Kamenstein Natural Hardwood Rolltop Bread Box

Product Review

Constructed primarily of 1/2-inch blond hardwood with a pleasant grain and smooth semigloss finish, this footless breadbox rests flush on the countertop. The wood is augmented by 1/8-inch-thick Masonite panels on back and sides, and overall construction is both aesthetically pleasing and sturdy. Panels are well supported by deep slots/shelves in the hardwood components. The 3/4-inch-wide roll-top slats glide smoothly on deep tracks. This box holds a full loaf of bread plus a partial loaf or several rolls without crowding. Designed to prolong the countertop freshness of baked goods, this roll top breadbox will also add an attractive, old-fashioned touch to your kitchen. --Toni Reineke

Keeps bread crumbs off the counter :), October 10, 2000

You can keep two small loaves or one large sliced loaf of bread in this bread box. If you freeze bread and then let it thaw in the bread box, that is not a good idea! What you will have is moist, moldy bread. Lesson learned at our house. It is perfect for keeping fresh bread fresh!

It is also handy for keeping the kitchen phone out of the way. Ours fits on top and then a little box of tea sits up on the top as well. It has a nice roll top, but don't try to put bottles of vitamins, etc. in this. We couldn't get ours open since the bottles moved to the back of the box and then the lid wouldn't roll back. Just in case you were thinking of using it for something else!

Kamenstein Rolltop Bread Box, July 23, 2005

This is a rugged, beautifully designed and constructed storage box. I bought one several years ago, have been delighted with it, and have just bought a second one to keep my health supplements in (conveniently out of sight).

CAUTION: Do not confuse this product with a smaller and lighter Rolltop Bread Box also made by Kamenstein. It is only 7-1/4" in height, and has much less capacity. (I was shipped one of these smaller boxes by mistake, by an Amazon Used Goods supplier, who had to return my money.)

ALSO avoid cheaper, not-so-well-built lookalike products sold by retailers like Linens N Things, such as the Pomerantz Ultimate Bread Box, which I bought by mistake, and ended up discarding.

I just got this breadbox, and I am already in love with it. :) I could not believe the quality of it, it was OUTSTANDING! Also, the price was wonderful. If you are in the market for a breadbox, I would recommend purchasing this one!
