Let's face it, sometimes we wish we didn't have to eat.
Maintaining a healthy diet for yourself and the people you regularly feed can be time-consuming, mentally draining, and outright messy at times. Some nights, cooking and cleaning up sound so overwhelming that you want to open DoorDash and call it a day.
We developed the Totem Axis to assist every mealtime from start to finish.
Our stackable table innovation provides an ease to:
- Mothers feed their families.
- Professional chefs serve 60 tables a night.
- Food influencers are pushing new meal ideas.
- Even for the dishwashers in the back during rush hour.
If you are still unfamiliar with the design of our debut serving tray, I recommend you learn more about its features on our website under the tab "Totem Axis."
Extended research helped us discover key aspects of cooking that people despise altogether. These recurring complaints developed Totem's mission to ease the mealtime process for good. Totem products are designed with one goal in mind for our customers:
They should spend more time bonding with their loved ones while limiting time spent on cleanup.
A commodity we always hear is:
"After eating, we are always full! (lazy) Nobody wants to clean up again, so the mess gets left where it is!"
A well-cooked home meal will always leave us feeling relaxed, and we should not be ashamed when we think that way. When using Totem, cleanup becomes more straightforward and faster than ever before. It takes just a few minutes to:
- Remove the top plates into the dishwasher
- Wipe down the base plates and the axle of any excess food
- Disassemble the tray and store it safely
Its ability to reduce the number of plates to carry to the sink and its ability to save time doing dishes both make it a secret weapon for easy cleanup.
This reply is another relatable misfortune that any cook has experienced.
"The loneliness is the worst; I beg my family to keep me company while I cook for them."
Cooking and even eating can be lonely without somebody to share the experience with. It's not always that the family doesn't want to help; it could be that they don't know how. By integrating Totem into the kitchen, a family is given the chance to connect by indulging in an interactive experience with their dinner.
Stacked food draws the attention of everyone, even kids. It is naturally stimulating to see your favorite meal displayed completely new and invitingly. (No more 'forcing' family to eat at home.)
This point leads us to a similar topic we often hear.
"It hurts knowing that most people eating my food have no idea, and thus don't appreciate, how much work I put into it."
Each cook is alike in how much pride they put into their work. Some families are blessed with exceptionally skilled parents who provide great meals as a norm (if you relate, go thank your Mother right now). It can certainly hurt when a meal isn't appreciated by the people you serve; you can only look back on the last three hours that went into it.
A simple way to create a visually appealing dish is to stack the food and give it a customized display that draws the attention of your guests. A vertical presentation creates an aroma that forces the eyes to wander and observe closer; this element naturally becomes a conversation starter in settings where the ice has yet to be broken.
We kept this in mind with Totem's stackable design. A fantastic meal deserves to be shown off and remembered! The Totem Axis is the final puzzle piece to creating that perfect meal, and it will surely express to your guests how much effort went into it.
It is all too relatable when people complain about cooking and its tedious processes; at Totem, we feel you. We are conscious of our customers' quality of life and driven to improve it.
The Totem Axis, as we say, is just the beginning. Totem and the founders dream of revolutionizing mealtime and simplifying it for good. Totem products bring life to the table and serve as a new way to create lasting memories with your guests.
