Are these suitable for hot liquids like soup?

What is the exact volume of these containers?

These containers have a volume capacity of 473.176 ml, ideal for standard portion sizes.

Do these containers nest when empty?

Yes, the containers are designed to nest inside each other when not in use, which helps save cupboard space.

Troubleshooting

Lid feels difficult to snap on.

Ensure both the rim of the container and the lid seal are clean and free of food debris.

Lid becomes misshapen after microwave use.

Always remove the lid or place it loosely on top during microwave heating to prevent pressure buildup and warping.

Container is stained by colored foods like tomato sauce.

Soak the container in a mixture of warm water and mild dish soap immediately after use to help lift pigments.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Secure airtight lids prevent leaks
  • Space-saving stackable design
  • Microwave and freezer compatible
  • Ideal for batch cooking and portion control
  • Professional black aesthetic

Cons

  • Not suitable for conventional oven use
  • Hand-washing recommended for maximum lifespan
  • Fixed 473ml capacity may be too small for large main courses

Setup, Compatibility & Care

These containers are ready to use straight out of the box. Before the first use, it is recommended to rinse them with warm, soapy water to ensure cleanliness. When placing lids on the containers, press firmly around the edges until you hear the seal engage to ensure an airtight closure.

For daily care, while the containers are designed for durability, you can extend their lifespan by hand-washing with a soft sponge rather than using harsh abrasive scrubbers. Avoid placing these containers in a conventional oven or under a broiler, as the material is not heat-rated for these environments. If storing in the freezer, leave a small amount of headspace at the top of the container to allow for food expansion.
