4.0 out of 5 stars
Attractive to people AND bugs, November 3, 2004
This review is from: Blomus 63073 Cylo Stainless-Steel Sugar Bowl (Kitchen)
First off, this thing is beautiful, as sugar bowls go. It's simple, made of high-quality brushed metal, and the lid fits easily but securely onto the top. It's slightly smaller than I had imagined, but it still holds enough sugar to serve most people's purposes.
The downside is that both of the holes in the lid -- the finger hole that allows one to open the lid, and the notch that allows a spoon to be left in the bowl while the lid is in place -- are completely open. One could simply stick one's finger through that central hole and right into the sugar. While this isn't necessarily a problem under normal circumstances, it could prove to be frustrating if one has an insect problem. Instead of a closed bowl that would keep bugs out, this one is eternally open to anyone and anything that wants to get in.
In short, this is an attractive, functional, high quality sugar bowl. Just don't expect it to keep anything out of your sugar.
