Review on πŸŽ‹ Bamboo Kitchen Drawer Organizer: Expandable Utensil Holder, Silverware Organizer, Cutlery Tray with Grooved Dividers & Flatware Compartment (7-9 Lots) - Sturdy & Functional by Samantha Bryant

Revainrating 3 out of 5

The dimensions listed are WRONG

It says it's 13 inches wide at its narrowest point (and they also have the widest 13 inches so they completely messed that up as it's at least opens another 4 inches). is NOT 13 inches. If it didn't have wings, then yes, it would be about 13 inches, but they forgot that the wings add another 3/4 inch, and that 3/4 inch makes that 1/2 inch wider than my old 1970's drawer years years. πŸ€¦β€β™€οΈI had to disassemble it and remove the wings to use it in my box. It was surprisingly easy to take apart - I just took both wings and yanked hard and it all fell apart. You may be wondering why I did this and not just come back? This is because this Vine offer does not allow returns. If I ordered it the normal way then it looks like I can return it but as I can't return it I will because we needed an upgrade and are on a very limited income at the moment every little helps. Not as happy with it as I had hoped. I can't fit that many things in my drawer right now. But now it's beautifully designed. In terms of content, it is not 100% bamboo. The parts that stand - the edges and dividers - are made of bamboo, and the floor is fiberboard with bamboo-like paper. Structurally, only the pins hold it together. Not nails, but thin sticks of a sewing needle stuck in bamboo details. No glue. I used glue when reassembling it so I could actually use it. But all the pieces fit together and it looks good and has some weight. If it fits right I'd give it 4 stars as it's decent and I really have no problem with it - just not worth 5 stars in my opinion, especially as I had to move things into different drawers to make up for the lost 2 spots ( the blue holder was so small that I had plenty of room in the front and back - I kept the steak knives in the front and the extra cutlery in the back - worked). But since I took the time to make sure this fit and her measurements were wrong at the time of writing, I'm deducting another star. The devil is in the details.

Pros
  • Multipurpose use for your options
Cons
  • Long wait
