FAQs

Are these containers truly airtight?

Yes, the 'Clip 'n' Lock' lid system combined with a rubber seal is designed to create an airtight and leak-proof seal for optimal food preservation.

Can I put the lid in the dishwasher?

It is generally recommended to hand wash the lids to preserve the integrity of the rubber seal and locking mechanism over time. However, if placing in the dishwasher, use the top rack and a mild detergent.

What is the temperature range for microwave use?

The containers are microwave safe for reheating food. It is advisable to vent the lid or remove it entirely to prevent pressure buildup from steam.

How do I clean stubborn stains or odors?

For stubborn stains or odors, try making a paste with baking soda and water, apply it to the stained area, let it sit for a few hours, then wash as usual. Alternatively, soak in a solution of equal parts white vinegar and water.

Are there different sizes available?

Yes, URBN-CHEF offers these food plastic storage containers in various sizes to accommodate different storage needs. Please check product listings for available volumes.

What does BPA-free mean for my food?

BPA-free means the plastic does not contain Bisphenol A, a chemical that can potentially leach into food. Using BPA-free containers ensures a safer storage environment for your food.

Troubleshooting

Lid is difficult to lock

Ensure the rubber seal is properly seated and free of debris. Check that the container rim is clean and dry. Try pressing down firmly on the lid while engaging the clips.

Container retains odors

Wash thoroughly with warm, soapy water. For stubborn odors, try soaking the container in a mixture of baking soda and water, or white vinegar and water, before washing.

Plastic appears cloudy after washing

This can sometimes occur in dishwashers with harsh detergents or high heat. Try hand washing or using a gentler dishwasher cycle. Ensure the 'dishwasher safe' symbols are followed.

Seal seems loose

Inspect the rubber seal for any damage or wear. Ensure it is correctly positioned within the lid groove. If damaged, replacement seals may be necessary if available from the manufacturer.

  • BPA-free construction ensures food safety.
  • Convenient for both cleaning (dishwasher safe) and reheating (microwave safe).
  • Durable construction for everyday use.
  • Clear design allows for easy identification of contents.

Cons

  • Lock-down bits come in specific colors, limiting color choice for the entire container.
  • May not be suitable for very long-term freezer storage without potential brittleness in extreme cold.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: The URBN-CHEF Food Plastic Storage Container requires no assembly. Simply wash before first use.

Compatibility:

  • Dishwasher: Top-rack recommended for best results.

  • Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, which can scratch the plastic.
