Glass food storage outperforms plastic in almost every meaningful way — it doesn't absorb odours, doesn't stain, goes straight from the freezer into a hot oven, and lasts indefinitely with proper care. The Joseph Joseph Nest Glass Storage 4-Piece Set gives you four borosilicate glass containers in a clever nesting design that stacks all four inside the largest for minimal storage footprint when not in use.
The set covers four practical capacities: 2.5L for large batches of stew, curry or leftovers; 1.3L for medium portions; 550ml for side dishes, sauces or packed lunches; and 130ml for small portions, condiments or individual snacks. Each container has a colour-coded snap-together lid with a pull tab that makes opening easy — and the lids clip together when nested so they never go missing. The borosilicate glass is thermal-shock resistant, meaning you can take a container directly from the freezer and put it in a preheated oven without risk of cracking — just remove the lid first, as lids are not oven-safe.
All four containers are freezer, microwave and dishwasher safe. Lids are top-shelf dishwasher safe. BPA-free throughout. For anyone switching away from plastic food storage — a natural move for a health-conscious Nairobi household — this set provides a complete, well-considered solution that takes up minimal drawer or shelf space.
Available at Red Rhino as part of the Joseph Joseph Kenya collection. See also the Nest Lock 5-Piece Storage Set for a plastic airtight alternative. Explore more kitchen and dining essentials at Red Rhino.
