Troubleshooting

Lid not sealing properly

Ensure the silicone seal is clean, dry, and correctly positioned. Check for any food debris or damage to the seal. Ensure latches are fully engaged.

Food still cold after oven reheating

Confirm the oven temperature and time are appropriate for the food type. Ensure the lunch box was placed centrally in the oven. Note that dense foods may take longer to heat through.

Difficulty opening latches

Ensure the lunch box is not overfilled, which can put pressure on the lid seal. If the seal is new or has been recently washed, it might be slightly stiff; try opening and closing it a few times.

Rust spots appearing

While the stainless steel is rust-resistant, prolonged exposure to certain corrosive substances or inconsistent cleaning can cause minor spotting. Clean thoroughly with a mild abrasive cleaner or baking soda paste and rinse well.
