Simple Houseware Fruit Basket Bowl with Banana Tree Hanger, Chrome Finish

I’ve just moved and am looking for products to organize the kitchen. I’ve seen this sort of product over the years (in catalogs and on TV), and I’ve liked the look. When I saw this one offered, I decided to check it out.It comes in a couple “colors,” but, as I’m going for a rustic look in my new kitchen (and since the previous owner went with aged-bronze hardware that I like for that look), I decided to order this in the bronze finish.Reading the reviews, I noticed a few mentioned that this came with missing or uneven feet, making their baskets wobbly. Thankfully, mine had no such issues. The feet (little circles welded onto the base) were well attached and evenly spaced, so no wonky wobbling!The first photo I took was of the instructions page. Just one page. There’s only one thing to assemble, and, for most, it would probably be easy peasy. For me, however, it was an ordeal (thanks to the almost-microscopic screws)! All you have to do is take the hanging-bananas piece and feed it into the waiting brackets at the back, then drive the screws into place to secure the hanging rod. What could be simpler, right? Wrong! Having just trimmed my nails, they weren’t as long as they normally are, but, even with shorter nails, it took me AGES (read: minutes) to get the bloody screws into the tiny holes! Oh, my gosh! You need three hands AND no nails to do it! One hand to hold the basket steady, another to fiddle with the screws, and a third to wipe your brow as you perform delicate surgery! Seriously. There are only two screws, but, man, did it feel as if there were more. My nails kept making it almost impossible to get a hold of the screws and then kept preventing me from getting too close to the basket WITH the screws. I kept losing grip of the screws, dropping them on the counter or floor. It was an interesting endeavor. (And, yes, I’m aware it comes with an Allen wrench, but, well, in the first place, I hate the bloody things as they NEVER work easily for me (though I DID try them anyway) and, in this case, didn’t even fit into the screws to begin with! So, the Allen wrench was a no-go for me.) But to the victor go the spoils—in this case, victress with her first functional fruit basket!Now, I don’t normally leave cantaloupe out on the counter, but I wanted to show the capacity of the interior. The larger oranges and the cantaloupe, and there’s still room inside for, say, apples, lemons, or limes. And to hang the bananas, just put the knob at the end of the hanging arm through the top of the banana cluster. Nothing simpler.So, aside from that little nails-screws hiccup (which wasn’t enough of an issue to detract from a five-star rating), there was no problem in packaging, assembly, or display. I can recommend this product—with only one caveat: If you’re a girl with any amount of nail extending past the fingertips, then find a girlfriend who bites hers or give your man a my-hero thrill by asking him to rescue the long-nailed damsel in distress in dealing with the Lilliputian screws. You’ll make his day and save yourself a headache.(About the pictures: The first is the infamous Instructions page. The second is a shot from the front of the basket. The third is from the side. The fourth is from the back. The fifth is a closeup (and a little blurry) of the arm's bracket-and-screw area.)

Lovely fruit basket. Large bowl holds a lot of fruit and the banana rack is great so you don't have to lay the bananas on other fruit so it stays fresh longer. It was packaged well and quick and easy to attach the banana rack. I would recommend this item.
