Physical Store or Online Shopping?

June 24, 2022

RICKI Kitchen Trends conducted a survey among consumers who purchased kitchen products in the past year. The survey was to see if people are purchasing products in stores or online. As it turned out, three in four say they spent more money in physical stores than they did online. The biggest reason for this is that people want to "touch and feel" kitchen products or to buy locally.

We are surrounded by stimuli all the time in our world. In today's always connected digital environment, it can be debilitating. It really should come as no surprise that we feel more at ease when we encounter anything in our day-to-day lives that is orderly, balanced, or tidy. When we can move around easily, find what we need logically, and don't have to worry about looking for it, we feel happier. We can all live better when we are organized, and Hardware Resources organizers just make life better. Continue reading to learn about some of the creative ways Hardware Resources is bringing harmony to the disarray of contemporary life. Let’s Organize Drinks The kinds of organizational solutions that people require for their houses are directly influenced by lifestyle trends. Single-use beverage containers have been under increasing pressure from customers in recent years. The unusual sizes, forms, and attachments (straws and lids) of reusable drink containers, such as water bottles, insulated beverage containers, and tumblers, can make them challenging to store. Although traditional rollout drawers can facilitate access to certain objects, they are not the best option because the items have a tendency to move and fall out when the drawer is pulled out. Hardware Resources' Bottle Rollout Organizer is made to make handling and storing these bulky containers simple. Because of its double drawer design, the Bottle Rollout makes it simple to reach the bottom drawer by pushing the top drawer back and out of the way. In addition to the 15-bottle grid, the 21- and 27-bottle organizers contain a partially divided drawer to hold lengthy or bulky goods and a reversible grid system that allows for left- or right-hand arrangement. With a 15-bottle grid that can hold containers up to 4" by 4", the bottle grid system offers the greatest amount of flexibility. For a variety of households, including active families with sports-loving members, environmentally conscious consumers who wish to avoid single-use drinkware, and performers who utilize the bottle rollout for their home bar or beverage area, it is a clever option.
