FAQs

Are these pots microwave safe?

No, these pots are not designed for microwave use. Microwaving may warp or damage the plastic.

Can I freeze contents in these pots?

While they can be used for short-term freezing, it's best to avoid freezing highly liquid or water-rich items, as expansion can compromise the seal. Ensure adequate headspace if freezing.

What is the volume of these pots?

Each pot has a volume of 118ml, which is equivalent to 4 fluid ounces.

Are the lids and pots the same color?

The product is described as 'Multicolor', suggesting variations in lid and pot colors within the pack, rather than a uniform color scheme for each individual unit.

How many pots are in a multi-pack?

The exact number of pots in a multi-pack can vary. Please refer to the product packaging or listing for the specific quantity.

Are these pots reusable?

Yes, while often used for single-use convenience, they are made of durable material and can be washed and reused multiple times.

What is the primary benefit of the material used?

The primary benefit of the food-grade polypropylene material is that it is BPA-free, non-toxic, odorless, and strong, ensuring food safety and preventing unwanted taste transfer.

Troubleshooting

Lid not sealing properly

Ensure the rim of the pot and the lid are clean and free from debris. Press down firmly around the entire edge of the lid to create a seal. If the lid appears warped, try submerging it briefly in warm water, then reshape and dry before reattaching.

Pot feels brittle after washing

Avoid using harsh detergents or abrasive cleaning tools. Ensure the pot is not exposed to excessive heat during washing or drying. If used in a dishwasher, ensure it's on the top rack and avoid high-heat drying cycles.

Odor transfer from previous use

Wash thoroughly with warm, soapy water. For stubborn odors, soak the pots in a solution of baking soda and water for a few hours before washing again. Ensure they are completely dry.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These pots require no setup. Simply remove them from their packaging and fill with your desired contents.

Compatibility: Suitable for storing a wide range of food items, including cold and room-temperature sauces, dips, dressings, yogurts, and small snacks. Not recommended for hot liquids or prolonged freezing of moisture-rich foods, as extreme temperatures can affect material integrity or cause condensation.

Care: While designed for convenience, these pots can be washed and reused. Hand wash with mild soap and warm water. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scrubbers. Ensure the pots and lids are completely dry before storing to prevent moisture buildup. They are top-rack dishwasher safe, but hand washing is recommended for longevity.
