Ordered 2 sets of these containers. One arrived today. Opened cardboard box & experienced the horrible odor on so many plastics. Opened closed container & stronger odor. On products advertised safe for food storage? Phoned hsn cs said no bpa in them. Phoned kinetics-transferred to 2nd person-asked her name-Kelly who said must have absorbed odor on boat coming here???? I said how does an odor get into a sealed container?? She said they are propylene & silicone. I have ordered loc & loc, $ store food storage containers & NEVER experienced such a smell. There is no way I will use these for food. This is hsn’s own line of products.

the bpa free thing is a bit of a scam.
Plastic companies only replaced BPA due to consumers avoiding it. They did not replace it w/ a safer compound and some researchers feel the replacement is in some ways worse.

If you smell something those toxins are going into your lungs as well as whatever is stored in the container.

I stick w/ glass.
