Yamazaki Home Metal Bread Box with Wooden Lid - Slim Space Saving Countertop Storage for Bread, Buns & Pastries - Perfect for Kitchen, Pantry & Small Spaces

I’m at the age where a Breadbox can totally be sexy and this one is probably the sexiest one I’ve seen!This helps hide so much countertop clutter without looking like an old, stale, Rea Dunn style breadbox. It’s so sleek, smooth and modern. Best of all there are no stupid words advertising what the products intent is. I know it’s a breadbox! I don’t need to be reminded “hey, you put bread in me” every time I walk into my kitchen. I don’t understand the word labeling culture of every little spoon, mug, canister, etc. I love that I can freely use this for storage of any kind without feeling like I’m committing some kind of horrible kitchen sin! The manufacturer knew I could be responsible and make my own choices of what to put inside this “bread” box and I love this new found freedom in a sea of kitchen accessory commandments. Please don’t think me too wild, or that I’m abusing this freedom but I think I’m going to purchase another one for my kitty food. The only thing preventing me from purchasing a second one right away is the price. I will have to wait until after the holidays/new year before spending another $120 on a metal box. I’m not normally one to splurge on items like this. Much less two of the same item but in this case I really feel like a second one will just bring me double the joy every time I walk into my kitchen or when I here that magnetic click that sings to my soul. I will be watching this item in hopes it goes on sale! If this breadbox was priced at $75 instead of $120 I’d buy 3 more in a heartbeat!I did have to really talk myself into spending this much for a breadbox. Especially since online purchases can be a gamble. I didn’t know what was going to arrive or in what shape. I had originally hoped I could find a decent breadbox for around $35-$65. I never imagined I’d fall in love with one that cost $120! What really sold me is the fact I can fit a ton in this box. It’s at least double the size of a normal, typical breadbox. I have fit 4 loaves of Pepperidge Farm bread and 2 family size bags of Lays potato chips inside this box at once! It was getting a bit tight but it all fit and the bread didn’t get damaged! The door and magnetic seal combo is perfect! The door helps to gently guide everything in place and the magnetic seal keeps everything inside, especially when packed full.If you’re on the fence about spending this much, it truly is a super nice breadbox! Due to how much it holds it’s really like having two normal sized breadboxes in one. It also seems pretty sturdy. I’d feel confident setting my microwave on top of it except I’d be worried about scratching the surface. I have noticed I am very protective over my breadbox! I think thats all related to how much I spent on it. I almost wanted to buy satin gloves for my family members and insist they put those on before touching my precious breadbox but instead I’ve just decided to be the official breadbox attendant. I know I couldn’t trust them to truly love this breadbox as much as I do, but then again, they don’t know how much I paid. Or that I’m planning on paying that much for a second time in the next few months…thank the Kitchen Gods my family doesn’t share an Amazon account lol!
