FAQ
1. Can I clean stove knobs in the dishwasher?
Most stove knobs are not dishwasher-safe. Check your stove’s manual to confirm. Hand washing is generally safer and more effective.
2. What if the knobs are discolored or stained?
Discoloration might occur from prolonged exposure to heat or certain cleaning agents. Soaking in a baking soda and water mixture can help lift stains.
3. How do I clean knobs that don’t come off?
If the knobs are non-removable, use a toothbrush dipped in soapy water to carefully scrub around the edges. Avoid getting excessive water into the appliance.
