The Black+Blum Stainless Steel Meal Prep Food Box Set of 3 gives you a full nestable set of steel boxes that are genuinely safe to put in the microwave, tested and approved by the Good Housekeeping Institute. Each box has a vacuum-sealed, airtight lid lock that keeps meals fresher for longer, and the lid can stay on while microwaving, which speeds up heating and helps prevent splatter. The three sizes nest inside each other for easy storage, and the set is dishwasher, oven and freezer safe throughout.
- 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 meals fresher for longer.
- 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.
- Nestable set of three: The three sizes nest inside each other for easy storage.
- Dishwasher, oven and freezer safe: Just not the lids in the oven.
What Customers Ask About This Product
Can I really put this in the microwave?
Yes, it's genuinely microwave safe steel, tested to extremely high standards and won't cause sparking.
Are there foods I should avoid microwaving in it?
Avoid foods that heat to extreme temperatures, like popcorn or sugar, as these can cause burn marks, and take care with oily or acidic foods like tomato soup.
How do I open it?
Push the button to release the lid lock, then pull the lid upward slowly rather than quickly.
Can I put it in the dishwasher, freezer and oven?
Yes to all three. The lid is top rack dishwasher only and isn't oven safe.
In our experience...
Stainless steel in a microwave isn't actually a universal no. It's specific metals and sharp edges that cause sparking, and this steel and shape are designed to avoid that entirely.
The lid lock vent is doing more than one job. It lets the lid stay on while microwaving, which both speeds up heating and stops splatters.
Burn marks aren't a safety issue. Oily or acidic food like tomato soup can mark the lid, but it won't affect how safely the box performs.
Certain foods genuinely aren't suited to it. Things like popcorn or sugar heat to extremes that can damage the box, so they're worth avoiding.
It's been independently tested, not just self-certified. It's been tested and approved by the Good Housekeeping Institute.

Dishwasher: Dishwasher safe, lid on the top rack only.

Cleaning: Wash all parts with warm soapy water before first use. Avoid bleach, chlorine-based or abrasive cleaners, which can dull the finish.
