FAQs
What is the capacity of the TRIXIE Isothermal Snack Tin?
The dimensions are 10x10x12 cm. While not specified in liters, this size is best suited for snacks or smaller portions rather than full meals.
Is the entire snack tin dishwasher safe?
Yes, the TRIXIE Isothermal Snack Tin is dishwasher safe. However, hand washing the stainless steel body and PP cap is recommended for extending the product's lifespan.
What materials is the snack tin made from?
The pot is made of 100% stainless steel, and the cap is made of 100% PP (Polypropylene).
How long does it keep food warm or cold?
The insulation performance will vary depending on the initial temperature of the food and the external environmental conditions. Pre-warming or pre-chilling the container can help optimize temperature retention.
Can I use this for liquids like soup?
Yes, it can be used for semi-solid foods like soup. Ensure the lid is securely fastened to prevent leaks, although it is designed to be leak-resistant, not fully waterproof for thin liquids.
Where is this product made?
This product is made in China.
Troubleshooting
Food not staying warm/cold as expected.
Ensure the lid is tightly secured. Pre-warm (for hot food) or pre-chill (for cold food) the tin before use as per care instructions. The duration of temperature retention depends on the initial food temperature and ambient conditions.
Difficulty opening or closing the cap.
Ensure the cap and the rim of the tin are clean and dry. If it feels stiff, try running the cap under warm water briefly. Do not force the cap, as this could damage the seal.
Lingering odors or stains.
Wash thoroughly with warm, soapy water. For stubborn odors, try filling the tin with a mixture of baking soda and water, letting it sit for a few hours, then rinsing and drying completely. Ensure the item is completely dry after washing to prevent odors.
