FAQs
What are the exact dimensions of the tray?
The external dimensions are 16.5cm x 13cm, with an internal base dimension of 14.5cm x 11cm.
Is this tray waterproof?
Yes, the glazed finish is designed to be waterproof and prevent water from seeping through to your surfaces.
Can I use this outdoors?
While it can be used outdoors, it is primarily designed for indoor use. Prolonged exposure to freezing temperatures may impact the glaze.
How do I remove water stains?
A mixture of water and a small amount of vinegar on a soft cloth usually removes mineral deposits effectively.
Is the material heavy?
It has a solid feel consistent with high-quality glazed ceramics, providing stability for your plants.
Troubleshooting
Water pooling on the underside of the tray
This is likely condensation or overflow; ensure you empty the tray after watering and keep the exterior of the tray dry.
Pot wobbles inside the tray
The pot base is likely wider than the 14.5cm x 11cm internal dimension; use a smaller pot or verify the pot's base footprint.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Prevents water damage and soil mess on furniture
- Sophisticated blue glazed finish adds decorative value
- Sturdy construction for long-term indoor use
- Easy to clean surface material
Cons
- Limited to smaller pots due to specific 14.5cm x 11cm internal base
- Rigid material may scratch surfaces if slid aggressively
- No drainage holes, meaning plants should not sit in standing water for extended periods
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup is straightforward: simply place the tray on a level, stable surface and center your plant pot within the internal base area.
Compatibility Check: Before purchase, measure the base of your pot. If your pot has a diameter or footprint larger than 14.5cm by 11cm, it will not sit flat inside the tray.
Care Instructions:
- Clean regularly with a soft cloth and mild soap to maintain the shine of the glaze.
- Avoid using abrasive scouring pads, which could scratch the glazed surface.
- Inspect the underside periodically to ensure no moisture has been trapped between the tray and the furniture surface.
