A Five Star Review - Bread Box |
I've needed a new bread box for a long time. I searched on amazon for at least three months before finally taking the plunge and making the purchase.
Features That Were Important to Me:
- I wanted a roll-top bread box
- It needed to have two shelves inside
- Each shelf had to be deep enough and high enough to hold several loaves of bread
- There had to be room between the cupboard and top of the bread box so I could place things on top if necessary
- I wanted to spend less than $100
- It had to look attractive
- It could be chrome or wood
- I preferred it be pre-assembled
- I didn't want a glass door (I figured the glass would eventually break)
- Bamboo wood was preferred
This Bread Box Met 9 out of the 10 Criteria Items:

Which One of the 10 Criteria Items Did Not Get Met?
Unfortunately, I wasn't able to find one that met all of our needs that was pre-assembled.
However, like most of my sons, my husband is very good at assembling products, so I knew I could safely forfeit this preference.
After reading the reviews, a few comments expressed their dissatisfaction with the assembly process. But I have to say, my husband had absolutely no problem putting it together, but as I mentioned, he's good at such things.
If I had to personally assemble it, I would not have purchased any item that required putting it together --- only because I suck at that stuff! Fortunately, hubby handled that.

The Only Fix We Had To Make
When the roll-top door is closed (without care), it makes a loud noise. Since so many people live in our home, I knew I couldn't police that behavior, so we solved the problem by putting two tiny velcro tabs on the bottom. The tabs prevent the door from hitting the base, and it's much quieter.

We Purchased the Bread Box From Amazon
When typing this, I noticed that this specific bread box wasn't appearing on the USA site. But
here's a link to a similar one (from what I could tell)... Both of them are the same size ... 15" by 9.8" by 14.2"
Five stars. Recommended.
