FAQs
Are the glass bowls microwave safe?
Generally, glass bowls are microwave safe, but it is essential to check if the lids are also microwave safe. Plastic lids are often not recommended for microwave use due to potential warping or melting.
Can these bowls be used in the oven?
This set is typically designed for food storage and not for oven use. Using glass bowls in the oven can lead to breakage if not specifically rated for high temperatures.
How many bowls are in this set?
The set includes five handy fresh food trays in different sizes.
What types of food are these bowls best for?
They are perfect for storing leftovers, salads, sweets, pasta, cereal, lentils, popcorn, and many other food items.
Are the lids airtight?
The lids are designed to close securely, helping to maintain food freshness and prevent spills, but they may not be completely airtight.
How should I clean the lids?
It is best to hand wash the lids with mild soap and water and dry them thoroughly. Check product specifics for dishwasher safety, though hand washing is generally recommended.
Can I freeze food in these bowls?
While possible for some foods, it's generally not recommended to freeze liquids in glass bowls as they can expand and cause the glass to break. For solid foods, ensure there is ample headspace.
Troubleshooting
Lid does not seal properly.
Ensure the rim of the bowl and the lid are clean and free from debris. Check for any warping or damage to the lid.
Glass bowl cracked or chipped.
Discontinue use immediately and dispose of the damaged bowl. Contact customer support if the product is under warranty.
Food staining the glass.
Soak the bowl in warm, soapy water. For stubborn stains, try a paste of baking soda and water, let it sit for a few minutes, then scrub gently.
Water trapped under lid seal.
This can happen with some lid designs. Ensure the lid is oriented correctly and dry thoroughly after washing.
