Keep the
good going.
A few everyday habits.
Always follow the instructions for the exact model. Steel grades, coatings, handles and construction need different care.
Knives & kitchen shears
Use a stable cutting surface. Keep fingers clear of blades, wash and dry carefully, and store sharp edges securely. Confirm cleaning and sharpening instructions for the exact blade and handle.
Cookware
Check the suitable heat sources, oven limits and utensil recommendations for your specific pan or pot. Do not assume handles, coatings or lids share the same temperature limit.
Wood & mixed materials
Avoid prolonged soaking unless the product instructions say otherwise. Dry after cleaning. Ask about finishing oils or treatments suitable for the exact wood and food-contact use.
Before the dishwasher
Ask whether the exact product is dishwasher safe. Appearance or the word stainless alone does not establish dishwasher compatibility.
