Amazon.com Review: Attractive enough for use on a pretty buffet table, this caddy stores flatware on the kitchen counter in sleek, contemporary style. It holds a dozen knives, dinner forks, salad forks, teaspoons, and soup spoons and measures 11 by 9 inches. Knives fit at an angle in slots in a center rack so their handles can be easily grasped. Heavy, stable, and dishwasher-safe, the caddy is chrome-plated and has a thick, clear acrylic base just above its hexagonal feet. --Fred Brack

I was well pleased with this product. It was exactly what I had in mind for making flatware available for large family gatherings.

Some of my utensils wont fit though, because the spacing is too narrow,
A little less than half an inch.
Other than that, its all good.

The caddy looks very nice and will be useful. But it has a couple of problems which weren't apparent from the description.
It only holds about 8 of my forks, etc, in each stack. I don't think my flatware is unusual. The handles are thicker than the tines of the forks and the bowls of the spoons. So when I put them in the caddy, the stack begins to slant more with each additional piece in the stack. By the time I have 8 in the stack, the slant is steep enough that the next one tends to slide out.
The knives are put into the caddy at an angle, with some pointing towards ... Read More

I saw this organizer on the buffet table at a friend's holiday party last night. It made such a neat and orderly presentation of plastic silverware that I had to search the internet for it this morning.
