Case Study: Real Business, Real Results
The Lakeside Manor Hotel in Windermere was looking for a way to modernise their popular afternoon tea service without a costly refurbishment. They needed to create more visual appeal on their service tables.
"We wanted to create more layers and interest for our afternoon tea stands. These risers were the perfect solution. They look incredibly smart, the base is rock-solid, and guests have commented on how lovely the new presentation is. It's a simple change that made a big difference."
Robert Finch – Operations Manager
The addition of the stands enhanced the perceived value of the afternoon tea, leading to a noticeable increase in bookings.
Installation and Maintenance Guide
Setting It Up
- The stand arrives as one solid piece, ready to use immediately.
- Give it a quick wipe with a soft, dry cloth before its first use to ensure it's gleaming.
- Always place it on a flat, level, and stable surface to maximise its stability.
- Position your platter or bowl securely on top before you start arranging food.
Keeping It Going
- After use, simply wipe clean with a damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent.
- Dry immediately with a soft, clean cloth to prevent water spots and maintain the brilliant chrome shine.
- Never use abrasive scourers or harsh chemical cleaners as they can scratch the finish.
- When storing, stack them carefully, perhaps with a cloth in between, to protect the surface.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Is the stand delivered fully assembled?
A: Yes, it is a single, solid unit that's ready to use straight out of the box. No assembly required.
Q: Can I put hot plates directly on the chrome surface?
A: We would advise against placing very hot items directly onto the chrome finish. It's best to use a protective mat or a suitable heat-resistant serving dish.
Q: How heavy is it to move around?
A: It weighs 2.83 kg, which is the perfect balance. It's weighty enough to be extremely stable during use, but light enough for staff to position and clear away easily.
Q: Is the chrome finish on the APS GF107 buffet stand prone to rust?
A: The chrome plating is designed for commercial durability. To ensure a long life, always dry it thoroughly after cleaning and avoid leaving it wet for extended periods.
Q: What is the diameter of the top ring?
A: The top ring has a diameter of 150mm (or 15cm), making it ideal for small to medium-sized bowls, plates, and serving platters.
Q: What's the best way to clean fingerprints off the chrome?
A: A soft, dry microfibre cloth is perfect for quickly buffing away fingerprints and bringing up a brilliant, streak-free shine.
Q: Can this stand be used for outdoor catering?
A: Yes, it is suitable for outdoor events. However, to maintain its condition, we recommend bringing it indoors after use and not leaving it exposed to the elements overnight.
Q: What does 'stackable' mean for this specific design?
A: The stands are designed to nest neatly on top of one another, significantly reducing the amount of shelf space required for storage when not in use.
