Alessi PG02 "Blip" Spoon Holder, Silver

Elegant design, less footprint than most spoon rests, easy to clean, and with 3 points of contact, works on uneven surfaces.

This is a work of art, as to be expected with Alessi and why we purchase Alessi. It's gorgeous. Luckily for me, I got it for a steal on a warehouse deal because someone missed the point. (If you want a $6 behemoth, monster holder that can catch every spill, get a KitchenPro "boat" at CostCo. This is not that. This is for Alessi loyalist nerds who desire a beautiful work of art and design that happens to double as a spoon holder.) Yes, it is smaller and somewhat daintier than the average spoon holder, but it still lovingly, perfectly cradles all my cooking utensils while making me appear much classier than I am. I keep it on the divider in the center of my stove, a little pop of elegant, whimsical design on the kitchen island where it can appreciated by the masses. Initially after reading reviews, I tried using it as a spoon holder for my coffee. But that covered it with drips, sullying its sparkling luster and buried it next to a machine in the shadows, like just another spoon holder. But this is Alessi and like all art, it is meant to be seen and enjoyed. Art is unexpected, not homogenous or predictable, and it shouldn't be like the rest--or it wouldn't be Alessi! The fact that it's also practical is Alessi's trademark bonus icing on the design-nerd cake. (I'd say it's too small to give as a gift alone, but would be lovely in a coffee/tea basket, or with the Alessi heart teaspoons.) If you love Alessi, you'll delight in it and adore it and find a purpose for it. Even if that's just staring admiringly at it on your counter, for beauty's sake.

I have had this on my stove for decades and love it. I bought one for my daughter for Christmas . Sturdy, attractive and functional

This is a great spoon rest. It is perfect for a tablespoon or a teaspoon. It is light weight, but not flimsy. It is sturdy and holds the spoon well. I was looking for something for my espresso bar and this is absolutely perfect! I also bought one for my countertop for when I make tea. I do not recommend this spoon rest for large mixing spoons. I have a larger spoon rest on my stove for that. This spoon rest is absolutely beautiful - a nice accent to your countertop, and it does its job well. I absolutely love it and would recommend it to anyone.

Simple designs work the best. Holds spoons of all sizes and looks great doing it.

Was very excited to gift this for the holidays; I’ve heard it’s beautiful. Unfortunately, I waited 3+ weeks for it and when it was listed as “delivered”, it never actually arrived. There was no way to reach out to the delivery service, Australia Global Post, or get any information on the delivery. Will just re-order outside of Amazon.

It's a little bit lighter weight than I expected but beautifully made. It holds up to five spoons at once (depending on the size) and goes in the dishwasher. I use it every day.

Looks great. A little small for wooden spoons but it works just fine. I suppose you don't want a larger size if you are interested in this design.... We handwash it to preserve the finish.
