Continuing their compact and clever kitchen designs, Joseph Joseph have released the new 'Chop & Rinse' which combines several bulky items into a single sleek design. Available from the end of June, the 'Chop and Rinse' acts as a single unit for preparing fruits and veg. The hinged chopping board allows you to quickly cut your vegetables, and then transforms into a triangular chute. The closed end features a perforated surface that acts as a colander as you wash your food then when finished the chute neatly tips everything into your bowl. Dishwasher-safe and featuring a non-slip rubber edge, the 'Chop& Rinse' is a fabulous gift for University students or those starting off in their first flat. Available in green, white, red and grey the Joseph Joseph 'Chop and Rinse' is £14.95 from PrezzyBox.

Rather than constantly struggle with the mental arithmetic, why not add the Conversions Worktop Saver to your kitchen.

A fabulous board for small kitchens, the Dual Chopping board by Joseph Joseph adapts to each situation. Normally I'm not convinced by two part chopping boards, but in the Small Dual it works exceptionally well. A compact board, the Small Dual is 28.5 x 19.5 cm (or 11.25 x 7.75 inches). This offers a reasonable workspace, that doesn't take up your whole countertop. If more cutting space is needed the board separates into two, instantly providing twice the space; and due to the small size, it's easy to shift the boards out of the way till needed. By offering both a plastic and wood surface, the Dual provides the best of both worlds; the beauty and durability of beech, as well as the hygienic dishwasher safe polypropylene. All four sides of the board can be used, and four magnets clip the two together for easy storage. The Joseph Joseph Small Dual Chopping board is available in Baby Blue, Sage Green and Bright White for £19.97 fom Amazon UK

Current hygiene standards suggest that several cutting boards are needed in the kitchen. They recommend that ingredients be grouped into meats, vegetables and processed foods; and that a separate board be dedicated to each group to minimise the cross-contaminations. I don't know about your kitchen, but mine is short on space as it is. As a result cutting boards often end up stacked, which doesn't seem to solve the issues of cross-contamination. Eva Solo has designed an elegant unit that offers a workable solution to both hygiene and space issues. The Eva Solo set includes three sweeping white cutting boards, each featuring an identifying icon in the corner. All dishwasher safe, A simplified steak marks the meat board, a graphic carrot identifies the vegetable board, while a knife and fork mark the prepared food board. When placed in the cylindrical aluminium holder, the boards layer to create a sophisticated wave like effect that easily reveals the identifying icon in the corner. The aluminium holder ensures that each board dries separately and prevents contact between them. A compact unit that you'll be happy to display on your counter, Eva Solo have created a fabulous design that captures the beauty in functional design. Eva Solo Cutting Boards are available from Amazon.co.uk for £58.50.
