Glass food storage containers that next

Anonymous
Does anyone have a set that nest? Not like mixing bowls with smaller ones in larger ones - but the design of the container allows for them to fit into one another? I do not have an expectation that this will be like plastic - but I have a smaller kitchen and need for some nesting as opposed to stacking in my kitchen.

Thanks for any tips

I’d be cautious about that. Growing up, my mother had a set of fancy glass bowls that tapered, so she stacked them. Eventually, I noticed that the inside rim had sharped edges because stacking them had apparently worn and chipped them over the years. If you do stack glass, you might try layering protective paper or cloth in between the dishes.

IKEA has these in a variety of sizes and shapes. They work great and we have not had any issues with the sharpening PP mentions after around 5 years of use.

We have the anchor hocking glass storage containers and they nest.

I've tried a bunch. Something about the design of any glass container with a snapware lid means that the glass chips and really awful ways (ESPECIALLY if you nest the containers).

The pyrex with this lid design (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0157G34AY/?tag=thewire06-20&linkCode=xm2&ascsubtag=F0401HZT2APJAF7QMVV07QVVQT9RB&th=1) are the only ones that have really held up. If you put lids in the dishwasher, expect to replace them every 5-7 years.

I have a set of these Pyrex. The containers have held up great for 8+ years now, and I use them all the time. Most of the lids have cracked, even with handwashing. You can find replacement lids on Amazon, though!
