I've had no trouble with moisture, however, I don't use my cannisters for flour or sugar!!! I've been using them cookies and stuff and have found no moisture. Where do you live? I live in FL and if there's going to be moisture it'd be here. Hope this helps. Bernice S.

I do not own this item. The canister set was given as a Bridal Shower gift. I would use a hair dryer to blowout any water residue and let it sit for 24 hours before I used it again. Or you can insert a clear plastic bag with a twist tie if you have any concerns.

yes. the bottom of the canister also cracked from the moisture and humidity.

I washed mine and yes I do use it, however I have not have an issue with the moisture. I've only had mine since Christmas. So far so good. I did let it set for about 3 days before using and dried it out with paper towels afterwards.

No problem. Wash by hand or in the dishwasher. Check for dried on residue if it's not washed right after use.

I have put it in the dryer one time after washing but it takes a while to dry. Now I just take it to the dry cleaners and have them take care of it. To me it is worth the 20 dollars to get it dry cleaned.

I washed mine on delicate cycle and tumble dried it. I took it out of the dryer while it was still partly damp and air dried it. It turned out fine.

Agreed - hand wash and dry. I wouldn't use them frequently though, maybe just one more time.

I throw mine in the washing machine with the underwear, warm wash, gentle cycle. You're supposed to lay it flat to dry, but it holds a lot of water even after a gentle spin dry; so I put the whole load in the dryer for maybe 10 minutes on medium-low heat, to fluff it and let the other items absorb some of the moisture. Then when it's partially dry, I take it out and lay it flat. Seems to work well--after several months I have not yet seen any sign of aging from the dryer. Update: I've been using these for over a year now. The only change I've made is, I've gotten a drying rack; so instead of laying it flat when it's partially dry, I drape it over the rack. After a year, they're still soft, supple, and lie flat.

It's your fabric softner. When you wash your clothes next time, add 1/2 cup of vinegar in place of liquid fabric softner. You might have to do this a few times. I had this problem mostly with bathroom towels because I love them soft and fluffy, but the problem was too much of a build up on them. The vinegar will also wash your washer of any buildup. Good luck!

Yep -- stuck it in the washer then air dried just a few days ago. Or I sometimes take a kitchen brush to it if it's not too dirty. Works great!

Just wash them. I believe you hang dry them. So far have kept them pretty clean.

I just use soap (dish detergent) lightly with water and let it drip dry then use a towel to get any leftover moisture

I wash it with mild soap before and after use, and let it dry with air. So far everything is OK

Hi Jim, upon using for the very first time there is a slight smell, however with that said, after that and once washed.. it has not been an issue at all. Enjoy it I love it!

Wash it normal and air dry. You should have Noel issues ifit was ironed on correcrly.

Machine wash (I've done cold and warm, both fine) and either let it air dry flat or I often put it in the dryer for 5 minutes then let it air dry

I wash mine in the bathtub, shake it, set it up against the tub edge, come back in 10 min, repeat. Should be pretty dry then, put back in furnace.

I have had this issue too but discovered washing at a higher temp and or using a bit of bleach and using an extra rinse cycle keeps the synthetics fresh. Otherwise, the synthetics will stink!

I dont have such an issue, i have a misty spray but what i do every time after use is wipe it down with dry paper towel to avoid build up! Hope that helps
