How should I prepare my thermos for optimal insulation?
Fill your thermos with hot water from a kettle and let it stand with the lid off for 5 minutes. Then carefully pour out the hot water. Use extreme caution when handling hot liquids!

Is there a limit to how much food I can fit in my thermos?
Do not fill the thermos past the ridge below the neck or it might leak.

Using the thermos...
OmieBox is designed for kids 3-8 years old. To minimize and prevent any potential burns on small children, the thermos was carefully designed to maintain food at cooler temperatures than an adult might desire.

But we do have a few pro tips to make sure your thermos works as designed! First - always preheat your thermos with hot water. Second - opt for foods like soup or items with lots of sauce. Items such as quesadillas, chicken nuggets and pasta won’t stay warm very long.

What materials are in OmieBox? 
OmieBox is made of ABS, PP, food grade silicon, and 18/8 304 grade stainless steel. It is BPA free and meets all FDA and CPSIA safety requirements. 

Is OmieBox leakproof?
Yes. OmieBox has three leak-proof compartments which can hold up to 1 teaspoon of liquid each. Wet foods (soup, yogurt, dressing) should go inside the thermos.

Sub-sections created by using the divider are not leak-proof. The divider just meant to separate the peas from the carrots.

Is OmieBox dishwasher safe?
No. Handwashing is best. The high heat & harsh detergents used in dishwashers will damage your OmieBox. Gentle hand washing keeps your OmieBox in tip top shape!

How should I clean OmieBox?
Hand wash with warm soapy water and let everything dry completely. You should avoid leaving the whole OmieBox to soak in the sink. A simple wash and rinse is the best cleaning method.

How should I clean the seals?
There are two silicone seals in your OmieBox. There is one large square seal that goes around the perimeter of the box. The other is a round O-ring that goes around your thermos lid. Both need to be removed daily for cleaning. Wash in warm soapy water and let dry completely. Without daily cleaning, silicone is highly prone to mould growth which is irreversible and requires the part to be completely replaced. No biggie, we all get busy and forget sometimes. Should mould grow, just come to our website to buy spare seals - we’ll try to keep plenty in stock for you.

What if my OmieBox is leaking?
If your OmieBox is leaking, first re-install the lid seal or the O-ring gasket. 99% of the time it’s because these two items are installed improperly. Follow the installation instructions and double check that the gasket is smooth and even. Kinks or waves can cause leaking.

After packing food, close the lid and latch it. Be sure to use the palms of your hands to push along the entire surface area of the lid. This helps to engage the seal.

Did you accidentally put it in the dishwasher? If you did, then this could explain why it’s leaking. The dishwasher’s high heat could cause warping, which is why your box is leaking.
