Washing Up Bowl FAQs
Yes they do!
Yes, these bowls are likely to scratch a ceramic or butler sink, the orange bowl is much less likely to though as it has a hardwearing outer coat finish. An easy fix is to use a silicone matt underneath.
All our stainless steel products come with a 15 year warranty. Glass and silicone isn’t covered, but we sell spare silicone lids for Seal & Go Range, spare silicone bases for the Lunch Bowls and tabs for the Bowls & Prep & Store Range.
While there doesn't seem to be a standard sink size or washing up bowl size, our bowl is a bit bigger and deeper than some plastic ones. The best thing is to get our your tape measure and see if it will fit that way. It's 364mm long, 314mm wide and 150mm tall. If you're really on the fence and unsure but want to give it a try, we do accepted returns as long as it's unused and in it's original packaging.
Hot soapy water is best, the plain steel bowl can safely go in the dishwasher but not the orange powder coated bowl. While never getting as grimy and stained as a plastic washing up bowl, the steel can become dull after a time. If this happens you can bring back the shine with distilled vinegar. We don’t recommend using bleach on stainless steel. Stainless steel can discolour with prolonged contact with water, these stains are pretty hard to get rid of so make sure your bowl is dry at the end of your washing up session.
my steel bowl is hygenic.Its a good size and fits my granite sink but I have put some mats under it to avoid scratching.Its a noisy bowl but I always know if my husband is doing the dishes because I can hear him from the other room clanging away.My tap drips sometimes and it clangs in the steel bowl.Its quite spectacular.

I am very pleased with my steel washing up bowl; the rim is comfortable when picking up the bowl
I am very pleased with my steel washing up bowl; the rim is comfortable when picking up the bowl, and it is a little deeper than my previous plastic one (which split). I have been surprised by how noisy the metal cutlery makes. I would have liked advice included with it on the best way to clean it, and are there any liquids I should not use.
I'm pleased the steel is a decent thickness so the bowl doesn't feel flimsy. My family now joke about who will inherit it, because we expect it to outlast me!!

Great piece of kit
This is slightly smaller than the tatty old plastic one this replaced, but this is beautifully made, looks great and still does the job. We don't have a dishwasher, so I need a dish bowl. Very pleased with my purchase.
