Product Information

Full details

The Jean-Patrique Silicone Food Storage Containers Set is designed for busy home cooks and meal-preppers looking to maximize kitchen efficiency through smart storage. These containers offer the significant benefit of a collapsible design that shrinks to one-third of their size, helping to declutter small cabinets and pantries. While their flexible silicone construction is perfect for saving space, users should note that the lids are made of hard plastic, which does not collapse, requiring a bit more dedicated space for the lid stack compared to the container bodies.

FAQs

Are these containers safe for the dishwasher?

Yes, they are fully dishwasher safe for both the silicone containers and the lids.

Can I use these containers in the freezer?

Yes, they are designed to be freezer-safe, allowing for versatile food storage.

Do I need to remove the lid to microwave food?

No, the lids feature a convenient vent that should be opened during microwave use, allowing you to heat food without removing the lid entirely.

Is the material BPA-free?

Yes, the containers are made from high-quality, BPA-free, food-grade silicone.

How small do they get when collapsed?

The containers collapse to approximately one-third of their original height, making them very compact for storage.

Will these leak if I store soup?

The lids are designed to be leak-proof, provided they are pressed on firmly and correctly sealed.

Troubleshooting

Lid feels difficult to snap on

Ensure the container is fully expanded; if the silicone base is partially collapsed, the lid will not seat correctly.

Stubborn food odours remain

Soak the containers in a solution of vinegar and water or baking soda for 30 minutes before washing.

Lid vent seems stuck

Gently rinse the lid under warm running water to clear any food residue that may be obstructing the vent mechanism.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly saves cupboard space when collapsed
  • Easy to clean and dishwasher safe
  • BPA-free and non-toxic materials ensure food safety
  • Microwave-safe vent prevents mess during heating
  • Durable enough for freezer and fridge storage

Cons

  • Lids do not collapse, taking up more space than the containers
  • Silicone can sometimes retain strong food odours if not cleaned thoroughly
  • Flexible walls can be slightly harder to clean after holding oily foods

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up your containers, simply pop the base outwards to expand to full capacity. Ensure the lid is pressed firmly on all sides to engage the airtight seal.

Care Instructions:

  • Cleaning: They are dishwasher safe, though hand-washing with mild soap is recommended to extend the life of the silicone seals.
  • Odour Removal: If you store particularly pungent foods like garlic or onions, soak the containers in a mixture of warm water and baking soda to neutralize odours.
  • Microwave Use: Always ensure the vent is open before placing the container in the microwave to allow steam to escape safely.
  • Storage: Store in a dry place. Ensure the containers are completely dry before collapsing them for storage to prevent any moisture buildup.
