The OXO POP Food Storage Containers have recently had an upgrade to their design, with one major change being that they are now completely safe to clean on the top shelf of a freestanding or integrated dishwasher.
I found the container really easy to clean by hand, with the curved edges preventing any build-up of food residue. The POP lid also comes apart, splitting into three pieces for easy cleaning. It does take a bit of patience to reattach the rubber seal after washing, but it’s a practical way to ensure no food residue is left behind.
Having washed the container both by hand and on the top shelf of my slimline dishwasher, I have yet to notice any obvious signs of use. The container has not warped, cracked or become misshapen in the dishwasher and there are no visible stains or scratches.

Price: are the OXO Good Grips POP Food Storage Containers worth it?
At the time of writing, the OXO Good Grips POP range costs from £8 (starting with the smallest size), with the price fluctuating depending on the size or shape you go for.
There’s no getting away from the fact that this is fairly costly for an individual, low-capacity container, but if you can afford to invest in a selection from the range, they make a versatile choice for getting organised in your kitchen. From their premium quality to the slimline stacking and one-handed airtight seal, they boast several unique features that easily make them worth the extra cost.
They’re also available in a set of five for £55 too, though this is obviously a higher outlay than other storage options - plus, you may want to pick the shapes you want to make your own bespoke set.
