How much weight can the upper tier hold?

The upper tier is designed to hold up to 15 large plates securely.

Is the bamboo treated to be waterproof?

Yes, the bamboo is treated at high temperatures, making it waterproof and moisture-resistant for use in a kitchen environment.

Can I put this in the dishwasher?

No, this bamboo dish drainer should not be put in the dishwasher. Hand washing with a damp cloth and allowing it to air dry is the recommended cleaning method.

How do I store the dish drainer when not in use?

The dish drainer features an X-shape design that allows it to fold flat to approximately 3 cm in height, making it easy to store in compact spaces.

Is the bamboo material safe for food contact?

How often should I oil the bamboo?

It is recommended to treat the bamboo with food-grade mineral oil periodically, perhaps every few months or when the wood appears dry, to maintain its condition.

Troubleshooting

Drainer feels unstable

Ensure the drainer is placed on a flat, level surface. Check that the X-frame is fully open and locked into position.

Water pooling on lower tier

This is normal as water drips from the upper tier. Ensure dishes are not overcrowding the lower tier, allowing air circulation. Consider placing a drying mat beneath the drainer.

Bamboo shows signs of drying out or cracking

Apply a food-grade mineral oil to the bamboo surface and allow it to absorb. Ensure the drainer is not stored in excessively dry conditions.

Mildew or mold spots appear

Clean the affected area with a mild soap and water solution, then dry thoroughly. Improve air circulation around the drainer and ensure it dries completely between uses.
