Do not use the masher on very hard, uncooked items or to force through heavy materials; it is intended for boiled potatoes and soft vegetables. Although stainless steel is durable, avoid aggressive impacts against hard surfaces. Clean and dry thoroughly after washing to preserve the finish and hygiene.
