FAQs

Is the lid microwave safe?

Yes, the BPA-free lid is generally microwave safe. However, it is always recommended to open the lid slightly or vent before microwaving to allow steam to escape.

Can I use this container in the air fryer?

Yes, the borosilicate glass container is suitable for use in air fryers, provided the temperature is within the 400°C limit and the container fits safely within the appliance.

How do I remove the silicone seal for cleaning?

The silicone seal can be gently pulled away from the groove on the lid. It is designed to be easily removed for thorough cleaning.

What is the maximum oven temperature for this container?

The borosilicate glass container can withstand temperatures up to 400°C in the oven.

What does 'thermal shock resistant up to 200°C' mean?

It means the glass can tolerate a temperature difference of up to 200°C between the container and its immediate environment without cracking. For example, a container at 20°C can be safely placed in an oven preheated to 220°C.

Is this container freezer safe?

Yes, the glass container is safe for use in the freezer. Ensure not to overfill it, as liquids expand when frozen.

Does the glass leach chemicals?

No, the container is made from BPA-free borosilicate glass, which is considered safe for food storage and does not leach harmful chemicals.

Troubleshooting

Lid is difficult to lock

Ensure the silicone seal is correctly positioned and free from debris. Check that the container is not overfilled, which can prevent the lid from seating properly.

Container leaks

Verify that the four locking tabs are fully engaged and that the silicone seal is clean and properly attached. Ensure the container is upright during transport.

Food smells or stains the container

While borosilicate glass is resistant, very strong pigments or odors can sometimes linger. Ensure the silicone seal is removed and cleaned separately. Thoroughly wash the container with warm, soapy water immediately after use.

Glass container cracks or breaks

Avoid sudden extreme temperature changes (thermal shock). Do not place a hot container directly onto a cold surface, or a frozen container directly into a very hot oven. Adhere to the specified temperature limits for oven use.

Pros and Cons

  • Durable borosilicate glass is resistant to stains, odors, and scratches.
  • Safe for a wide range of temperatures, from freezer to oven.
  • Easy to clean due to removable silicone seal and non-porous glass.
  • BPA-free materials ensure healthy food storage.

Cons

  • Requires care to avoid rapid temperature changes that could cause thermal shock.
  • Glass construction can be heavier than plastic alternatives.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The container is ready for immediate use. Ensure the lid's silicone seal is properly seated before closing to guarantee an airtight and leakproof seal.

Compatibility: This container is compatible with freezers, ovens (up to 400°C), microwaves, and air fryers. The lid is typically microwave and dishwasher safe, but always check manufacturer guidelines for specific lid components. It is BPA-free.

Care: For optimal longevity and hygiene:

  2. The glass container is dishwasher safe. Handwashing is also recommended for maintaining the glass's clarity and the lid's integrity.
  3. Allow the container to cool before placing it in a cold environment or vice versa to prevent thermal shock.
  4. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or scouring pads on the glass to prevent scratches.
