FAQs
Is this lunchbox leak-proof?
The Take A Break series is designed for solid foods like sandwiches, fruit, and snacks. It is not designed to be liquid-tight, so avoid storing soups or dressings inside.
Can I use this in the microwave?
This model is intended for storing cold or room-temperature food. Please check the bottom markings of your specific container for microwave compatibility icons.
What are the dimensions of the lunchbox?
The Large 1500ml version is designed to accommodate multiple sandwiches while remaining slim enough to slide into standard work bags and backpacks.
How do I remove the divider?
The divider can be lifted straight out of the grooves on the side walls. You can reposition it or remove it entirely based on the size of the items you are packing.
Is the material BPA-free?
Yes, Mepal products are manufactured using high-quality, food-safe plastics that are free from BPA.
Troubleshooting
The lid clips feel loose.
Ensure that there is no food debris caught in the seal or on the clip hinge, then re-engage the clips firmly.

Soak the container in warm soapy water for 30 minutes, or use a mixture of water and baking soda to neutralize scents.
