Review on Gourmet Basics Sierra Metal Buffet Stand with Removable Acacia Serving Trays in Antique Black - by Mikasa by Steven Lewis

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Durable and high quality. Pretty versatile style. It can also work for a bachelor environment.

I use two of these in a row on my kitchen peninsula to hold things like fruit on plates, a top level napkin holder, salt shaker, pepper and cinnamon. The vertical shape saves space and also hides some other storage items behind it, like the toaster, coupon box, surge protection bar, and my Kitchen Aid mixer. and it helps make the space look less cluttered and more collected. I wish they were a bit longer and wider but they fit this size too. They are very durable and have a nice look, not a "cheesy" or cheap look. Their wood look looks very natural and is easy to clean with a damp cloth or paper towels. I think they fit into many decor styles and other areas of the home for vertical storage. They're probably good for a buffet-style dinner, for serving bread or fruit, or for storing dishes or snacks while entertained in the cocktail table area when space is limited. Although I find them a bit overpriced. I was expecting to pay around $25 or $30 each, but they fitted the space I was planning to use them in very well and the style seemed to go well with our style of kitchen. If you have a specific space you want to use it in I would suggest making a template with measurements on paper to see if it fits in that space. Don't forget to measure the vertical distance as well.
