Setup, Compatibility & Care
No complex setup is required for the Olympia Square Chip Basket; it is ready to use immediately. For the best results, always ensure you have compatible greaseproof paper liners on hand, as the open-wire design is not intended for direct contact with loose, oily foods. To maintain the finish, load the baskets into the dishwasher at the end of service. Avoid using abrasive scouring pads, as these can scratch the finish and compromise the metal over time. Store the baskets in a dry, ventilated area to prevent water spots or rust buildup from prolonged dampness.
