The Super Chic Magnetic Organizer That Instantly Corralled My Coffee Filters

As a shopping editor, I’ve collected so much coffee over the years (and accessories to accompany my java) I could probably open my own shop at this point. So yes, that means my kitchen cabinets are busting at the seams. I like to make my morning cup differently almost every day. I’ll switch from a French Press to a single pour-over to the instant stuff — yes, I’ve actually found a good version that gives that icky grocery store version a run for its money. While I’m still on the hunt for a space-saving way to store my actual coffee beans, I recently solved a different issue: storing my coffee filters.

For the last year, I’ve kept my single-serve coffee filters in the plastic packaging they came in, and it’s been a total nightmare to store in my kitchen cabinets. The plastic is torn to shreds and barely keeps the filters together. When I’m done grabbing one, I simply shove the pack into the cabinet wherever I can find a tiny crevice that they’ll fit in. But I recently discovered Yamazaki’s Magnetic Coffee Filter Case, and it makes reaching for my filter each morning way less stressful.

This sturdy, magnetic organizer from editor-favorite Japanese organizing brand Yamazaki perfectly holds my single coffee filters (it fits size 04 filters, specifically). I attached it to the side of my fridge, so it’s completely out of view. The upright, steel design prevents your filters from getting crumpled in a drawer or cabinet, so you can reach for a crisp filter every time. The wooden rod inside the container also keeps them together, so it looks neat and tidy. Best of all, no assembly is required — simply stick it on a magnetic surface once you unbox it, and you’re ready to make your morning coffee session a lot easier.

When I’m half asleep in the morning, the last thing I want to do is dig around my kitchen cabinets to find a coffee filter. Yamazaki’s sleek and durable coffee filter case has completely eliminated that stressor, so my mornings can run smoother. I also love that it keeps my filters nice and crisp — because there’s nothing worse than wrinkled filters. While I have it hidden on the side of my fridge, the design is so chic that I wouldn’t mind having it displayed proudly. The magnetic design also makes it a breeze to attach and remove.

And I’m not the only one who’s blown away by this nifty product. One reviewer raved: “The coffee filter holder is a dream come true. It attaches neatly to the side of my Yamakazi bread box. Both have really strong magnets. Now my morning coffee ritual is stream-lined and attractive!”

At just $27, this small, but mighty product packs a punch. If you’re looking to upgrade your entire coffee routine, Yamazaki also make a bunch of other equally gorgeous and functional items that’ll upgrade your kitchen.
