The Black+Blum Square Microwaveable Multifunction Food Box is stainless steel that's genuinely safe to put in the microwave, tested and approved by the Good Housekeeping Institute. A vacuum-sealed lid lock keeps it 100% leak proof and airtight, and the lid can stay on while microwaving, which speeds up heating and prevents splatter. It comes in two sizes for meal prep, food storage, or a daily lunch box, and is dishwasher, oven and freezer safe throughout.
Features
- Genuinely microwave safe steel: Tested and approved to go in the microwave, not something most stainless steel containers can claim.
- Leak proof, airtight lid lock: Keeps food fresher for longer and prevents spills.
- Lid can stay on while microwaving: The lid lock vent lets steam release, so it heats faster than other steel boxes and won't splatter.
- Stackable for easy storage: Boxes and lids stack neatly together.
- Dishwasher, oven and freezer safe: Just not the lid in the oven.
