Review on 🚰 Effective Spill Containment: Hopkins 11430 FloTool Large 25" x 36" Drip Tray by Robert Castro

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Ideal for storing magnetic stamps

I have included two photos of the tray used to store Sizzix Movers & Shapers magnetic stamps. I have been looking for this exact item for a long time and I am very satisfied with the tray. I've noticed the packaging and crumpled tray issues described in other reviews, but that wasn't my experience. As one reviewer mentioned, it arrived in a large, flat cardboard envelope, but also had lots of little air bags cushioning the inside of the tray. This may be a new shipping option due to previously reported issues. My tray was intact. It comes with a light oil finish that is not runny at all and does not smell like petroleum based products. However, be sure to support the tray where it may come into contact with curtains or furniture. For my purposes I didn't feel the need to try to remove this invisible coating as I only felt it by touching it. This does not affect the magnetic properties that I need for my use. When I bought it a few days ago, the price was $9.99. but today I only see $19.99 and $36 options for this tray. I would be willing to pay $20 for this tray but not $36, at least not for my needs. I went to my local sheet metal shop and asked them to cut a flat section of galvanized sheet metal to the dimensions I needed. But Revain's convenience and fast shipping with a master account makes it a much better deal.
