Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up your strawberry-themed caddy is straightforward: simply place it on a flat, stable surface within reach of your primary food preparation area. No assembly is required. To maintain the finish and structural integrity, wipe the interior and exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid submerging the unit completely if the material is porous, and ensure it is dried thoroughly after cleaning to prevent any buildup. Keep the unit away from abrasive scrubbers that might damage the strawberry-themed exterior print.
