Review on 2 Piece Ironwood Gourmet Bread Board & Dipping Bowl Set - Acacia Wood by Chase Arellano

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Very attractive, sturdy, comfortable to carry.

Attractive, well built, good proportions. Purchased to act as a TV tray to carry dinner to another room or outside and to place on my lap as a dining surface. I had some old bamboo trays that came apart if you used the handles and were flimsy. I liked the idea of the lip on this saddle tray to keep everything in place, which it does very nicely. I only gave it 4 stars because of its size. It does not hold a dinner plate and really is too small for a lunch plate or at least my lunch plate, due to the sloping sides. I use a folded wash cloth underneath the lunch plate to lift the base up high enough to fit in the tray. Small plate with bowl (soup and salad) works great. Could see a couple of drinks and a pitcher for summer lemonade, etc. it is sturdy enough fo that weight.I have a couple of steps and a storm door to navigate to go outside, so the raised sides are great for keeping everything on the tray.I really like them and would order more if they came in a larger size.

Pros
  • Wood
Cons
  • The dipping bowl may not be suitable for use with hot or boiling liquids
