FAQs
Is this caddy dishwasher safe?
It is recommended to hand wash the caddy to preserve the enamel finish and the decorative print.
Can I use compostable liners with this caddy?
Yes, standard small-sized compostable food waste liners can be used with this caddy, provided they fit the 2L dimensions.
Will the paint fade over time?
The enamel is designed for durability, but keeping the caddy away from direct, high-heat sources and using non-abrasive cleaning methods will keep the design vibrant.
Is the lid airtight?
The lid is designed to rest securely to disguise contents and control odors, but it is not technically airtight.
Can I store the caddy outside?
It is designed for indoor kitchen use; exposure to harsh outdoor elements could damage the enamel over time.
Troubleshooting
Stubborn food residue sticking to the bottom
Fill the caddy with warm soapy water and let it soak for 15 minutes before gently wiping with a soft sponge.
Noticeable odors escaping
Ensure the lid is fully seated after each use and wash the caddy more frequently during warm weather.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the caddy is straightforward: simply place it on a flat, stable surface in your kitchen prep area. It does not require assembly or power. To maintain the finish, clean the caddy using a soft cloth and mild, soapy water. Avoid using harsh abrasive scourers or metal brushes, as these can scratch or damage the enamel coating. Ensure the interior is thoroughly dried after washing to maintain hygiene, and avoid letting excessively wet, acidic waste sit in the caddy for more than 48 hours to preserve the integrity of the material.
