FAQs

What is the capacity of the Pick Box Snack?

The Pick Box Snack has a capacity of 500ml.

Is the Star Stopper necessary for microwaving?

Yes, the Star Stopper should be removed when microwaving. This allows steam to escape, preventing pressure buildup and splattering while the lid remains on.

Can I put the entire Pick Box Snack in the oven?

The Pick Box Snack is oven safe. Always check manufacturer's specific temperature limits, but generally, it is suitable for reheating or baking at moderate temperatures.

How do I best clean the silicone snack box?

It is dishwasher safe (top-rack recommended). For handwashing, use warm water and mild dish soap. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Is this snack box truly leak-proof?

The box is designed with a leak-proof construction when the lid is properly sealed. It is suitable for wet foods like yogurt or dips, but vigorous shaking or extreme pressure may test its limits.

What are the dimensions of the snack box?

The dimensions are approximately 14cm x 14cm x 6cm.

Can I pack hot food directly into the box from the oven?

Yes, the box is oven safe. Allow very hot food to cool slightly before sealing the lid, especially if using the air-removal function.

Troubleshooting

Lid is difficult to open or close.

Ensure there is no food debris around the rim or seal. Try opening/closing with clean, dry hands. Sometimes, a slight twist while pulling can help.

Snacks are not staying fresh.

Ensure the Star Stopper is properly sealed after removing excess air. Check that the main lid is securely fastened all the way around.

Silicone has retained a strong odor.

Wash thoroughly with warm, soapy water. For stubborn odors, try soaking in a mixture of water and baking soda, or run through a dishwasher cycle.

Box appears to be leaking.

Verify that the lid is completely and evenly sealed around the entire rim. Ensure no food particles are obstructing the seal. Check the silicone integrity for any tears.
