Troubleshooting

Lid is difficult to seal or remove.

Ensure the rim of the container and the lid are clean and dry. For stubborn lids, try slightly warming them (e.g., brief exposure to hot tap water) or gently flexing the lid edges.

Container appears warped after microwaving.

Verify that the container is placed correctly in the microwave and avoid overheating food. Ensure only the container, not the lid, is used for microwaving if the lid is not specifically designed for it. ECONX containers are rated for microwave use, but prolonged, excessive heat can affect plastic.

Food smells or stains persist after washing.

For stubborn odors or stains, try soaking the container in a mixture of baking soda and water for a few hours, or wash with a mild bleach solution (ensure thorough rinsing afterward).

Container is leaking.

Check that the lid is properly aligned and firmly pressed onto the container rim. Ensure there are no food particles or debris obstructing the seal.
