FAQs

Are these containers truly leak-proof?

Yes, the premium quality airtight lids are designed to seal tightly, providing zero leaks or spills for most food types.

What is the capacity of this container?

This container has a capacity of 24oz, which is equivalent to approximately 680ml.

Can I use these containers for hot food?

Yes, they are safe to use in the microwave for reheating food. It's advisable to vent the lid slightly during reheating.

Are the containers safe for children?

Yes, they are made from 100% food-grade, BPA-free plastic, making them safe for all users, including children.

How should I clean the containers?

They are dishwasher safe (top rack recommended). For best results and longevity of the seal, handwashing with mild soap and warm water is preferred. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Can these containers be used for freezing?

Yes, they are safe for freezer storage. They are designed to withstand low temperatures without warping.

Are these containers stackable?

While their round shape allows for some nesting, they are primarily designed for individual meal storage. Stacking many filled containers might compromise stability.

Troubleshooting

Lid is difficult to close tightly

Ensure the rim of the container and the lid are clean and free of food debris. Check that the container is not overfilled.

Container retained odor after washing

Soak the container in a solution of water and baking soda or white vinegar for a few hours, then wash again. Ensure thorough drying.

Container warped after microwave use

Ensure you are only using the microwave for reheating, not cooking. Vent the lid slightly during reheating. Avoid excessive microwave times.

Seal seems less effective over time

Handwashing and proper storage (not stacking tightly with lids on) can help maintain seal integrity. Consider replacing containers that show significant wear.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent airtight seal prevents leaks and keeps food fresh.
  • Durable and robust plastic construction for long-term use.
  • BPA-free and food-grade materials ensure safety.
  • Microwave, freezer, and dishwasher safe for maximum convenience.
  • Versatile for various storage needs, from meal prep to leftovers.
  • Promotes portion control and organized eating habits.

Cons

  • Plastic material may not be suitable for those preferring glass or metal containers.
  • Extended, frequent high-heat exposure in dishwashers might eventually affect seal integrity over time.
  • Round shape may not be ideal for stacking as efficiently as rectangular containers in some storage spaces.
  • Can potentially stain with strongly colored foods over many uses.
  • The 680ml (24oz) volume might be insufficient for very large meal portions.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

No specific setup is required. Ensure the container and lid are clean before first use.

Compatibility:

  • Microwave: Safe for reheating food. It is recommended to vent the lid slightly.
  • Freezer: Safe for storing food at low temperatures.
  • Dishwasher: Safe for top-rack cleaning. For optimal longevity of the seal, handwashing is recommended.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Wash with mild soap and warm water. A damp cloth can be used for exterior cleaning. Avoid abrasive cleaners that can scratch the plastic.
  • Storage: Store with lids loosely placed on top or separately to allow air circulation and prevent the seal from being permanently compressed.
  • Usage: Do not expose to open flames or direct high heat sources beyond microwave reheating.
