Product Information

Full details

The Mepal Multi Bowl Cirqula 3000ml is an ideal storage solution for home cooks and meal-preppers who prioritize space efficiency and versatility. Its primary benefit is its all-in-one functionality, allowing you to store, heat, and serve meals from the same container; however, users should note that while the lid is airtight, it should be removed or left ajar before microwave use to avoid pressure buildup.

Can I stack different sizes of Cirqula containers?

How do I ensure the seal remains airtight?

Troubleshooting

Ensure the rim of the container is clean and free of food debris, as even a small crumb can interfere with the seal.

  • Stackable rectangular footprint saves space
  • Easy to clean and dishwasher safe

Setup, Compatibility & Care

This container requires no special setup. Before first use, ensure the container and lid are washed with mild dish soap. When storing, stack multiple containers of the same series to maximize vertical cabinet space. For cleaning, the bowl and lid are dishwasher safe, though placing the lid in the top rack is recommended to prevent warping from high heat. Always ensure the bowl is clean and dry before applying the lid to maintain the airtight seal. When using in a microwave, always remove the lid entirely to allow steam to escape safely.
