Heat resistant up to what temperature?1 answer
Hi, just checking what's the temperature it can withstand, considering I'll probably pour boiling water over it when draining pasta etc. Thanks!
Jenny - Canberra(4 years ago)
There is no temperature stated for these sorry, Jenny. They are designed to be used as you would use a colander in your kitchen though, so boiling water is fine. It's best to keep them out of ovens and microwaves though.

Hi is the external measurement of 31.7cm from outer handle edges? What is the measurement from the direction across the outside bowl? I have a tight storage space for this. Thanks 1 answer
See above

G'day Mel,
I've just measured this and can confirm they are 31.7cm from the outside handle edge to the outside handle edge. They're 26cm across from front to back.

Is it microwave safe?1 answer
Can the bowel be used in the microwave
Ann - Brisbane(8 years ago)
Good question Ann!
I've just researched the types of plastics used in this product (TPE & PP) and have only really found information about PP which states that whilst it may not be detrimental to the product to heat it in the microwave, it may present health problems so its probably best not to use these in the microwave.

How many litres? 2 answers
I would like to know how many litres the bowl and colander can hold
Jodi - Crabtree(8 years ago)
G'day Jodi - After some high-level number-crunching and a conversation with the supplier, I'm going to say it's around 4 litres. That's approximate, but there doesn't seem to be any more reliable info available. Hope that helps. Cheers, Paul

G'day Pam,
I've just spoken with Companion, and they've confirmed that the Pop UP Colander and Bowl is indeed BPA free.
