How should I clean the container?

What does BPA-free mean?

What are the dimensions of this container?

The dimensions are approximately H: 12.5 cm x W: 21.0 cm x D: 21.0 cm.

Can the silicone seal be removed for cleaning?

Troubleshooting

Container lid does not seal tightly

Ensure the silicone seal is properly seated in the groove of the lid. Check that all four clips are fully engaged and locked into place. Make sure there are no food particles obstructing the seal.

Food retains odor after washing

Soak the container and lid in a solution of baking soda and water, or run it through a hot dishwasher cycle. Ensure the silicone seal is thoroughly cleaned and dried.

Container is stained

For stubborn stains (e.g., from tomato-based sauces), try soaking the container in a mixture of water and mild bleach or vinegar for a few hours before washing. Avoid abrasive cleaners that could scratch the plastic.

Clips feel stiff or difficult to fasten

Ensure the container and lid are clean and dry. Sometimes, a slight misalignment can cause stiffness; try re-aligning the lid before closing the clips. Ensure no food debris is caught in the clip mechanism.
