Full details

By utilizing the included manual hand pump to extract air, these containers significantly extend the freshness, taste, and texture of stored foods, though users should note that the manual pumping process requires a brief extra step compared to standard snap-lock storage.

FAQs

Can I put the lid in the oven?

No, the lids contain plastic and rubber components that are not oven-safe. Always remove the lid before heating the glass container.

Does the pump come with the set?

Yes, a manual hand pump is included in the kit for creating the vacuum seal.

Are these containers BPA free?

Yes, all materials used in the SPARES2GO storage containers are food-safe and BPA-free.

How do I know if the vacuum is sealed?

The lid will be firmly locked onto the base, and you will notice a slight resistance when trying to remove the lid before releasing the valve.

Can these be used in the freezer?

Yes, the thick glass is suitable for refrigerator and freezer storage.

Do I have to use the pump every time?

The pump is optional if you do not require a vacuum seal, but it is recommended to maximize the shelf-life of your food.

Troubleshooting

Container will not hold a vacuum seal

Ensure the silicone sealing ring is properly seated in the lid and check that the valve is free of food particles.

Lid is difficult to open

You must release the vacuum pressure by gently pressing or pulling the center valve on the lid before attempting to unclip the sides.

Pump feels loose during operation

Ensure the pump nozzle is centered perfectly over the lid valve and pressed firmly to create an airtight connection.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly extends food shelf-life by reducing oxidation
  • Thick, durable glass construction resists staining and odors
  • Leak-proof design is perfect for transporting soups or sauces
  • Integrated date dials eliminate guesswork regarding food freshness
  • Highly versatile with oven, microwave, and dishwasher compatibility

Cons

  • Requires manual effort to pump out air before storage
  • Requires proper lid alignment for an effective vacuum seal
  • Vacuum pump must be stored separately from the containers

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Before initial use, wash all components in warm soapy water. When sealing, ensure the silicone ring on the inside of the lid is clean and free of debris, as crumbs can prevent a vacuum seal from forming. The glass base is safe for oven and microwave use; however, always remove the lid before placing the container in an oven or microwave, as the vacuum valve and clips are not heat-resistant. When cleaning, the dishwasher is safe for all parts, but hand-washing the sealing ring occasionally can help maintain its elasticity and suction power.
