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 genu-
ine wood.
The top can be used as a cutting board. Knife
marks will be visible but will not seriously dam-
age 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.
