How many times have you set the table for an informal dinner with family, friends and that random acquaintance that one of them is hooking up with just to realise that not everyone is hungry at the same time.

Catch-ups and laughs and sneaky smokes around the corner cause minor dishevelments amongst the group and people end up grabbing plates of your slaved-over meal at different times – generally a little too late. Then, casualty strikes: people ruin your food by putting it in the microwave. Eish.

Not to worry though, there is always a solution and this one is definitely one for the books kitchen: just hook yourself up with the Wellberg Rectangular Stoneware Food-Warmer Set for R319 Including Delivery (18% Off).
