Expert Review and  Insights

The APS set is a real workhorse for any high-turnover establishment. It strikes that perfect balance between looking smart enough for a restaurant table and  being tough enough to survive it. The design is no-fuss, which in a busy service is exactly what you want – it's stable, easy to grab, and  even easier to clean. It does its job reliably and  without drawing unnecessary attention.

  • Practical Build: The combination of glass and  steel is brilliant for hygiene and  durability.
  • Single Oil/Vinegar Bottle: Only holds one liquid, so it's either/or unless you buy two sets.

Case Study: Real Business, Real Results

The Olive Branch, a family-run Italian eatery in Exeter, was looking to replace their collection of mismatched and  worn-out condiment shakers. They needed a unified solution that was sturdy, looked professional, and  reflected the quality of their food.

"We were tired of our tables looking messy. This APS set immediately made everything look sharper and  more deliberate. They are easy for the team to clean and  refill, and  they're heavy enough that they don't get knocked over easily. A small change that made a big impact on our presentation."

Michael Edwards – Owner, The Olive Branch

The upgrade resulted in a noticeable improvement in table presentation and  a 100% reduction in breakages compared to their previous, cheaper shakers in the first three months.

Installation and  Maintenance Guide

Setting It Up

  • Upon arrival, carefully unpack all components from the box.
  • Before the first use, wash the glass cruets and  bottle thoroughly with warm, soapy water and  dry completely.
  • Wipe down the stainless steel and  plastic stand with a damp cloth.
  • Fill the shakers with salt and  pepper, and  the bottle with your chosen oil or vinegar.
  • Place the filled cruets into the stand, ready for the table.

Keeping It Going

  • Wipe the stand daily with a food-safe sanitiser to maintain hygiene.
  • Check condiment levels at the end of each service to ensure they're ready for the next day.
  • For a deep clean, the glass components can be placed in a dishwasher. Handwash the stand to preserve the finish.
  • Regularly check glass cruets for any chips or cracks and  replace if necessary.

Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Condiment Set

Not sure which condiment set is right for your business? Here are a few things to keep in mind to make the perfect choice.

Material Matters

Look for durable materials like stainless steel and  glass. They not only look more professional than plastic but also stand up better to constant use and  cleaning, saving you money on replacements.

Consider the Footprint

Table space is precious. A set with a compact, vertical stand, like this one, keeps condiments organised without crowding the table, especially important for smaller two-person tables.

Check for Visibility

Clear glass cruets are a must-have. They allow your staff to see fill levels at a glance, preventing the awkward moment when a customer is left with an empty shaker.

Ease of Cleaning

Choose sets with smooth, simple designs. Fewer nooks and  crannies mean quicker, more effective cleaning, which is essential for maintaining food hygiene standards in a commercial kitchen.

Match Your Style

Consider your décor. A classic stainless steel finish, like on the APS CF296 cruet set, is versatile and  fits well with modern, traditional, and  rustic themes alike.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Are the bottles and  shakers made from glass or plastic?

A: The cruets are made from high-quality, durable glass for a professional feel and  easy visibility of the contents.

Q: Can I put the set in the dishwasher?

A: The glass cruets are generally dishwasher safe. However, to keep the stainless steel stand looking its best, we recommend wiping it clean by hand with a damp cloth and  mild detergent.

Q: What are the exact dimensions of the assembled set?

A: The set stands 215mm tall and  has a base footprint of 115mm by 54mm, making it compact enough for most tables.

Q: Is the stand weighted to prevent it from tipping over?

A: Yes, the stainless steel construction and  solid base give it a low centre of gravity, making it very stable on the table.

Q: What comes in the box?

A: You will receive the stainless steel and  plastic stand, one salt shaker, one pepper shaker, and  one larger bottle suitable for oil or vinegar.

Q: Can I buy replacement glass shakers if one breaks?

A: Yes, spare cruets can be purchased separately, which is a cost-effective way to maintain your sets over the long term.

Q: What is the base of the holder made from?

A: The base is made from a tough black plastic, designed to protect your tables from scratches and  prevent the stand from sliding.

Q: Is this set suitable for outdoor seating areas?

A: Absolutely. The stainless steel is resistant to rust, making it a great choice for beer gardens or patio seating, though we recommend bringing it indoors overnight.

How a Simple Stand Protects Your Tables and  Your Time

You might just see a stand, but the combination of a stainless steel holder with a black plastic base is a clever piece of practical design. The stainless steel provides the weight and  premium finish that feels quality in a customer's hand. But the real hero is the often-overlooked plastic base.

Think of it as the sole of a good shoe. It stops the hard steel from scratching or scuffing your wooden or laminate tabletops, which can be costly to repair. It also provides a non-slip grip, so the set stays put, even on a slick, freshly wiped surface. For your staff, this means fewer spills to clean up and  a base that resists stains from oil or vinegar, wiping clean in a second. It's a small detail that saves you money on table repairs and  your team valuable time during a busy service.
