The legs allow water to drain efficiently. It can be used as a temporary place for washed vegetables or as a draining basket for rice bowls.
I am very satisfied with my order, everything is nicely and thoughtfully packaged, there are no damage of any kind. I am a big fan of Japanese kitchenware and Japanese aesthetics, so thrilled that I find a reliable on line merchant who provides international sales. I will be ordering more in the near future and I have told all my friends about your site. Please keep up the good work, your great service is greatly appreciated.
