Troubleshooting
Lid is difficult to snap on
Ensure the rim of the bowl and the groove of the lid are completely clean and dry of any oils or food residue.
Lid feels loose after microwave use
Never microwave the lid. If the lid has been heated, allow it to cool down completely before attempting to seal, as the material may temporarily warp under heat.
Discoloration from tomato-based sauces
Clean the bowl immediately after use with warm, soapy water. If staining persists, a paste of baking soda and water can gently help lift marks.

- Microwave Use: Always remove the lid before heating to avoid warping or damage to the seal.
- Dishwasher Care: The container and lid are dishwasher-safe; for best results, place on the top rack.
- Storage: When not in use, these bowls nest inside each other to minimize storage footprint.
