greenandlife 9 Inch 4PCS Divided Plates with Lids, Unbreakable Lightweight Reusable Wheat Straw Plate Set
Are greenandlife’s divided plates with lids a good everyday choice for kids’ meals and leftovers?
Yes, if you want lightweight, three-section plates for everyday meals and a cover for putting leftovers in the fridge. The four 9-inch plates are microwave- and dishwasher-safe, and their wheat-straw-and-PP construction is less fragile than ceramic if a child drops one. I’d choose them for a small household that wants foods kept separate, not as leakproof lunch containers. If you need a bigger batch or more compartments, the alternatives below fit those jobs better.
From the Amazon listing
- ✓Plates Double as Food Storage Containers with Lids: Come with high quality hard plastic lids that can double as food storage containers, reducing wasted food and the amount of dishes that need to be washed.

Our divided plates with Lids can be placed in the refrigerator to preserve leftovers or pre-made meals and food won't get mixed together

And they are stackable in refrigerators and cabinets to save space. Ideal present for Christmas, Birthday, Housewarming, Thanksgiving, Children's Day and Mother’s day etc
Are the sections useful for kids’ meals?
The three compartments keep a main and a couple of sides apart without adding extra dishes, which is the point if your child dislikes foods touching. The plate is 9 inches across, so think kid-sized everyday servings or a portioned meal rather than a large dinner platter. Its stated 1.5-inch depth gives the plate more capacity than a very flat divided tray, but it still isn’t a bowl for soup or saucy food.
Do the lids make these good for leftovers?
Each plate comes with a hard plastic lid that covers food for refrigerator storage, so you can save a meal without transferring it to another container. Treat the lid as a cover, not a guaranteed airtight or spillproof seal; keep the plate level and use a proper sealed container if you’re carrying it in a bag. For microwave reheating, remove the lid unless you know it is microwave-safe.
Will they stand up to everyday washing and use?
The plates are marked dishwasher-safe and microwave-safe, with a stated temperature resistance up to 248°F. Lightweight wheat-straw-and-PP tableware is a sensible alternative to breakable ceramic, but “unbreakable” is not a promise that it can’t crack, warp, or get scratched. I’d avoid abrasive scouring and sharp knife use on the plate, and replace one if it becomes damaged.
Are they easy to store?
The plates are stackable, and a 9-inch footprint is manageable in a kitchen cupboard or camper. The lids are useful for saving leftovers, but allow for them in your storage space too. For a larger household, four plates can disappear quickly between meals and the dishwasher.
How they compare
Four lightweight 9-inch plates with three sections and lids for everyday kids’ meals and fridge leftovers.
Three 1.5-liter meal-prep containers with clip-on, airtight lids and steam vents for reheating.
A 24-piece set of larger, five-section trays in four colors for families, schools, and group meals.
Who it suits
This set is for a parent who wants a small, reusable stack of divided plates for a child who prefers separate foods, with lids handy for fridge leftovers. It also works for adults who like portioned meals or snacks and want a lighter plate than ceramic.
What you give up
- Four plates are a modest household set, not a bulk supply for a big family, school, or party.
- Three sections and a 9-inch plate leave less room to separate a meal or serve larger portions than the Dandat trays.
- The lids are convenient covers, but they are not the choice for spill-prone food or dependable sealed transport.

Questions buyers ask
Are greenandlife divided plates dishwasher-safe?
Yes, the plates are dishwasher-safe. Check for cracks or warping as they get older.
Are the plates microwave-safe, and can I microwave the lids?
The plates are microwave-safe, with a stated temperature resistance up to 248°F. The lids are not identified as microwave-safe, so take them off before reheating.
Do the lids stay on, and are they leakproof?
They are hard plastic covers intended to help store leftovers, but don’t rely on them as airtight, leakproof lids. Keep covered plates level in the refrigerator; use a sealed food container for transport.
Are wheat-straw plates durable enough for kids?
They are lightweight and less prone to shattering than ceramic, which makes them practical for children’s everyday meals. They can still be damaged by hard knocks, sharp utensils, or rough cleaning, so handle them as reusable tableware rather than indestructible plates.
Can wheat-straw plates go through repeated dishwasher cycles?
These plates are dishwasher-safe, but repeated heat and washing can wear reusable tableware over time.
Are these plates stackable, and how many sections do they have?
Yes, they are stackable, and each plate has three compartments. The 9-inch size suits everyday child portions and smaller meals; choose a larger tray if you routinely serve more food or want extra sections.
