Can this screen be used in kitchen? Wont oil stick to the fibers after long use? Can the screen be cleaned with water?

Hi Soumendu....I would say yes to use in a kitchen. Not too close to stove though, unless you want to clean often. The fabric can be cleaned gently with mild soap and water. I am using mine in a family room and may have to clean from dust and residue periodically. In my opinion, the fabric is porous and should be easy enough to clean. Hope this helps to answer your question. - Pam Bilotto

Hello! It can be used anywhere in your home. It's very nice, I love it! It is transparent (see through) so does let light in. I was worried when I read the description of it prior to ordering due to the transparency of it, but took a chance and very happy with my purchase. Mine is used between my living room and the foyer to keep my cats out of the living room. Very warm, cozy look to it due to colors! If you do a lot of cooking with oil/grease, I'd have to say, yes over time. And, no the screen probably should not be cleaned with water, it is a stiff material type fabric. I hope that helps! :) Hello! It can be used anywhere in your home. It's very nice, I love it! It is transparent (see through) so does let light in.

This is the same reason I trashed my previous sifter and went to the tried and true Norpro - no more multiple screens that cannot be cleaned out. This sifter is dishwasher safe on the top shelf or rinse in sink of sudsy water.

We've had the press for a year now and the screen is still working just fine. I've had inquiries about where to buy replacement screens, so I'm sure some people have had problems. I wash mine by hand and it still looks brand-new after almost a year's daily use.

Hello. You can clean the case with disinfectant wipes, but after you do that take a cloth or tissue and wipe off any wet residue from the screen area so that it is dry and responsive to touch. Thank you

Although I really like this screen and it meets my needs beautifully, I'm not sure it's what you would want in a humid environment. It's wood and I would be afraid it might swell or mildew.

You need to use specially designed wipes and cleaners for LCD screens. You can get them online or at places like Staples. No Windex! No water!

Either a microfiber cloth or Windex makes a special screen cleaner . Do not use paper towels.

Works fine for me. I use a bit of non-stick spray oil and wipe down with paper towel. 6 months now no problem at all......

I wash the screen thoroughly after each use with the spray thing in the sink. I don't take it apart.

Yes, but make sure to keep the screen cleaned well after each use, and remember that those oils are typically full of artificial perfumes and harsh chemicals, so you'll be inhaling that.

It is good. You'll have to wipe it clean still every now and again because if you touch it with fingers from food but oil from fingers won't be an issue. I hope this helps.

I only clean it when the oil looks bad. That depends on how often we use it. Cleaning was easier than other friers due to less of parts. I drain it and soak it over night in soapy water, rinse the next day. Vingar can be used to help cut some of the oil on the stainless steel. I hope this helps.

I have not installed it yet, but for other similar ones I have used, the screen is washable and should last fairly long

This is an excellent screen. I play Call of Duty and Need 4 Speed on it all the time and it is beautiful. I have a Benq W7000 projector and the screen quality is amazing. Would recommend it. No one touches my screen, so it stays perfect. I wouldn't want "hands" on it, so having it in the garage where it could be touched might be a concern. As long as it is untouched, I think you would be fine. Good luck!

I have been running this unit almost nightly for a few weeks. Haven't cleaned yet. They recommend not letting water/oil sit in unit while not in use. I am careful to let it run until it turns off, then dispose of small amount of water left and thoroughly wipe out with soft cloth.

I do not wash mine; I just wipe off the excess flour, pack it away until next time. It has only one screen so I would say it is washable.

Yeah--what everyone else said! :) The screen is used to go over the top of the seesha bowl. Then you place your lit charcoal on top of it and WAHLAH! ...Oh, and yes, it should also be washed after every use.
