Choosing food storage containers is often about balancing how many meals you prep each week with how you want those meals separated. The four glass sets here take three different tacks: two use multi-compartment designs, one is a stackable six-pack, and one leads with locking lids and a larger bundle. The price spread runs from $24.99 to $39.64, so the cost difference is real. But the more important difference is how each set supports your typical lunch.
Quick take: If you want the lowest price and a variety of divided containers, the FIT Strong & Healthy 3-pack with 1-, 2-, and 3-compartment containers is the place to start. Need more multi-compartment containers? The 4-pack with 2- and 3-compartment containers is a middle-price step up. The 6-pack with grooved bases is for stackers, while the 20-pack with locking lids is the top-priced set here, aimed at those who want leak-resistant seals.

How to decide
- Choose the 3-pack if you want the lowest entry price and the flexibility to grab a single, double, or triple compartment container.
- Choose the 4-pack if you want more containers but prefer keeping the cost and cabinet footprint moderate.
- Choose the 6-pack if stackability and a rectangular shape matter more than compartment dividers.
- Choose the 20-pack if you prioritize leak-resistant locking lids and don't mind paying the highest price for the set.
The sets in detail
20 Pack Glass Meal Prep Containers 36oz & 14oz Locking Lids BPA Free Leak Proof
If leak-proof is your watchword, this is the set that says it most clearly. It pairs 36oz and 14oz containers with locking lids, and it uses an airtight seal with a clip-on closure. The glass is borosilicate. At $39.64, it is the most expensive option in this comparison, so you are paying for the locking-lid feature set and the borosilicate glass. The trade-off is the price: if you only need three or four containers, you can spend less with the other options.
6 Pack Glass Meal Prep Containers with Grooved Base, 6 Stackable BPA Free Glass
This six-pack centers on easy stacking. Each container has a grooved base, and the set is stackable, which is useful for fridge organization when you batch-cook. You get six glass containers and six lids, so the ratio is balanced. The cream color is distinct from the black and gray lids on the other sets in this guide. At $35.99, it's the second-highest price here, and the set uses rectangular containers, focusing on the grooved base rather than compartment dividers. If you want to keep a side dish separate from the main in the same container, the multi-compartment designs from the other sets will be a better fit.
1 & 2 & 3 Compartment Glass Meal Prep Containers with BLACK Lids (3 Pack, 35 oz)
Flexible layout at the lowest price. This FIT Strong & Healthy set includes three glass containers: one with a single compartment, one with two, and one with three. That lets you grab the right container for the meal, from a simple salad to a full plate with sides. The price is $24.99, the lowest in this group. Features include airtight lids, freezer safe, microwave safe, and dishwasher safe. The limitation is the count: with only three containers, you'll be washing more frequently if you prep a full week of lunches. If that works with your routine, it's the cheapest entry point.
2 & 3 Compartment Glass Meal Prep Containers with GRAY Lids (4 Pack, 32 oz)
This four-pack bridges the price and layout gap. It sits at $29.99, between the $24.99 and $35.99 options, and it centers on two- and three-compartment containers. That gives you more containers for weekly prep than a three-pack, and the gray lid color sets it apart from the black-lid set. The lack of a single-compartment container is the main trade-off: if you sometimes want an undivided bowl for a big salad, you'll need to reach for the three-pack that includes a single-compartment container instead. For someone who mostly eats composed meals with sides, this four-pack is a solid middle ground.
Bottom line by use case
- Pick the $24.99 three-pack when you want the lowest entry price and a single, double, or triple compartment in one order.
- Pick the $29.99 four-pack when you want more than three containers without going above the middle of the price range.
- Pick the $35.99 six-pack when stackability and a rectangular shape are your priorities.
- Pick the $39.64 20-pack when locking-lid leak protection is the main concern.
If you're watching upfront cost and want to match containers to different meals, start with the $24.99 three-pack. If you know you'll need more than three containers, the $29.99 four-pack adds container count without jumping past the mid-price range.
