FAQs
Are these containers BPA free?
Yes, LocknLock containers are manufactured using high-quality, BPA-free materials suitable for food storage.
Can I put the lid in the microwave?
You can leave the lid resting loosely on top to prevent splatters, but do not engage the locking tabs while in the microwave.
Will the containers leak if turned upside down?
When the four-side locking system is properly engaged, the containers are designed to be leak-proof.
What is the total capacity of the set?
The set includes containers with a total combined volume of 3020ml across the three pieces.
Is the silicone seal removable for cleaning?
Yes, the silicone seal can be removed from the lid for deep cleaning; ensure it is completely dry and properly reseated before next use.
Can these be used for long-term freezer storage?
Yes, they are specifically designed to withstand freezing temperatures without compromising the container integrity.
Troubleshooting
Lid is difficult to lock properly
Ensure the silicone seal is pushed fully into its groove and that there is no food debris obstructing the locking tabs.
Container feels stuck when nested
Ensure the containers are completely dry before nesting; trapped air or residual moisture can create a vacuum effect.
Stains or odors inside the container
Soak the container in a mixture of baking soda and warm water for several hours, then wash thoroughly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the longevity of your NestnLock containers, follow these usage guidelines:
- Pre-Use Wash: Always wash the containers with warm, soapy water before the first use.
- Locking Technique: Engage the locks by pressing down on the two shorter sides first, then the two longer sides.
- Microwave Safety: When microwaving, always release the locking tabs. Do not use for long-duration heating of high-oil or high-sugar foods, as these can reach temperatures that exceed the material's heat tolerance.
- Cleaning: All components are dishwasher safe. To preserve the integrity of the silicone seal, place lids on the top rack of the dishwasher.
- Storage: Nest containers of like sizes together to maintain their structural shape when not in use.
