FoodSaver Preserve & Marinate Containers

No, these containers are specifically designed to be compatible with FoodSaver handheld vacuum sealers. They will not work with the larger, countertop vacuum sealing systems.

The marinate mode uses a pulse-vacuum cycle that repeatedly draws air out and releases it, which helps open the pores of the food to absorb marinades in minutes rather than hours. It is a more active process than the continuous vacuum seal used for long-term storage.

Yes, the container bases are microwave-safe. However, you must remove the lid before heating, as the vacuum seal mechanism and lid components are not designed for microwave use.

They are made from Tritan plastic, which is highly resistant to stains and odors. While they are much more durable than standard plastic containers, it is still best practice to wash them promptly after storing highly pigmented foods.

Each lid features a built-in vacuum indicator. When the container is properly sealed, the indicator will depress, giving you a clear visual confirmation that the air has been removed.

Yes, they are designed to be stackable when sealed and nestable when empty. This makes them an excellent choice for maximizing space in crowded kitchen cabinets or refrigerators.
