Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up your space, measure your counter or service tray depths; the 140mm height is tall enough to prevent most cutlery from tipping over while remaining short enough to allow for easy access.
Regarding care, while the unit is dishwasher safe, it is recommended to occasionally soak the basket in a food-safe sanitizing solution if you notice mineral buildup from hard water. Avoid using abrasive scouring pads, as these can create micro-scratches on the surface where residue and bacteria may accumulate. If using the basket in front-of-house, a quick daily wipe-down with a clean, damp cloth is sufficient to maintain the white finish.
