Review on ☕ Nifty Verismo Capsule Drawer for Starbucks - Black, 50 Pod Pack Holder, Non-Rolling Sliding Drawer, Under Coffee Pot Storage, Home Kitchen Counter Organizer by Jeff Young

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Almost Perfect Box for Verismo Capsules

Overall this is a great product. It's durable, heavy, non-slip (no less on my smooth tile countertop), jet black, and colored well. , Your Verismo is under the wall units. I still have enough room to reach back and pull out the water carafe to fill it up. not: I would shrink them by a full row and column. It's significantly wider than the Verismo itself, and the compact/thin design is one of the Verismo machine's many great qualities. This drawer takes up much more space than necessary. It conveniently holds 10 capsules per row; 11 if you overlap their crests a little. But I don't recommend it: the coffee pods (compared to espresso pods are plumper than espresso pods) and they blocked the drawer when I tried to open it. Also, the drawer doesn't have a real handle, just a cutout in the front metal. So if you put 11 in each row, your fingers can't get in to open the drawer! So, 10. Like I said. With 10 pods x 5 rows, 50 pods is more than enough storage space at once (especially considering the price of these delicious treats!). I'd be happy with a 10x4 or even a 9x4 (the back row isn't accessible when the drawer is pulled out anyway; you kind of have to reach in there and pull the last pod forward), 40 or even 36 pods total. More than enough not to have to refill it too often and it will greatly reduce meter usage. In my home, counter space is limited and valuable (usually my stash of capsules due to the cost above). Again, it's overall well made, high quality, and gets the job done.

Pros
