Review on Gourmet Basics Mikasa 5217596 Countertop by Carolina

Revainrating 2 out of 5

Looks good but doesn't save a lot of space and doesn't store a lot of food.

Honestly, the basket set is beautiful, but not very practical. I'm surprised it has so many rave reviews. The baskets don't hold as much as you think, and if you try to put more than a few onions or pieces of fruit in, they tip over and things fall out because the baskets aren't front-to-back centered. Maybe you could eat 2 large onions or some apples/oranges before it gets too full. The gaps are also quite large, making it easy to damage the fruit when it comes into contact with the grate and things like garlic fall through. I would like to return it, but it's too late. I hope to find another, more practical use for it.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Negative gift
