Pyrex is the king of variety, but that also creates problems when it comes to consistency. All three of these brands offer different lines and products, but which one is most consistent in terms of benefits? Anchor Hocking has one of the smaller product lines, but you can choose between Classic lines, TrueSeal and various others ones that each have slightly different benefits. Something has to be said for consistency. While none of the brands really beat the other in terms of tightness, Anchor Hocking is just slightly better when it comes to convenience since this is easier to use and it won’t ever hurt your fingers. They can be a pain to lock, and sometimes it hurts your fingers to unlock them.Īnchor Hocking’s TrueSeal line uses a thicker lid that snugly fits the top and has a lip that you can pull to easily remove the lid when you’re ready. However, Anchor Hocking edges GlassLock out just slightly with their level of convenience. GlassLock’s products all have similar snaps, so you get this level of protection with all of their products. The former has thicker and stronger lids, while the latter uses small plastic snaps that really keep the lid affixed. Pyrex has the Ultimate and Snapware lines. So, you definitely want to choose a product that can keep your food properly locked away until you’re ready to open and consume.Īll three brands not only excel at tightness and locking, they all have products dedicated to extra protection. Here’s a simple question: why do you seal away food? Obviously, so that air and other contaminants can’t get to it. You can even get mutli-colored lids or glass with designs on it. Not only can you find the exact size and shape that you want, but they also offer a ton of different colors. Pyrex has dozens of products and packages to choose from. Pyrex has been around for many years, and is probably the most well-known brand out of these three (much like with Xerox and copies and Band-Aid with adhesive medical strips, people call most glass containers a Pyrex, just to show you how powerful this brand is). However, both GlassLock and Anchor Hocking are behind Pyrex in this regard. Ranging from different sizes to multiple shapes like circles, squares, and rectangles, along with package deals where you get several containers at once for a discount. VarietyĪll three of these brands have built up quite an arsenal of products. In short, they’re all great brands to choose from, but your preferences will dictate which one is best for you. However, on very close inspection, you’ll find that each brand excels in one or two areas that the other brands falter in. The problem here is that all three brands are incredibly similar, making it difficult to pick out obvious differences between them. There are three major brands that come to mind with glass storage containers: Pyrex, GlassLock, and Anchor Hocking. Many people are moving away from plastic because, even though there are “ microwave safe” models, studies show they still leach plastic and chemicals into food, which nobody wants. When it comes to storage containers for food, there are two main materials to choose from: plastic or glass.
