Product Information
Full details
The Maxcook Insulated Food Jar is designed for professionals, students, and travelers who want to enjoy home-cooked meals while on the go. Its key benefit is its reliable vacuum insulation that keeps food at temperature for 4 to 6 hours, providing a convenient alternative to fast food. One caveat to keep in mind is that the thermal retention is limited to 6 hours, so it is best suited for daily commutes or short outings rather than all-day excursions.

FAQs
Can I put this in the dishwasher?
No, this product should be hand-washed to preserve the vacuum seal and the integrity of the finish.
How long will my soup stay hot?
The jar is designed to maintain temperatures for 4 to 6 hours depending on initial temperature and ambient conditions.
Can I store the jar in the freezer?
It is not recommended to store the food jar in the freezer, as it may damage the vacuum insulation.
Is the lunch bag waterproof?
The bag is insulated, but it is not fully waterproof. It is intended to contain spills and provide insulation, not to be submerged.
What material is the jar made of?
The jar is constructed with high-quality stainless steel for both durability and thermal efficiency.
Can I use this for carbonated beverages?
It is not recommended to use this for carbonated drinks as pressure buildup can cause the lid to leak or become difficult to open.
Troubleshooting
Food is not staying hot long enough
Ensure you are pre-heating the jar with boiling water before adding your food.
Lid feels difficult to remove
Ensure the lid was not overtightened while the contents were extremely hot, as air pressure changes can create a vacuum seal.
Leakage around the rim
Check the silicone seal inside the lid for debris and ensure the lid is screwed on perfectly straight.
