Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of FoodSaver T020-00079-010 2-Quart Open Stock Rectangular Canister with Cheese Grater
Customer Review: Definitely, not what it is cracked up to be!
Summary: 1 Stars
Basically, the FOODSAVER system is sound and well designed EXCEPT for the canisters which often crack. Many of us have urged Tilia to upgrade the plastic canisters, and so far they have refused. I do not put the canisters in the dishwasher, or even use harsh chemicals. One canister cracked, pressurized, on the shelf after a few weeks without being moved. When you call Tilia they will let you know that there is NO WARRANTY OF ANY KIND on their canisters, which tells volumes about how they view their own product.
Tilia blames their customers for the cracks. I am honestly sorry I did not heed the warnings I read by Amazon consumers before I purchased. I usually depend on Amazon customer recommendations for all my purchases. I have spent much money on Tilia accessories, and am now considering looking for another brand. Hope this helps, Ron
Customer Review: FoodSaver Essential Accessory
Summary: 5 Stars
This container also comes with a shredder/grater. It works great for marinating meat and veggies, it seals well and holds vacuum. The quick release and the clips to hold the lid on make life easy. After using mine for about 3 months, I wouldn't be without it.Customer Review: FoodSaver T020-00079-010 2-Quart Open Stock Rectangle

Customer Review: Foodsaver Containers Impossible to Stack
Summary: 2 Stars
I love the Foodsaver vacuum sealer, but found these hard plastic containers are poorly designed. What they didn't consider was refridgerator storage and stacking. The rounded tops prevent stacking and saving space on an already cramped fridge shelf.
The vacuum valve at the top cannot get food on it, because it's impossible to clean. That problem is addressed on the less expensive Foodsaver containers that simply have a rubber flap that seals once the a vacuum in achieved. But even they have that slightly rounded top again, making is impossible to stack.
The problem is solved by Foodsaver's new "Freshsaver" containers, which are smaller, but flat on top.
I have a whole cabinet filled with Foodsaver containers that are more trouble than they're worth.
Customer Review: Foodsaver Made in China Canisters get an "F"
Summary: 2 Stars
Foodsaver, I understand, will soon be facing a new competitor with its canister line. Finally!
Unfortunately, Foodsaver, chose to market its canisters like baggies and other non-environmentally friendly consumable products. I have to completely agree with many of the other reviewers here. They have a great concept, but because the canisters are not polycarbonate they do not hold up even in lukewarm water. And if you put them in the dishwasher, as endorsed by the manufacturer, even on the top rack, they will crack almost immediately. This is obviously why they do not guarantee the product.
With my first purchase of several different types of the Foodsaver canisters, I followed the manufacturer's instructions and only put the canister pieces of each product in my dishwasher (even on the upper rack and on the low-energy saver cycle!) However, each canister ended up with very fine cracks and therefore could no longer hold a seal, which is the whole point of using them! Now, they're admitting that they don't hold a seal when stored in the freezer!
I can put almost any inexpensive plastic store-bought container in my dishwasher and have it last forever. There is no excuse for the exceedingly poor quality of Foodsaver's canisters.
