Hello. Thank you for reaching out to us. For the FoodSaver&reg; Preserve &amp; Marinate 3 Cup, 5 Cup, and 8 Cup Containers, the lids are not microwave‑safe and should be removed before reheating. Only the clear base can go in the microwave, and it&rsquo;s intended for reheating food. Both the base and the lids are dishwasher‑safe for easy cleaning. If you have any more questions, please reach out to us via our Contact Us form on our website. We&rsquo;re available Mon.-Fri. 9am - 5pm Eastern Time. Thank you! Foodsaver&reg; Consumer Care

Hello. Thank you for your inquiry. The FoodSaver&reg; Preserve &amp; Marinate Containers are designed to be stain-resistant, but some sauces, especially those with strong pigments, may cause slight discoloration over time. To minimize staining, we recommend rinsing or washing the containers soon after use. If you have any more questions, please reach out to us via https://www.foodsaver.com/support/contact-us or through LiveChat. We&rsquo;re available Mon.-Fri. 9am -5pm Eastern Time.&nbsp; Thank you!&nbsp; FoodSaver&reg; Consumer Care
