Alessi Blip PG02 - Spoon Rest in 18/10 Stainless Steel Mirror Polished

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.

It’s a unique in design spoon rest. I already have and love it! I sent it as a gift to my niece and she loved it so much that she uses it as an ornament in her living room when she is not cooking!!! On top of its beauty it’s also very practical!

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

I love the streamlined design of this spoon rest. I own two, and they are stackable. It's like a tiny piece of sculpture. That said, it is small, and there are some large spatulas and soup ladles that will not fit neatly into this spoon rest. It works best for standard basting spoons and slotted spoons. This design also looks great at the dining room table if you have a modern decor.

This looks great, but it is too small for some large serving untensils

From the original manufacturer and bought several over years Italian craftsman don’t buy Chinese knock offs great gift idea

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.

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

Il poggiamescolo Alessi è un accessorio da cucina elegante e funzionale. Il design moderno e sinuoso in acciaio inossidabile lo rende non solo pratico, ma anche un vero e proprio complemento d’arredo che dona stile al piano cottura. La forma curva permette di appoggiare mestoli e cucchiai senza sporcare il piano di lavoro, ed è molto semplice da pulire: basta un panno o un passaggio in lavastoviglie. La qualità dei materiali è quella tipica di Alessi, robusta e resistente nel tempo. Perfetto per chi ama unire design e praticità in cucina. Consigliatissimo anche come idea regalo per chi apprezza gli oggetti di uso quotidiano con un tocco di eleganza.
