FAQs

The tangerine and flower design is a durable print integrated into the enamel finish.
Can I store the caddy under the sink?

Troubleshooting
Lingering odors inside the container
Ensure the caddy is emptied daily and wiped clean with soapy water after each use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the caddy is straightforward; simply place it on a flat, stable surface within your primary workspace. No assembly is required. Regarding care, the enamel surface should be cleaned using warm water and mild dish soap. Use a soft sponge to avoid scratching the design or the enamel coating. Do not submerge the caddy in a dishwasher, as the high heat and harsh detergents can damage the exterior floral pattern and the integrity of the finish. Always ensure the bin is completely dry before placing new compostable materials inside to prevent moisture buildup.
