This Sleek $18 Find Will Instantly Organize Your Kitchen’s Most Chaotic Drawers

It’s way too easy to let your kitchen drawers become cluttered — and it’s even easier to allow them to stay that way. After all, no one really sees the inside of them, and after you tidy them up, they’ll just get messy again anyway, right? I’ll admit that I’ve fallen victim to this mindset before, and I’ll be the first to tell you: Don’t underestimate the power of an organized drawer.

Allow yourself one chaotic junk drawer, sure, but as for the rest, getting them into tip-top shape will make a world of difference when you use your kitchen every day. Knowing where everything is will make your cooking process run way more smoothly, and even if you aren’t the type to spend a lot of time in the kitchen, the peace of mind you’ll get knowing that your drawers are in pristine condition is priceless.

We have a few brands that we swear by to get our belongings in order, and one of our absolute favorites is Yamazaki. We know we can always rely on the Japanese brand to deliver on home organization products that are just as stylish as they are functional — including their Compact Cutlery Storage Organizer, which you can snag for under $20!

Whether your drawer is wide or extremely narrow, this nifty organizer will fit inside of it and save you tons of space. If you live on your own and don’t have a ton of cutlery, just one is sure to get the job done, but if you have more (and a larger drawer to work with), you can even place two side by side.

The organizer has three adjustable clear dividers that you can move to create more or less space between them so that it’ll fit different sized forks, spoons, or knives. It holds them diagonally, too, which makes them easier to grab from the drawer.

And who’s to say you have to limit this nifty organizer to the kitchen drawer only? It can sort your toiletries in the bathroom or pencils and office materials in your desk just as well. There are tons of options!

“This organizer exceeds my in-drawer storage expectations. I purchased it in black and it fits and looks great in my light wood cabinets. The design is simple and effective, everything I love about Yamazaki!” — Erica B.

“My silverware was a mess inside a big drawer because my other bamboo organizers didn’t fit the space. Enter Yamazaki — a perfect fit. Every spoon, knife and fork accounted for. The silverware drawer is a thing of beauty.” — Jan E.

“I was pleased to find this expandable drawer organizer for my silverware drawer. The width fit it perfectly, and I was then able to extend it to also fit the length. The floating tray on top was helpful in containing a few small items that usually get lost in a drawer.” — Alyssa S.

With so many positive reviews — and how high quality we know Yamazaki products are — $18 is a bargain for such a space-efficient organizer. This is your sign to stop holding off on transforming your drawers!
