4. Maintenance and Care

Proper care will ensure the longevity and appearance of your melamine bowl.

• Cleaning: The bowl is dishwasher safe. For best results, place it on the top rack. Alternatively, hand wash with warm, soapy water and a non-abrasive sponge or cloth.
• Drying: Dry thoroughly after washing to prevent water spots.
• Storage: Store in a dry place. Stacking bowls is acceptable, but consider using soft cloths or paper towels between them to prevent scratches if stacking frequently.
• Avoid:
  • Do not use abrasive cleaners, steel wool, or scouring pads, as these can scratch the surface.
  • Do not use in a microwave oven, conventional oven, or on a stovetop. Melamine is not designed for high heat cooking.
  • Avoid direct contact with open flames or extremely hot surfaces.

5. Troubleshooting

While the APS Melamine Bowl is a simple and durable product, here are solutions to common concerns:

• Stains: For stubborn food stains, try soaking the bowl in warm, soapy water for a period before washing. A paste of baking soda and water can also be gently applied and rinsed.
• Scratches: Minor scratches can occur over time with heavy use. To minimize scratches, avoid using sharp utensils directly on the bowl's surface and follow proper cleaning instructions.
• Breakage: While melamine is highly durable and shatter-resistant, extreme force or impact can cause it to chip or break. Discontinue use if the bowl is damaged to prevent injury.
