Caring for simulated wood top
The simulated wood top can be used as a utility
work surface for most kitchen jobs. It is stronger
and more easily cleaned than genuine wood.
The top can be used as a cutting board. Knife
marks will be visible but will not seriously damage
top. Hot items from the oven can be placed on
the top.
Clean with warm, soapy water. For dried-on
foods, use a scouring pad.
