Has anyone had trouble with the plastic staining?

No, I haven't had any trouble with the plastic staining. I put crushed tomatoes for spaghetti sauce through the mill, and the tomato comes right off when I wash it. The first time I did that I thought it might stain, but it didn't.

I wouldn't say 'trouble'. I figure it's part of the process when doing large amounts of juicing.

I haven't. I only used it once so far but I didn't wash it the same day and when I fina got around to it, it came clean really easy. No staining.

We had the same problem. First i just dishwash soap and a brush to get it off. Didnt work. Then i out some hand soap on the stains, rubbed it in with my fingers, let it sit for an hour and then washed it off. All stains were gone!

I have had the stains several times. Tried using bleach or non-chlorine bleach but clothing had already been through the dryer so I could not get rid of the stains. Yesterday, my husband's polo shirt came out with a round splotch on the front. I tried rewashing it but that didn't help. Guess I'll have to use Stain Out or similar next. I wrote to Tide about the problem and they suggest I call them to discuss solution. I'll do that.

No! Mine is smearing on many of the boxes. I am also having trouble with the plastic being brittle and cracking/breaking in places. Maybe there is a bad batch of boxes? I have contacted the manufacturer to see if they have any comment.

Pretreat with a scotch guard. I have not experienced any staining as of yet however, I monitor who and what are around this beautiful yet fragile upholstered chair - It's a great piece of furniture.

I have had no problems with the coating or staining issues. I have only had it for a year and live in a place that has municipal water with low iron content.

I've had mine for about a year now and no silverware marks so far. They did her some odd round brown stains though and I have no idea where these come from

Mine started discoloring also. I wish I could help you but I haven't been able to clean mine as well.

I've had mine for 1-2 months and have not had any stains. I do empty and rinse after every potty, though:)

I have not had this issue. I've had mine since September, I don't use it daily though. I have only hand washed. I have used it in the microwave. I do find that tomato sauces stain the finish slightly, but this is true of most plastics. I line the interior with a little parchment paper to prevent that.

Yes!! I have. It now looks like copper in places and the plastic covered feet have marked my sink black. It's very disappointing.

I got these for Christmas and mine stained right away on the second use cooking some frozen fish. Has anyone successfully gotten the stains out I tried the soap and water per instructions but that did not seem to help.

I haven't had that problem yet with mine, but when I clean it I might try wiping it out with a cotton ball wetted with rubbing alcohol.

Never had that problem, but any stains I have, I just use a small amount of Ajax, scrub gently, run the pan through the dishwasher again -- and any stain comes right out. Good luck.

Same as previous answer. We've had ours installed for about 2 years now. We rinse it out after each use and its not stained

We have had the plates for several months. We have never had a problem with stains. We even microwave food with no problems

I have not had any issues with staining or discoloration and I have had them for a few years. I have only had dry baking ingredients ex. flour in all of them.
