| Type | How it fits | Best for | Downside |
|---|---|---|---|
| Expandable tray | Spring-out wings fill the width | Odd-width drawers, renters | Wing pockets are shallower |
| Fixed tray | Rigid, sized to standard drawers | Drawers a standard size fits | A centimeter off means sliding |
| Adjustable divider rails | Movable walls, no preset pockets | Gadget drawers: peelers, tongs, gear | Cutlery does better in shaped slots |
| Two-tier sliding tray | Upper deck slides over the lower | Deep drawers, big households | Needs height; upper deck hides the lower |
