How do you open it? I saw tips on opening it from the bottom, but I bet the manufacturer put more logic in the opening from the top.

The best way I have found to open these containers is to pinch the tab attached and pull directly up. If that doesn't work, I push the small connecting tabs down with one half of a tweezers or a sharp knife, then pull up on the tab.

There are two small tabs inside that you pull up on. That removes small piece of the plastic enabling you to remove a small amount of powder s you need it and the slide it closed when not in use so if the container gets flipped accidently there is not a ton of powder that could fall out when you unscrew the top for the next use.

I had trouble with this as well and finally cut the plastic off completely. I never had this issue in the past. Why they changed the packaging I wish I knew....annoying !!!

I agree with the other answer. I had a similar problem but discovered it took a little more effort--and a little squeezing in the right place. If you turn the back so you can see (from the side) the small clips (there are 4 of them) that are holding the back on and squeeze there, on opposite sides, and pull, it opens much more easily that way.

The box is difficult to open. I ended up putting them in another box. There is a hinge and the top lifts off the bottom. The trick is to open it without spilling all the clips.

You can open it but it's very complicated and the bottom part broke off last time we tried.

It is very odd to open I had trouble when I received mine also. Instead of using the lip on the lid, grab the smooth sides beside the lip and pull to open.

I had the same issue with a different model. I forced it open slightly manually once and it was ok. I know it sounds crude. But it worked in the past.

I don't have mine open now, but recall that the secret was to remove more screws and wires, which I think allowed separating the desired section. I initially tried what looked like the easy way with just a few screws, but the opening was not large enough to take it out that way, because protruding parts prevented mine from sliding out. If that's not clear enough, I can open mine again to refresh my memory.

Push it down and you have to hold it down. Pull it all the way up and it clicks into stay open.

If you look for the outline, you will see that the bottom layer of plastic has a section that can be punched out to open it. Then you can rotate the top layer to open and close it.

Hold the battery door open up to the hinge, than gently pull top up than the bottom. Or vice versa you should see one end has an opening.Good luck

There is a tiny slit on the top that you just pry open. No high tec opening. Just pull from that slit and the back will come off. I use my fingernail to get in it. Hope this helps

Sorry, but the only thing I can think of is to take it to a locksmith. They can open it for you.

yeah, a little tricky. There's a small tab to the left, just move it out a little and the compartment will open up. Others have had the same problem.

Same here; frustrating it does not open even with thorough cleaning and fresh batteries; I'm thinking of returning to step lever to open lid. How hard is that?

Well for me it's somewhat difficult to open. Maybe with constant opening and closing would help.. I hope this helps you.

I've used a butter knife between the bottom of the lid and the side of my thumb to pry it open. Just be careful not to spill it everywhere!

There is a little white silicon button along the side on top. Pull back on it with your finger tip and it lets air into the container so you can open the lid.
