I like the appearance of teak and this tray shows of the wood's color quite well. It is fairly large and may not fit in locations like a bathroom counter. But there are many uses to which it can be put: holding items on a vanity table or even in the kitchen are just two ideas. It can even be used as a serving tray for food and drink. Other reviewers have noted the open slat design for the bottom. Small items could fall through or liquids could leak to the surface underneath. I would recommend that it not be used in wet areas or with items that tend to get wet or leak. The sides are high, which could be a plus for some purposes, such as holding larger items in the bedroom or a guest room, for magazines, tissues or other items. It arrived wrapped in plastic in a shipping carton, with a small card from the manufacturer thanking the purchaser. It reads, in part, "Dear friend, It is a great honor to share the most precious item with you." An email contact is provided as well. I wish more sellers would include such information.

What it is: Stained and clear coated teak tray with end handles, slatted base, and assembled with box joints. Dimensions 16” long x 12” wide x 4” high. Why I like it: I’m using this primarily to organize supplies under the sink in our master bath. It is very sturdy (the box joints add style and strength), the handles add utility, and the slats provide drainage if used in a bath, shower, or sink area. It is mass produced, and it probably could have been prepped better before finishing. A bit sanding after assembly would take this to 5/5 stars. Overall, a very nice addition to your bath or poolside space.
