Ikea solves the broken food storage lid/container problem by selling separately
Reposting from the mildly infuriating sub. I just found out that ikea sells their food storage lids and containers separately! I plan on checking them out next time I purchase food storage containers because its SO wasteful to have a broken lid and having to replace the whole thing or throw them out because you can't use one without the other. Finally, a solution to the dreaded worn out food storage lids!
*Edit*
Some people have stated that some of their ikea products are no longer available so they cannot replace the lids.
The popular *core* products [such as "365+" according to one comment] stay the same and *some* specialty colors and sizes are phased out. I'm waiting to hear more feedback on this issue, and maybe I'll try to avoid the ones that are *specialty*. Reviews on the ikea food storage containers durability seem to be mixed, with some people saying that the glass parts of the containers last a long time, while others say that they chip or break more easily than pyrex/snapware. Please feel free to weigh in with your opinions.
Quite a few people have pointed out that pyrex, glasslock and snapware will replace your lids for *free* if you contact customer service- TIL and this is the *real* frugal win IMHO (as long as you don't mind waiting I guess)
