Troubleshooting
Food not staying warm/cold for expected duration.
Ensure the lid is screwed on tightly to create an airtight seal. Try pre-heating or pre-chilling the container for a few minutes before adding food.
Lid is difficult for a child to open.
Ensure the lid is properly aligned and not cross-threaded. Practice opening and closing with the child. For very young children, a parent may need to assist initially.
Container has a lingering odor.
Wash thoroughly with warm, soapy water. For persistent odors, try filling the container with a mixture of baking soda and water, letting it sit overnight, then washing again. Ensure the container is completely dry after washing.
Difficulty cleaning the lid threads.
Use a small brush (like a toothbrush) to clean the threads of the lid and the container opening. Ensure all food particles are removed before washing.
