About Tatay Food Containers
You might think it’s hard to get excited about a plastic tub and our buyers – who’ve seen more than their fair share – were the same. Until they found this brilliant range from Spanish company Tatay. Our Buyer Lyndsey took some home to try, and after about a month, realised they were her go-to containers. She even uses one to take yoghurt to work – without any messy disasters. And her colleague Jane left one filled with water upside down on her desk – not ca drop escaped. Robust, durable, airtight, leakproof, versatile and stackable, they’re a fantastic kitchen basic you’ll find all sorts of uses for.
Robust and durable
Solidly constructed from BPA-free polypropylene, this robust container can cope with a bit of rough and tumble so it won’t leak if dropped and the solid base means it stays stable on flat surfaces. Designed with a coarse texture to ensure a firm grip and to reduce slipping and dropping, the container has a cloudy see-through finish so you can tell what’s inside at a glance, and there are helpful measurements on the side too.
Airtight and leakproof
The unique blue screw-top lid is easy to twist on and off, and creates an airtight and leakproof seal to prevent any spills and keep food fresher for longer, while the recess in the lid allows the container to be stacked with others. The compact size means it fits nicely into cupboards or bags, and can go in the fridge and freezer too so you can store cold foods. Heat-resistant up to 100°C and microwave safe, it’s ideal for transporting individual portions of soup and other hot foods for a packed lunch, ready to heat up when you’re hungry. And it doesn’t end there – this container can be used with non-food items as well, making it great for keeping all those little bits and bobs together, such as buttons, hair grips and stationery.

Works as it should. It stores food. Not much else to say!
I now have 14 of these in different sizes. Some have been given to me as presents. They are great for storing dry goods such as biscuits which are kept really fresh and crunchy, also very good for freezing but out of the 14 that I have they all, without exception, leak if you put liquids in them so you have to keep the container upright. Otherwise I am very happy with them and would buy them again.
Not watertight, so I assume not airtight either. This container had a small amount of liquid in it and ended up on its side in the fridge. It leaked. Fine if you just want a pot with a lid but no good for travelling with (or if you have an untidy fridge!)
The containers are airtight and leak-proof so we're sorry you experienced this. It might be that the lid wasn't threaded on correctly, but please be assured that as with all our items its covered under the terms of the three year guarantee.
I was excited to find screw top tubs that were to be leak proof - these are not leak proof as the thread is not good, it is extremely difficult to get the lid to be tight and threaded OK. Worked once and haven't managed to get the lid on secure again. I have tried and tried and tried!
Thank you for your review. The containers are airtight and leak-proof so we're sorry you experienced this. It might be that the lid wasn't threaded on correctly, but please be assured that as with all our items its covered under the terms of the three year guarantee
