3.0 out of 5 stars Nice box but too small for large tea bags, October 13, 2009

This tea box is beautiful and well made. It would make a great box for anyone who uses tea in smaller bags. However, I use it for [...]tea and the packages are a bit big for the box. You can squeeze them in but you can't fit as many as it says you should be able to do. Also, the description says the dividers are removable, which was a big selling point for me, but they are not.

3.0 out of 5 stars Nice Looking Box, Though Not The Best Construction..., January 18, 2011

This review is from: Lipper Divided Bamboo Tea Box with Clear Lid (Kitchen)

I drink a LOT of tea, and was tired of having a million different tea boxes sitting on my counter. I loved the glass-top of this box and that it holds 8 different types of tea as opposed to many other boxes that only hold 6. I noticed another reviewer mention that his inserts were not removable...this was not a factor in purchasing for me, but the box I received DOES have removable inserts. So just a heads up they have fixed this error.

Unfortunately, while this box LOOKS very nice sitting on my counter, and it does in fact do what it says it does, it's not put together very well. On my box, where the wood slab on the right side connects to the wood slab along the back, it is not held together (I included photos above). This means if I'm not very careful I could rip the whole box apart. Also, because the seam isn't sealed, the lid sits crookedly. I'll fix this by buying some wood glue and securing it myself, but the overall feel of the box is very light. This is by no means a heavy tea box.

Overall, I'm just a little less than satisfied with this purchase, but not so much that I'll return it. It's an attractive box, and MUCH better than all the small tea boxes I had out, but as for other people looking to buy, I think I'd recommend finding something a bit more sturdy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful tea box!, March 15, 2010

This tea box is beautiful! I love the large size - 4 rows instead of 3 - and the clear lid so I can see what is (and isn't!) inside. I can fit one whole box of Bigelow brand tea, which are individually wrapped, in one square. I have since purchased 2 more for gifts and I feel really good about this box being made from Bamboo which is an environmentally friendly choice. Thanks Lipper!
