FAQs

Is the container safe for freezing?

While the container is BPA-free, it is not specifically designed for freezing. Freezing temperatures can make plastic brittle, potentially leading to cracks.

Can I use this container in the oven?

No, this food container is not oven-safe. It is designed for refrigerator storage and microwave reheating only.

How do I ensure the 'Clip 'n' Lock' lid is truly airtight?

Ensure the rubber seal is clean and properly fitted. Align the lid evenly on the container and firmly press down on all four sides until the clips engage securely. You should feel a firm click.

What are the dimensions of the 1600ml container?

The container has a height of 12cm. Specific width and length dimensions can be found in the detailed product specifications.

How should I clean the lid mechanism?

The lid can be cleaned in the dishwasher or by hand with warm, soapy water. Pay attention to the grooves where the rubber seal sits to remove any trapped food particles.

Are these containers stackable?

Yes, the design of these containers allows them to be stacked efficiently, both with and without lids, to save space in your kitchen.

What is the warranty period for this product?

Please refer to the retailer's specific warranty information, as it can vary. URBN-CHEF typically offers a standard manufacturer's warranty against defects.

Troubleshooting

Lid not sealing properly

Ensure the rubber seal is clean and correctly seated in the lid groove. Check for any food debris or damage to the seal. Make sure the lid is fully and evenly clipped on all sides.

Container appears cloudy or scratched

Cloudiness can sometimes occur after dishwashing; try washing with a gentler detergent or by hand. Minor scratches are normal wear for plastic containers; avoid using abrasive scrubbers to prevent further scratching.

Odors persist after washing

Soak the container and lid in a mixture of baking soda and water for a few hours, or fill with coffee grounds overnight. Ensure the container is completely dry before storing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The container is ready for use immediately upon purchase. Ensure the lid is properly aligned with the container rim before closing the 'Clip 'n' Lock' mechanism to achieve an airtight seal.

Compatibility: This container is designed for food storage. It is microwave-safe for reheating (ensure lid is vented or slightly ajar) and dishwasher-safe for easy cleaning. It is not intended for oven use or freezing temperatures that could cause brittleness.

Care Instructions:

  1. Cleaning: Wash with warm, soapy water or place on the top rack of your dishwasher. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads that can scratch the plastic.
  2. Microwaving: When microwaving, lift one corner of the lid or remove it entirely to allow steam to escape. Do not microwave for excessively long periods.
  3. Storage: Store with the lid slightly ajar or separate to prevent odors from lingering and to maintain the seal's integrity.
