Product Information

Full details

Its key benefit lies in its **airtight seal** and secure 'Clip 'n' Lock' lid, ensuring food stays fresh longer and preventing spills. A potential caveat is the 600ml capacity, which may be small for larger meal portions. This set includes 3 BPA-free plastic containers with a 600ml capacity each, featuring vibrant blue lock-down clips for a secure closure and a touch of color.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these containers truly airtight?

Yes, the 'Clip 'n' Lock' lid is designed to create an airtight seal, helping to keep food fresh and prevent leaks.

What is the capacity of each container in this set?

Each container in this set has a capacity of 600ml.

Can I freeze food in these containers?

While the plastic is durable, freezing is not explicitly recommended. If you choose to freeze, be aware that plastic can become brittle at low temperatures. Avoid overfilling to allow for expansion.

How do I clean the containers?

They are dishwasher safe, but for optimal longevity of the seal, hand washing the lids with warm, soapy water is recommended. The containers themselves can be washed by hand or in the dishwasher.

Are the containers safe for use in the microwave?

Yes, they are microwave safe for reheating food. It's advised to leave the lid slightly ajar or vented during microwaving to allow steam to escape.

What does BPA-free mean for my health?

BPA-free means the plastic does not contain Bisphenol A, an industrial chemical that has raised health concerns. Using BPA-free containers ensures that no potentially harmful chemicals leach into your food.

Can I buy additional containers or lids separately?

Information on purchasing individual components is not available in the product description. This set includes 3 containers.

Are these containers stackable?

The product description does not specify stackability. However, many food containers of this design can be stacked when empty, especially if lids are stored separately or on top.

Troubleshooting

Lid is difficult to lock

Ensure the container rim and lid seal are clean and dry. Align the clips properly before pressing down firmly.

Container retains odors

Wash thoroughly with warm, soapy water. For stubborn odors, try soaking in a solution of baking soda and water for a few hours, then rinse well.

Plastic appears cloudy after washing

This may be due to minerals in dishwasher water. Try a dishwasher cleaner or hand wash with a mild detergent. Ensure the dishwasher drying cycle is not too hot.

Lid seal seems loose

Check for any damage or warping on the lid's silicone seal. If damaged, the sealing capability may be compromised. Ensure the lid is fully engaged all around.
