• Makes serving easier- One of the most fundamental reasons for tray being so important is the serving reasons. A tray makes serving food and drinks easier. 
• It can also make cleaning up tidy and beautiful. Bring out the tray and leave it somewhere easy to stack and store things ready to clean and remove for a way to consolidate things as the night comes to a close.
• Versatile- rather than just a platter- you can reuse a tray in the bedroom to set the spa feel in a bathroom or to create a distinct area on a coffee table. 
• Trays also make thoughtful gifts because of how versatile they are. They elevate any space and are perfect for almost any occasion. 
• Trays also come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and colors. You can find one that will work for any mood or theme.
