Zeal G231B Cutlery Drainer/Utensil Pot, Melamine, Duck Egg Blue, 14 x 14 x 17 cm

Looks good for a utilitarian piece of kit. Well-made and sturdy, of some weight (351g when empty).It's sold as a cutlery and utensil drainer. It does take cutlery but it's a bit too tall for that as a main purpose, as it's designed more for storing/draining kitchen utensils or cooking utensils e.g. whisks and spatulas (which are taller than cutlery). I bought it in Cream colour, and it is a proper cream colour (the advert photo shows it as rather greyer than it is in real life). Easy to clean.The product label on the body needs to be peeled off, though it isn't quite easy-peel. The easy-peel labels on the bottom or underneath say it's 100% melamine, is dishwasher-safe but not microwaveable, and there's a manufacturer's label.

Very pleased with this drainer. It is strong and stable, tall enough for cooking utensils but not too wide so the teaspoons don't disappear. I like that it has feet so that the bottom is able to drain and with the side holes, the cutlery is able to dry properly. Thought it may look too big but it doesn't, it also has a pleasant texture and lovely colour. Wish I'd bought one sooner!

Major domestic disaster! The dishwasher malfunctioned, and we actually had to do the dishes by hand, so we needed something, in which to put the cutlery and utensils. This pot holds and drains a whole dinner party's worth of eating irons and cooking tools.

This cutlery drainer is excellent. I've found that most are too short for long utensils (eg spatulas or wooden spoons), are difficult to keep clean, or take up too much space on the draining board. This cutlery drainer has a small footprint, is easy to clean, holds the longest of utensils upright - although teaspoons do get a little lost in the bottom - and is weighted enough that it has never tipped over. Plus the feet ensure all the water drains away, so the drainer is never sitting in a puddle of water. It is a little pricy for a cutlery drainer that is made of melamine, but it's the best one I've ever bought. I highly recommend this product.

Sits neatly in one side of twin sinks, until I'm ready to wash up. Bought to replace stainless steel one that started to stain. Also, being melamine cutlery doesn't "rattle" when filling up.

This is good, larger than I thought, easily can contain quite a lot of cutlery. Nice colour. My only niggle is it has an annoying sticker on which ripped when trying to get it off and now its got bits of sticker on, despite best efforts to remove. Dont understand why they have these stickers that arent easily removed. Apart from that, its really good.

I bought this to replace my cutlery holder/drainer which sits next to my sink. It's not suitable for my desired location which was to be sitting within my wire dish drainer. Instead, it has replaced my utensil holder which was a painted steel job. For this purpose I'd recommend it 100% but as a post wash strainer it's questionable. If you have a large sink drainer that you can stand it on and you don't mind delving for your teaspoons then it's good. It is better than the regular stainless (they never are) steel drainers though.

This is a big sturdy heavy cutlery drainer. Puts me in mind of a plant pot holder with holes in. It's too big and cumbersome to sit in my dish drainer . It's well made with plenty room for cutlery and larger utensils. Doesn't look pretty but depends what you are looking for.
