Full details
This 33cm KitchenAid Splatter Guard is designed for home cooks who want to minimize kitchen mess and cooking odors. Its durable stainless steel mesh prevents oil and sauce splashes while allowing steam to escape, and a built-in carbon filter tackles unpleasant smells. While effective for everyday frying, the carbon filter will eventually need replacement.

Troubleshooting
Splatter guard is not preventing splatters effectively.
Ensure the guard is placed directly over the pan, covering the edges. Check that the mesh is clean and free of debris that could obstruct its function.
Cooking odors are still noticeable.
The carbon filter may be saturated and require replacement. Refer to the manufacturer for replacement options or consider when the filter was last effective. Ensure the guard is sealing as well as possible around the pan.
Guard is difficult to clean.
Soak the guard in warm, soapy water before washing. If using a dishwasher, ensure it is placed securely to allow water circulation.
