Setup, Compatibility & Care
The caddy requires no assembly; simply place it on a flat, stable surface in your kitchen. To maintain the finish, wipe the exterior with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid using harsh abrasive scrubbers that might scratch the decorative produce artwork. If you choose to use liners, ensure you select 2L or 3L biodegradable bags for the best fit. For optimal hygiene, rinse the interior with hot, soapy water after every emptying to prevent organic residue buildup.
