Using this KitchenAid set is a breeze. The kitchen towels are great for drying hands, wiping countertops, or cleaning up spills. Just grab one and get the job done. The oven mitt and pot holder are your go - to for handling hot pots, pans, and dishes. Make sure to grip the silicone - printed part for a secure hold. When it comes to maintenance, always wash the items in cold water on a gentle cycle with similar colors. Use only non - chlorine bleach. The kitchen towels can be tumble - dried on low heat, but remember to take them out right away. The oven mitt and pot holder should be laid flat to dry. Avoid ironing any of the items. Also, don't use these items if they are damaged, as they may not provide proper heat protection.
