Troubleshooting

Compartments won't stay in place

Ensure the base of the compartment is correctly seated within the grooves of the main box. The silicone is flexible, so a firm push usually secures them.

Food tastes or smells off after storage

Thoroughly wash the box and all compartments with soap and water, paying attention to any residue. For persistent odors, you can try leaving the box open in a well-ventilated area or using a baking soda paste. Ensure it's completely dry before next use.

Water not draining from compartments

Verify that the drainage slits on the bottom of the affected compartments are clear and not blocked by food debris. Ensure the box is placed on a level surface so gravity can assist drainage.

Box feels sticky or greasy after washing

This can sometimes occur with silicone. Try washing with a stronger detergent or a mild degreaser, or a paste of baking soda and water. Rinse thoroughly and ensure complete drying.
