Scrap Trap With Scraper

Back in June of 2013 I had purchased the KitchenAid ScrapTrap, which we found it to be very useful and over the years we have been using it on a daily basis to the point the brush of the scrapper began to deteriorate. Since it didn't come up in the search field, I knew I had to scroll down through the years to see when I had purchased it and sure enough they still had the item. It’s now 2023, so the original KitchenAid ScrapTrap is 10 years old.I not only bought another one for us, but I also purchased one for our friends who live in North Carolina. They too are very happy with the KitchenAid ScrapTrap and how it is so uniquely designed to fit over a kitchen drawer handle. It is so handy.Even though the brush was beginning to go on the older set, the scrapper is still fine (even like new); so we now have two of the KitchenAid ScarpTraps in our Kitchen. One is by the Toaster Oven and bread cutting tray, so it is easy to brush all the crumbs into the ScrapTrap and the older one is located on the other side of the stove, where we prepare food items to cook which is great to put all the peeling from potato, carrots or any other vegetable that needs to be peeled.It is well designed and even is designed to fit over the drawer handle; with the counter top just overlapping the ScrapTrap it is so easy to clean off the counter top. Even when we are baking and the flour is on the counter it is so easy to clean off the counter and put it into the ScrapTrap, then the easiest part is just to empty it into the garbage. It is one of the easiest gadgets to clean. The plastic is so smooth that it is easy to just wash it in the sink and also to dry it. The brush is also so easy to clean, just by adding a little Dawn on the brushed and it cleans them to be like new (the brush even slides out from the scrapper, which makes it even easier to clean and to dry).What more can I say, it's an inexpensive way to keep your kitchen organized and clean. Both we and our friends are so impressed with the KitchenAid ScrapTrap.Sincerely,Joseph Snooka/k/a by Amazon as JDSnook

This was an impulse buy that turned out better than expected. There are only two downsides, but they don't decrease my satisfaction. I have very little counter space in my prep area and being able to scrape off the leavings of my fruits and veggies as I ready them for my smoothie maker or food processor is a giant plus. The little scraper works perfectly to scrape the remains into the bin and nothing falls on the floor. This is particularly appreciated when pealing garlic and onions as their skins on the floor are hard to get up with my swivel sweeper.Unfortunately, because the bin is rather large, it keeps me from getting as close the counter as I need to to reach certain items or get full use of the limited space. Because of that there's only one drawer I can attach it to and that is not the ideal one for quickest cleanup. The other downside is storage. Since I can't leave it on my drawer, I have to put it somewhere easy to access but out of the way when I don't need to use it and I don't have many storage options.Still the item is so useful, I'll find a solution. It's indispensable when I'm making apple sauce and coring and peeling multiple apples. It also is a real time saver when making a vegetable soup. I wish it collapsed like some colanders do these days to make storage easier, but I'll live with it as it is because it really saves me clean up time. It holds so much, I usually only need one trip to my compost bucket on the back porch.

I saw this thing on "I Want That," and you know, I thought to myself, I want that! So I looked for it on Amazon, found it, and ordered it. Wow, where has this thing been all my life!This product is made of durable plastic that doesn't feel cheap or brittle. It's roomy, so it holds lots of cooking scraps, packaging, zip tops - loads of room to hold, and takes up ZERO counter space! That's really important for people like me, who have not so much a kitchen as a galley. It's like living on a boat, and counter space is at a huge premium, so a thing like this which allows me to just brush stuff from counter into the bucket without having to hold it or make room for it while I'm trying to prep my meals - man, it's awesome.The design is smart - the lip is narrow, however, so do measure the width of your drawers to be sure that they are not too wide. I expect this will be remedied in a later iteration of the product, but for now, be aware that if your drawers are thicker than about 7/8", this will not fit. However, there's a nice cutout (well, an indent) to accommodate your drawer handles, and a built-in pocket to hold the scraper that comes with it: it's a sturdy plastic card with a brush on one end for crumbs and flour or sugar, and a tapered side for sweeping bigger bits into the bowl. When you're done, you just pop the card back into the slot, and it's always where you need it.I love this thing and plan on buying several more to give as gifts - they're inexpensive and one of the most useful kitchen items I've tried in many years.

This is a great contraption and we use it daily in our kitchen.Pros:- Can go over most knobs and handles- Has a nice scraper brush- Very handy and minimizes trips to the dustbin during cooking and prepping- Perfect sizeCons:- The scraper brush performs well on the kitchen counter, but I wish it could also scrape things out of the scrap trap. The brush is too wide to get all the food residue out (especially if you have garlic or onion peels in the trap) and I end up using my hand every time.- The brush is not tightly secured inside the scrap trap and falls in the dustbin if you don't hold it while emptying the trap.However, the pros outweigh the cons and I still like using this item.

This is the best! And the scraper tool is just awesome. It’s so easy to clean. I just dump the contents into the under-the-sink compost a couple times a day, and give it a rinse. It’s so convenient. And it’s not an eye sore or in the way. It’s such a great price and adds a lot of convenience into our lives!

Fits snuggly over a drawer top and is not too large or intrusive. The little scraper with brush is effective.A really useful product, I now couldn’t manage without!

I like that it fits perfectly on my drawer while I am using the counter to cut up onions, carrots or whatever to free up counter space. The size is perfect and it can fit a lot of waste and is easy to remove and carry to garbage bin or compost. It is well made and sturdy. The attached brush is a great addition for clean up. Price is a little high but it is well made and I am sure it will last a long time. I am happy with my purchase.

This thing is great. It goes over drawers easily and even fits over the drawer knobs which is super handy. The little scraping brush is a nice touch and comes in handy.Holds a good amount of stuff too.I recommend this. It’s great not having to keep going back to the garbage or hang bags off the knobs or take up counter space for a junk bowl.

Does exactly what it says it does. Lives up to the hype :) so I'm very happy about it. Used to irritate me how I had to contain the scraps. This small detail really helps. Yes, it is a plastic container, but it is worth the price. I hate cooking enough as it is :) Sturdy. And even fits over my big drawer pull with room to spare. I can foresee people inquiring about it later on :D I recommend it!
