3.3 Recommended Uses
- Kitchen & Pantry: Store canned goods, spice jars, snack pouches, juice boxes, and other food items.
- Fridge & Freezer: Organize produce, dairy products, frozen breast milk bags, and popsicles. For breast milk bags, lay them flat to freeze, then store vertically in the bins for easy access and rotation (newest to oldest).
- Cabinets & Drawers: Keep toiletries, cosmetics, craft supplies, baby accessories (diapers, teethers, bottle brushes), and small household items tidy.
4. Maintenance
4.1 Cleaning
To clean the storage bins, wash them by hand with mild soap and warm water. Avoid using harsh chemicals, abrasive sponges, or dishwashers, as these can damage the clear plastic and reduce its lifespan. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely before reuse or storage.
4.2 Storage
When not in use, the bins can be stacked to save space. Store them in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent material degradation.
5. Troubleshooting
5.1 Scratches on Surface
Minor scratches can occur with regular use. To minimize scratches, avoid dragging the bins across rough surfaces and use soft cloths for cleaning.
5.2 Odor Retention
If bins retain odors from stored food, wash them thoroughly and allow them to air dry completely in a well-ventilated area. A solution of baking soda and water can also help neutralize persistent odors.
