A clean and organized kitchen starts with how well your cabinets are managed. For many people, their cabinets may be well organized, but the containers are overflowing with food in the refrigerator. Without breaking the bank, ExpandaLid – a set of innovatively designed borosilicate glass containers – offers a smarter, more premium way to upgrade the cabinet and food storage experience in your kitchen.
ExpandaLid’s food storage containers come in a set of three. They are effectively designed for anyone who has ‘ever struggled with overstuffed cabinets or mismatched lids and containers.’ Each of the three containers – available in as many sizes – is provided with collapsible and expandable lids.
The collapsible lid allows the containers to nest neatly inside one another (with the lid intact), reducing clutter and maximizing cabinet space. When expanded, the lids create additional storage space to store leftover food, which at times overspills because it’s too much to comfortably fit in one container and too little to store in two separate containers. With the ExpandaLid, instead of dirtying an extra dish, you can just expand the lid and store everything in a single container; it’s that easy.
The containers are made from high-borosilicate glass, and their lids use LFGB‑certified platinum food-grade silicone, making them safe even to store and reheat children’s food. Both the containers and lids are microwave and freezer-safe.
When it’s time to wash, just put them in the dishwasher and you’re set. ExpandaLid describes the product as a “household safe design,” suitable for storing, reheating, and freezing without hassle. I wouldn’t mind using them for a packed lunch either.
According to the eponymous company, ‘ExpdandaLid is designed to flex with your lifestyle — literally!’ While the collapsible lid design allows the containers to store conveniently in each other, preventing the common frustration of separated lids and containers.
The expanding lid, on the other hand, lets you store more in the extra space, instantly created, without the overspills. “Love the ability to fit overfilled food in the container, using ExpandaLid’s expanding ability,” one early user shared.
Designed to keep your food fresh while ensuring your cabinet stays tidy, ExpandaLid launches on Kickstarter today. You can preorder the set of three for an Early Bird price of $41. The set will retail for $50 eventually.
