I plan to put in dining area next to kitchen. How can I clean if it gets greasey?

It would be very difficult. Could take it down and swish in sudsy water, I guess. Be easier to buy a new one EXCEPT to hard to put together.

The shade is made of a tightly woven plastic materia that should clean up fairly easy. The crystals are attached with loops that are like the rings that hold our keys together. It is difficult to remove them unless you do what I did. I used fishhook ear rings to attach the rings to the lamp. This would not be a good idea with kids encaustic the crystals could get broken. But I can remove them and clean them when I need to.

I wouldn't if there is any chance for it to get greasy. You would have to hand clean the crystals on it and then I'm not too sure what you would clean the shade with. It's a beautiful light but to be around grease...would not recommend.

This is made of a very fragile cloth with flocking. I would not put it anywhere near a kitchen with grease in the air. The most one could do with cleaning with would be a light microfiber duster. Even the crystals are very easy to chip and smudge, so I don't handle it without gloves.

Don't take i apart to clean it, just put hot water & soap in a pan/cup and blend it for a few seconds then rinse and dry (unplug to dry!!).

Lightly sand it and just wipe clean. That's what I did. My cabinets are amazing!

I would use one of those scratchy cleaning cloths first, then oil it well. Heat it some to help it sink in. Afterwards only clean with water, swish out the food with the scratchy pad, dry, re-oil and you should be good to go.

I would recommend you empty it every time. If I just have a small area to clean I just add enough water/soap that I think I will need.

It is safe to use a scouring pad (or steel wool for more stubborn stains) and regular dish soap. This should not damage the nonstick finish. You can also clean the pan by boiling soap water in the pan for 10-15 minutes. After that, you can throw away the water, let the pan cool and then scrub the pan with a heavy duty scrubber.

I just use a damp cloth. It's not real wood so furniture polish would not be absorbed. It would leave it oily.

It looks as though you can wipe it - just not sure if grease or anything gets on it, if you can scrub hard??? I would try and ask the seller, if you can. Mine is not in the kitchen.

Grease will get hung up in it. It not made for that purpose .......also it will take out too much air out of the kitchen .......will cause negative air pressure

The BEST way is to wipe it out w/paper towels upon rinsing. Avoid "scratchy" cleaners always, but you can remove past buildup w/those "safe for Teflon" dishwashing sponges. Hope this helps!

I don't use it in a kitchen and therefore no grease. However, it does not come with any kind of filter, so I would definitely get one of those metal grease filters and install it somehow.

It's very easy to clean. Just wipe it with a damp or wet cloth or sponge. Air dry or use a kitchen towel.

no! kitchen type grease can be removed with TSP, then rinsed and painted over. Plain old scuff marks, etc can be, especially with an oil based primer.

Clean ups a piece of cake. Just use a wet towel while it's still hot will break up the stuck on grease. Yes there's a drop tray.

After unplugging, while still warm, I use a very damp paper towel to wipe off grease, holding down over crusted parts to soften up. Then a sponge with soapy water. Wipe down and then air dry. Never had a problem. Not necessary to scrape using utensil. Cleaning sounds like a hassle, but this could not be easier!

Just wiping it out with dish soap and water. To shine I use a little olive oil.Love this sink. I will never go back to stainless.

I would use a microfiber towel and then condition. If your furniture is near the kitchen then I'd consider cleaner with the leather cleaner first
