While some kitchen users will find some of the baskets they bought are not easy to use. and consult us for solutions. So what we should know about kitchen basket? Today, let's talk about the basket in kitchen cabinet design.

First and foremost, the size reserved in kitchen cabinet design.

Most of the baskets are fixed inside cabinets and are able to be pulled out from cabinet. According to the mechanisms of baskets, each model requests a certain cabinet size. If the cabinet is smaller, then the basket cannot be fixed into. If the cabinet is bigger, the basket may not be function well. When you are looking for basket for your kitchen, make sure your kitchen cabinet design is suitable for the model you want. Or in the very beginning, when you are custom kitchen cabinets, tell your designer about the baskets you want, and ask the designer to reserved the space for them. Moreover, kitchen suppliers like Chiffini, work with professional kitchen basket supplier. You don't need to search the baskets from the unfamiliar market, we will prepare them for you.

In the following, there are some aspects for you to choose the best basket.

1.The appearance

Most of the baskets are made by metal. The appearance of them should be neat and not messy. The edges and corners should be smooth, and there should be no excessive burr.

Though the baskets are hidden inside cabinets, the appearance of baskets also influence the overall view of kitchen cabinet design. When your kitchen is in bright and light color, such as glossy white, we will suggest you to choose the chrome or stainless steel baskets since they have nice shinning surface. If your kitchen is in dark color, then black painted baskets will looks nice with it.

2. The quality

Baskets made from metals will have solder joints on the edges or corners. These solder joints should be strong but not big. If the joint is too obvious, the appearance of basket will look bad. But if the joint is weak, the basket is not duable during daily using. So it's important to choose the baskets from reliable baskets manufacturers. These manufacturers are using automatic machines to do the welding, which is more accurate than the man-made welding.

Common customers are hard to tell which basket supplier is reliable and which is not. Until they get the basket, they will know the exact quality. That's why during the kitchen cabinet designing, we will suggest client to select the basket models from the suppliers we recommended. 

3. The mechanisms

The slide rail is the most important mechanism part of the complete basket.

The slideway has a certain carring capacity. The slideway with stable material, high smoothness, high occlusion, and low noise should be selected.

The track of pull-out basket must be smooth when pulling out and pushing in. Even the basket is full of utensils or items, a good slider will not make noise when sliding. Also, if the cabinet door is not closed in place, it may be because of the poor quality or the incorrect assembling.
