Extended Product Information
FAQs
Is this container safe for oven use?
Yes, stainless steel 201 grade is heat-resistant, but it is primarily designed for warming and food holding rather than high-heat roasting.
Does the 500ml capacity refer to the brim or working capacity?
The 500ml designation refers to the total volume of the container when filled to the brim.
Are these containers stackable?
Yes, they are designed with a tapered edge to allow for efficient nesting when not in use, which saves significant storage space.
Can I use these for freezing acidic foods like tomato sauce?
Yes, the 201 stainless steel is corrosion-resistant and safe for standard food preparation and freezer storage.
Does this purchase include a lid?
No, this item is the container only. Please ensure you check for compatible lids if you require an airtight seal.
Troubleshooting
Container is stuck inside another pan
Do not pull forcibly. Run hot water over the outer pan to cause slight thermal expansion, which will help release the vacuum seal.
Water spots or cloudy finish after dishwasher cycle
Wipe with a clean, dry microfiber cloth. Using a rinse aid in your dishwasher can help prevent mineral deposits from appearing on the stainless steel surface.

Care Instructions:
- Initial Cleaning: Wash with warm, soapy water before the first use to remove any manufacturing residue.
- Daily Maintenance: These are dishwasher safe. For stubborn food deposits, use a soft nylon brush or sponge to avoid scratching the brushed finish. Avoid using harsh steel wool or abrasive metal scrapers.
- Storage: Ensure the pans are completely dry before stacking them for long periods to prevent water spotting or moisture buildup between units.
