FAQs

Are the lids microwave safe?

No, the lids are hand wash only and are not suitable for microwave, oven, or dishwasher use. Please remove the lid before microwaving the glass container.

Can I use the containers in the oven?

The glass containers are designed for microwave reheating and freezer storage. While they are made of borosilicate glass, oven use is not explicitly recommended by the manufacturer. Always remove the lid before placing the container in a microwave or oven.

How do I remove the silicone seal for cleaning?

Gently pry the silicone seal away from the lid's groove with your fingers. It should lift out easily. Re-insert it by pressing it back into the groove, ensuring it's fully seated.

What is the capacity of each container?

Each container in this set has a capacity of 1040ml.

Are these containers stackable?

Yes, the rectangular design allows them to be stacked efficiently in your refrigerator or freezer to save space and maintain organization.

What temperature range can the glass containers handle?

The borosilicate glass containers can withstand temperatures from -20°C (-4°F) up to 120°C (248°F).

Are the lids BPA-free?

Yes, the lids are made from BPA-free plastic.

Troubleshooting

Container lid is difficult to open or close.

Ensure the silicone seal is clean and properly aligned. Slight pressure may be needed for the snap-lock mechanism to engage securely.

Food appears to be leaking from the lid.

Verify that the lid is securely snapped on all sides and that the silicone seal is intact and correctly placed. Ensure the container is not overfilled.

Glass container cracked or chipped.

Inspect the container carefully. If damaged, discontinue use to prevent injury. Contact customer support if the damage occurred under normal use.

Container has retained odors or stains.

While borosilicate glass is resistant, very strong odors or pigments may require a deeper clean. Try soaking the container in a mixture of water and baking soda or white vinegar for a few hours before washing.
