The steps taken with the method of Quality Function Deployment, to process and interpreting consumer need for product specifications. Usability test is applied with satisfaction attribute performed to determine the level of user satisfaction through interview when subject using EASILY product. The result of this reserach show that EASILY have 4 components there are Cutting Board, Knife Holder, Food Holder, and Trash Tray. The subject feel comfortable while using EASILY after doing the usability testing. Recommendation for further reserach the product development can be done using another product design method, and the usability testing should using more respondent.
