The caster wheels would work if you put on two wheels at the back and two rubber feet in the front, so you lift the appliance a bit to move it, but during operation it stays stationary.

Video idea: Find space saving solutions for Ben's kitchen :D

I wish the Sorted team huge success, If only so Ben will move to a large house so we don't have to keep hearing about how small his flat is.

LOVING that Ben went to the organizer getting greasy over the stove/hob. It's one of my pet peeves of anything hung near the stove.

Not in the kitchen but I actually use the mini caster wheels for my under-the-bed storage boxes. Makes it so much easier to pull them in and out.

6:52 The first "gadget" is absolutely daylight robbery for some flimsy plastic...

with the over-the-sink dish rack, the argument of "I'd leave dishes in it" applies equally to any dish rack you might have. i transitioned from a side-of-sink rack to over-the-sink and i reclaimed a few precious square feet of counter space i desperately need in my tiny kitchen.

As A wheelchair user I love my magnetic spice racks for my fridge. It allows me to safely access my spices when cooking at a level more manageable for me. Mine also came with a papertowel rack and a small utensil storage rack.

Over the sink rack is a drying station however, it can also double as cabinet space. Some kitchens are so small that having the rack would essentially extend your cabinet space. Just keep dishes out and that is where they are stored.

On something Ben said for the last item, 21:00, it’s tough to lump together people who are busy and people who are lazy since both would want gadgets to cut down time spent on tasks

12:05 The caster wheels would work if you put them on a dog bowl. Hours of entertainment.

Watching the Brit doing the 'washing up' and hanging unrinsed dishes dripping with soap on the drying rack shook me!

I love how seriously Ben takes reviewing things. I've noticed multiple videos where he tries really hard to make sure he is giving everything a fair and honest shot. It's very commendable.

im still in awe that most online brits that shows washing dishes dont rinse after soaping dishes

We put wheels on our countertop water filter and coffee machines so that they can stay back in a corner when not in use but they’re still easy to access and fill. Never needed them before we had a U-shaped kitchen with deep corners though. But they’ve worked really well and made the corners viable places for appliances.

The magnetic shelves impressed me, especially as I realised that they would also stick to the side on my new desk, which has a metal side frame unlike my old one. So I've ordered a set of four; two for the kitchen, two for the study. Or some combination thereof.

with the condiment rack drawers and mini spoons my first thought was ice cream toppings lol

18:12 "Astiankuivauskaappi" is very common in Finland too and can be purchased from IKEA as a standard kitchen cabinet. It doesn't look cluttered because you close the doors.

I have the spice racks! The side of my refrigerator is directly behind me when I'm standing at my stove. I got some of those spice racks and now when I'm cooking, I can just turn around and grab what I need off the rack without digging through a cabinet. The one negative if I was reviewing them is that one of the magnets was not affixed properly to the rack but a drop of super glue took care of that.
Edit: I also have the over sink drying rack (or a version thereof) and it is excellent. My cabinets go around the sink leaving just enough space for it and it lets me dry items I'm hand washing without wasting my very limited work surface!
