FAQs

Is the W&P Porter Bowl truly spill-proof?

The Porter Bowl is designed to be leak-resistant with its rigid lid and silicone strap, making it suitable for most everyday meals. However, for extremely liquidy foods like thin soups, it's advisable to keep the container upright during transport.

What is the capacity of the Porter Bowl?

The Porter Bowl has a capacity of 1 liter, which is approximately 4.25 cups.

Can I cook food in the Porter Bowl?

The Porter Bowl is microwave-safe for reheating food. It is not designed for cooking food from raw ingredients.

How should I clean the silicone strap?

The silicone strap can be cleaned in the dishwasher or by hand with warm, soapy water. Ensure it is completely dry before reattaching.

What materials is the Porter Bowl made from?

The Porter Bowl is constructed from plastic and silicone. It is BPA-free.

What are the dimensions of the Porter Bowl?

The Porter Bowl has a diameter of 19 cm and a height of 76 mm (approximately 7.5 inches in diameter and 3 inches tall).

Does the lid detach completely?

Yes, the lid is detachable from the bowl, and the silicone strap is also designed to be secured around both.

Troubleshooting

Lid is difficult to close securely

Ensure the contents are not overfilled. Check that the silicone strap is correctly aligned and pulled taut around the bowl and lid. Gently press down on the lid while fastening the strap.

Minor leaks occurring

While designed to be leak-resistant, very liquidy foods might still seep from the seal if tipped excessively. For such items, consider using an additional container or bag for transport, or ensuring the bowl is kept upright at all times.

Container has a lingering odor

Wash thoroughly with warm, soapy water. For stubborn odors, try filling the bowl with a mixture of baking soda and water, letting it sit for a few hours or overnight, then washing again.

Strap feels loose

The silicone strap is designed to stretch. Ensure it is properly seated in the grooves on both the lid and the base. If the strap appears damaged or excessively stretched, consider contacting customer support for a replacement.

Care:
