Review on 🗄️ Joseph Joseph Dream Drawers 85188 - Drawerstore Compact Cutlery & Knife Organiser Set of 2, Large - Grey by Jill Lawrence

Good at first. The knife block fits well with my different sized knives. This keeps them well organized, although my steak knives have thick handles, so I can't fit as many knives into the block as I want because the handles take up too much room. But that is not due to the knife holder. Now for the bad. Conclusion: The cutlery tray is completely useless. I usually endure more than four spoons and forks because I don't want to wash my cutlery after every meal. But since I have two sizes of each of these items (like salad forks and dinner forks), I can only fit about four (5 if I'm lucky) in each slot so they don't get stuck in the slots and get confused with each other. . As a result, all of my spare utensils (because I have a service for 12) now sit in a zipped pocket in the back of the drawer and are not used. I have room for 8 knives. As mentioned, the slots aren't completely separated, so the dishes end up sliding around everywhere. Especially bad with forks because their teeth stick together. The extra slots on top are mostly useless as they are not covered at all. So if you stack too many dishes in them, they will fall out and slide. And I still need an extra slim cutlery drawer organizer because there isn't enough room in this tray for large serving forks and spoons, either in the slots on top (too small) or in the regular slots (too small and shallow). for larger courts in general, plus they are already crowded). Perhaps the most frustrating thing is that I like the knife block well enough but I hate the dish tray but I bought them in pairs so I can't return the tray without returning the block. Buy them separately if you want to try it. I have learned that Joseph Joseph items often look very cool, but they are often designed to prioritize aesthetics over functionality. This is a cool looking cutlery organizer that can't really organize everything. Rather buy something ugly, but functional. Capacity: 2/5 (very small; adding a star to store a knife block, which is sufficient and useful). For small spaces: 3/5 (yes, compact. But not everything fits, so you need additional organizers, not a compact tray) Durability 5/5 (seems very durable!)
