Do you toss stained potholders?
not ones that are displayed but in a drawer. I wash them but they look yucky to me since they have grease and sauce stains on them. Should I toss or just be more careful when cooking?

Re: Do you toss stained potholders?
The silicone ones are great. They are called hot spots. If you dirty them, toss them in to be washed with dishes

Re: Do you toss stained potholders?
I've thrown mine in the wash several times. But now that I think about it they are 5 years old...maybe time to get some new ones.

Re: Do you toss stained potholders?
I wash them but most of the time throw them out very often. I buy them in the dollar store so it doesnt hurt as much

I use them until they're done serving their purpose. I only buy new ones when i find a good deal or sale.

Here too. I'm the only one who sees them, and I use them to get dirty, so...

Re: Do you toss stained potholders?
I have black pot holders and it hides dirt really well. It matches my decor.
After running thru the wash, they look new, I guess it just doesn't show the stains.
I keep ruining my black dish towels however due to bleach/chemicals on the counter tops. Ull well, at least they aren't expensive
