This bread box was ordered for homemade bread. The outside box was in normal condition but inside, the package which was specific for the bread box was torn all the way through and the bread box was damaged. It had dents in it and we returned it. We decided we would look at a different type of bread box.I was tired of the bread taking up space in the fridge, and it looked tacky piled up on a counter corner in the kitchen. When I saw this breadbox, I knew it would at least look decent on the counter top, and it does. It holds a loaf of sliced bread, a package of hamburger or hot dog buns, and then perhaps some other slim item like a baguette or tortillas. So, it doesn't always hold everything we have on hand (e.g. we might have bread, buns and a pack of biscuits), but it's big enough, and I don't think I'd want it bigger because then it would take up too much counter space. Looks good and comes assembled. The only small critique is that the metal is thin and a little flimsy feeling--not super solid and heavy--but that's ok given the price and the fact that we're not manhandling it.I have bought this product in the past in the medium size and it has been a great bread box. I am however disappointed in one of my more recent purchases of the same item in the large size. The one that was recently delivered to me came in the wrong color. The actual manufacturer box showed the correct color but the brown exterior box was mislabeled. I've reordered and am hoping that this time I get the right color. Otherwise, I'm sure I'll be just as satisfied with the large as I have been with the medium.Storing bread to keep it fresh and litter the counter.I have purchased Brabantia products in the past, and they were made in Europe. This breadbox is made in China, will not matter to everyone, but it has lost me as a future customer of Brabantia products.Seller and packaging was great but I am not loving this bread bin for the price. Sure it looks good and the door has a very smooth glide but its a tad flimsy for the price. If it was more sturdy, I would love it. Certainly shiny and bright - the main reason I bought it, big enough for two loaves...but as I said a tad flimsy.Looks great in the kitchen. I would buy again.It was exactly as pictured. I use it for bread,buns, and bagels. It fits perfectly on my kitchen counter. No more messy scattered bags. I like the compact size,it looks great too.Looking through the rest of the reviews I can't believe no one else has mentioned this. I have no issue with the look or functionality of the bread bin but the inside metal part, which is exposed when the lid is up, is knife sharp. I cut myself months ago on it and thought ok, that's not ideal but kept the bin. I am currently nursing another very sore cut, under my nail, which happened when I reached in yesterday. A definite hazard which I think brabantia should address..For many years, I had a old wooden bread bin so I thought it was time for a change. I trust Brabantia and they make premium products. This bread bin is no exception. The roll top lid opens back and forth quite easily so it's easy to get to your bread. The bread bin itself is quite large and depthy though I can really only fit one loaf of bread in here at a time. If you try fitting two in, the roll top won't go back any further because of the bread blocking it. But that's not a huge deal. I also bought the Brabantia metal canisters which I've put on top of it. They all looks pretty nice.Good bread bin. A couple of minor flaws, feet are quite slippy, so often moves when being used. Also was not quite finished well when received, but so minor, just kept it. 4 out of 5 is a good score for this product.Agonised for ages before going for this one, thinking the brand was good, as I wanted to buy a matching set (bread bin, canisters and kitchen bin all in matt steel to match my cooker). It does look smart and I keep my bread, crackers and crispbreads in mine. However, despite wiping with e-cloths and buffing dry, the roll top/front hasn't stayed entirely blemish free. I also bought a matching set of canisters to put on the top and was disappointed to find that the top of the breadbin is rather thin and 'bouncy', so when the canisters are taken off and put back on they all wobble!Bought this to replace[place my old Brabantia breadbin which I’d had for many years. Really pleased with my new addition hope it last as long as my old one
