Review on ๐Ÿด BAMEOS Bamboo Utensil Drawer Organizer - Expandable & Adjustable Silverware Holder, Kitchen Knives Tray, Cutlery Tray Desk Drawer Organizer - 100% Pure Bamboo by David Barit

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Bought and compared 3 different brands: Zri 5 stars, Bameo 3, Lipper 1

I recently rearranged my kitchen so I bought 3 different full drawer bamboo organizers for ( 3 ) of my 12 3/4" drawers: 1 for serving utensils, 1 for disposable cutlery, etc. (for my daughter's school lunches), and 1 for the litter box. Although they cost about the same, the quality varied drastically. Here's how I rate them ( Best to Worst): Expandable Bamboo Cutlery Drawer Organizer - Kitchen Cutlery, Cutlery, Cutlery Tray, Tuck and Tongue Joint (by Zri), 14" deep, 11-17" wide, inches and 2.5 inches high, manufactured by Zri. This unit is by far the heaviest and most durable of the three. I would give it 4.5 stars (half a star deducted - at 14" deep I had to buy an extra organizer to use in front of that to pack a full sc hublade) but after weighing the fact that this organizer should last a long time given the height, quality of the bamboo, excellent workmanship and strong mortise and tenon joints I rounded up to 5 stars. BAMEOS Upgraded Dish Drawer Organizer Cutlery Organizer Cutlery Drawer Cutlery Holder Kitchen Knife Drawer Tray 100% Natural Color Pure Bamboo Sliding Cutlery "Deep x 2" High The listing description below lists the correct measurements as 12.5"- 22" wide x 16.9" on. "on 2". It's a good middle ground (smooth and well finished), although I don't know why they changed the main description to reflect incorrect information At 16.9 inches deep, the last few inches at the back of the drawer are inaccessible unless you slide the unit back and tuck items between the front of the drawer and the organizer (there's not enough room for an additional organizer like den Zri)....3.5 stars rounded up to 3 due to incorrect sizing in the ad. Lipper International 8397 Adjustable Bamboo Drawer Organizer with 6 Removable Dividers, 12" x 17-1/2 1-7/8" x 12" wide, 17 1/2" deep and 1 7/8" high. My least favorite - this block is lighter than the others, the finish is fairly thin and the surfaces are rough. I also bought a Lipper 3 drawer divider to put in front of the Zri at the same time (see: Sansnow Bamboo Kitchen Condiment Box Cutlery Box Knife Fork Box Bamboo 12"4" arrives tomorrow although I was tempted to give the Lipper Organizer 2 stars because it's the longest of the 3 and takes up more space in the drawers, it's the smallest device and the quality just lacks compared to other 2 devices. So 1 star I would recommend more Zri and Bameo devices if needed buy, but I will avoid the Lipper brand from now on.
