FAQs

Are these jars freezer safe?

No, these storage jars are not designed for freezer use as extreme cold can affect the plastic.

Can I store hot food in these jars?

It is not recommended to store hot food directly in the jars. Allow food to cool to room temperature before storing to prevent potential warping or damage to the plastic.

How many jars are in this set?

This set includes a total of 5 storage jars: two 1.5 L, two 0.5 L, and one 2.1 L.

Are the lids interchangeable between different jar sizes?

The lids are designed to fit specific jar sizes within the set. While some sizes might appear similar, it's best to use the lid intended for each jar to ensure a proper seal.

What is the material of the jars?

The jars are made from food-grade SAN (Styrene Acrylonitrile) plastic, which is BPA-free.

Can I put these jars in the microwave?

No, these jars are not microwave-safe.

How should I store them when not in use?

Store them clean and dry, either nested if sizes allow, or stacked with lids on to prevent dust accumulation.

Troubleshooting

Lid does not seal properly

Ensure the rim of the jar and the inside of the lid are clean and dry. Check for any debris or damage on the sealing surface. Press down firmly on the lid to create a seal.

Jars appear cloudy after washing

This can sometimes happen in dishwashers with high heat settings. Hand washing with mild detergent is recommended for maintaining clarity. For existing cloudiness, try a gentle plastic cleaner or a vinegar-based solution (rinse thoroughly afterwards).

Stains on the plastic

For stubborn stains (e.g., from tomato sauce or turmeric), try soaking the jar in a mixture of warm water and baking soda for a few hours, or use a non-abrasive plastic cleaner. Rinse thoroughly.
