Joseph Joseph DrawerStore Tiered Cutlery Organiser Stone
This innovative cutlery organiser maximises drawer space through a tiered, layered design that stacks compartments vertically rather than spreading them horizontally. Unlike conventional flat trays that consume valuable drawer width, this organiser uses vertical space, freeing up room for other kitchen essentials. Each compartment features a moulded icon identifying its intended contents—knives, forks, spoons, and smaller utensils—making it easy to maintain organisation even in busy households.
Made with a minimum of 50% post-consumer recycled plastic, this organiser reflects Joseph Joseph's commitment to reducing environmental impact whilst maintaining the quality and functionality the brand is known for. The Stone colourway provides a neutral, contemporary aesthetic that complements modern kitchen décor. The organiser disassembles for thorough cleaning when needed.
Key features:
- Tiered space-saving design: Layered compartments stack vertically, maximising drawer space compared to flat trays
- Icon-labelled compartments: Moulded icons on each section for quick cutlery identification
- Multiple storage sections: Separate compartments for knives, forks, spoons, and smaller utensils
- Disassembles for cleaning: Compartments separate for thorough washing and maintenance
- Environmentally conscious: Made with minimum 50% post-consumer recycled plastic (manufacturer certified)
- Stone colourway: Neutral tone with natural variations and small speckles from recycled content
- Compact footprint: 39.75cm length fits standard kitchen drawers whilst leaving space for other items
- Lightweight construction: 444g weight won't strain drawer runners
This organiser suits households seeking efficient drawer storage, particularly those with limited kitchen space or who want to consolidate cutlery and free up drawer capacity for other items. The tiered design works best in drawers with at least 9cm internal height to accommodate the layered compartments comfortably.
What Customers Ask About DrawerStore Tiered Cutlery Organiser
The tiered design stacks compartments vertically on top of each other rather than spreading them horizontally like traditional flat trays. This reduces the width needed in your drawer, freeing up space beside the organiser for other items such as tea towels, utensils, or kitchen gadgets. The vertical layering means you can store the same amount of cutlery in a smaller drawer footprint.
The organiser requires a minimum drawer height of 9cm (3.5 inches) to accommodate the tiered compartments comfortably. The footprint measures 39.75cm length x 17.05cm width. Measure your drawer's internal dimensions before purchasing—length, width, and particularly height—to ensure proper fit. If your drawer is shallower than 9cm, the tiered design won't work effectively.
Each compartment features a moulded icon indicating its intended contents. Typically, these include icons for knives, forks, spoons, and smaller utensils such as teaspoons or serving spoons. The visual system makes it easy for all household members to maintain organisation by returning cutlery to the correct compartment without needing to remember which section is which.
The small speckles and slight colour variations are normal characteristics of products made with post-consumer recycled plastic. These visual features result from the recycled material composition and don't affect the organiser's durability, functionality, or performance. Each piece may vary slightly in appearance, making your organiser unique whilst contributing to environmental sustainability.
The organiser disassembles, allowing you to separate the compartments for thorough cleaning. This makes it easy to remove any crumbs, dust, or debris that might accumulate between layers. Wash each section by hand with warm soapy water, dry completely, then reassemble. Regular disassembly and cleaning maintains hygiene and keeps the organiser looking its best.
Specifications
Care & Use Instructions
Before first use: Remove any packaging materials. Wipe each compartment with a damp cloth to remove any dust from manufacturing or transport. Dry thoroughly before placing in your drawer. Check that your drawer has a minimum internal height of 9cm to accommodate the tiered design.
Setting up: Place the organiser in your drawer with the longest dimension (39.75cm) aligned with your drawer's length or width, depending on your drawer configuration. Position it where you can easily access each compartment when the drawer is open. The 444g weight means the organiser stays in place during normal drawer use without sliding.
Organising cutlery: Use the icon labels on each compartment to guide placement. Typically, assign larger sections to frequently used items like dinner forks and knives, and smaller compartments to teaspoons and serving utensils. The tiered design means you lift items from upper compartments to access lower ones, so consider placing less-frequently used items in lower tiers.
Regular maintenance: Wipe compartments with a damp cloth as needed to remove crumbs or debris. The smooth polypropylene surface cleans easily and resists staining. For sticky residue, use warm water with a small amount of washing-up liquid, then rinse and dry thoroughly.
Deep cleaning: Disassemble the organiser by separating the compartments. Wash each section by hand in warm soapy water using a soft cloth or sponge. Pay attention to corners and edges where debris might collect. Rinse thoroughly and dry completely before reassembling. Regular deep cleaning (monthly or as needed) maintains hygiene.
Reassembly: After cleaning, ensure all sections are completely dry before stacking the compartments back together. The tiered design should click or nest into place securely. If compartments don't align properly, check for any debris preventing proper assembly.
About the recycled plastic: The organiser is made with a minimum of 50% post-consumer recycled plastic, which explains any natural colour variations or small speckles in the surface. These characteristics are normal and won't affect the product's durability or performance. The plastic maintains its structural integrity and cleaning properties despite the recycled content.
Avoid: Dishwashers—the organiser must be washed by hand to prevent warping or damage from heat. Don't use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads that might scratch the surface. Avoid placing extremely heavy items on top of the upper compartments when the drawer is closed, as this could compress or deform the tiered structure over time.
Environmental Considerations
Recycled Content: Made with a minimum of 50% post-consumer recycled plastic (manufacturer certified)
Visual Characteristics: Product colour may vary and small speckles in the surface may occur due to the recycled plastic content. This is perfectly normal and demonstrates the genuine use of recycled materials whilst having no impact on durability or performance.

The organiser requires a minimum 9cm internal drawer height. If your drawer measures exactly 9cm, it should fit, but there won't be extra clearance. For optimal functionality and ease of access to upper compartments, drawers slightly taller than 9cm work better. If you're concerned about fit, measure carefully and consider whether your drawer interior has any features (like runners or hardware) that reduce the usable height.
Whilst designed for cutlery, the compartments can store other kitchen items of similar size, such as tea towels, utensils, or small gadgets. The icon labels indicate intended cutlery placement, but you can organise items according to your needs. The tiered design works best with items that can be lifted out easily from upper compartments.
Capacity depends on your cutlery sizes and how you stack items within each compartment. The tiered design accommodates a standard household set of cutlery for 6-8 people when organized efficiently. If you have an extensive cutlery collection or very large serving pieces, you may need additional storage or a larger organiser.
No. Joseph Joseph uses high-quality post-consumer recycled plastic that maintains the same durability and performance standards as virgin plastic. The 50% minimum recycled content doesn't compromise structural integrity or longevity. The visual speckles and slight colour variations are the only noticeable differences, and these are cosmetic rather than functional.
At 444g, the organiser has enough weight to stay relatively stable during normal drawer opening and closing, especially once filled with cutlery. If your drawer is particularly smooth or the organiser slides excessively, you can place a non-slip drawer liner underneath to keep it positioned where you want it.
