Product Information
Full details
The Bodum CANTEEN Storage Jar set is designed for home cooks and organizers looking to declutter their pantries with a clean, minimalist aesthetic. With a versatile 6.8L total capacity across four distinct sizes, these BPA-free containers excel at keeping dry goods like coffee, pasta, and nuts fresh and visible. One caveat to keep in mind is that while they are highly durable and dishwasher-safe, the rectangular plastic design is intended primarily for pantry storage rather than heavy-duty transport, so handle with care when filled.

FAQs
Are these jars safe for use in the microwave?
These jars are designed for storage. While made of durable plastic, it is recommended to avoid using them in the microwave to preserve the shape and seal integrity.
Can I store liquids in these containers?
While the lids are airtight for dry goods, they are not designed to be 100% leak-proof, so we recommend storing dry pantry staples only.
What are the exact dimensions of the jars?
The set includes a variety of sizes (0.5L, 1L, 1.2L, and 2.6L) to accommodate different volumes, allowing for flexible storage of everything from small spice portions to large bags of flour.
Are these BPA-free?
Yes, all components of the Bodum CANTEEN set are constructed from BPA-free materials.
Can the lids be washed in the dishwasher?
Yes, all parts, including the detachable lids, are dishwasher safe.
Do these containers nest when empty?
Due to their rigid, high-quality structure, the jars are stackable but do not nest inside one another when not in use.
Troubleshooting
Lid feels difficult to remove or seal.
Ensure the lid gasket area is clean of food particles and the lid is aligned straight with the jar opening.
Cloudy appearance after washing.
This is often due to hard water deposits; wipe with a soft cloth dampened with white vinegar to restore clarity.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up your CANTEEN jars is straightforward: simply wash all components with warm soapy water before the first use. Since the lids are detachable, ensure they are fully seated onto the rim to achieve the best seal. When stacking, ensure the weight is distributed evenly to maintain stability. For care, these containers are dishwasher safe on the top rack. To maintain the long-term clarity of the plastic, avoid using steel wool or highly abrasive scrubbers during manual washing. Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct heat sources to prevent potential warping of the plastic over time.
