I try not to microwave them due to the controversy of chemicals leaching out of microwaved plastic containers. Most research states that this doesn't occur with plastic containers with a microwave safe symbol but if you've ever heated acidic… Read more

food such as pasta sauce, the container stains permanently for some reason.) - idea size

- great colours

- dishwasher (top rack) and freezer safe

- secure lids

- quite durable - the fact that they are marketed as "take & toss"! It sounds catchy but this item seems quite durable and can also be recycled. I wouldn't throw this item out just because it is cheap to replace.

Excellent – These are great for any age as they are so versitile and are quite affordable. I have not only used them for my 19mth old son but also my 6yr daughter for snacks on the run and after school sports. They are a good size to store fruit/vegies in and they don't leak as i have even taken yogurt in them and havent had any spillages. These are great.… Read more

They are a good size for snacks of fruit/veg or bickies for on the run and they are also great for toddlers that are just starting out eating solids by themselves as they can be tossed on the ground and thrown away if damaged. The container is quite hot to touch after being heated in the microwave

Excellent – These are fantastic, i love that they are cheap enough that you can even throw them out and not worry about how how much they cost, though i never throw mine out as they come in really handy. they are really easy to clean, either with your normal dishes or they can be washed in the dishwasher which is great too. These are very affordable, great… Read more

size to take out for the day or to store food in the fridge. I freeze all my sons food in these as i can put small portions in them and they are microwaveable.

Bad – I find these just dont work for me, they always leak or the kids come off, when I do use them I put a lacky band around the container to make sure it doesnt come off. Good sizes and very colourful. The lids feel flimsy and like they dont click onto the container.

Excellent – I have used these for jelly, leftovers, formula, craft bits and pieces, pudding, hair dodads, homemade paint colours, playdough, fruit and heaps of other things. They fit in my husbands lunch box too. Because they don't cost much you can justify tossing them if they get wrecked. But they are very hardy little containers. Very usefull. I have used… Read more

these for almost anything. Easy to clean and easy to use. Not to expensive either. The smaller lids also fit the cups so if you need a bigger serving you just use one of the cups with the lid. They don't leak if tipped up. Nothing to dislike about this product.

Excellent – These are fantastic. They can be reused many many times over but they were inexpensive so it didn't matter if they had to be tossed out or we left them somewhere. They sealed well and were easy to open. The range that includes the drinking tops are also worth buying. Cheap enough that it didn't matter if it had to be thrown out (or was left somewhere) Nothing to dislike
