This is my second drum-shaped sugar bowl. I love all of my Portmeirion Botanic Garden pieces, but I seem to be a bit clumsy with the lids for this sugar bowl! The little handle/knob on top is handy (that is why I chose it over the more rounded bowl) but the lip of the lid is relatively shallow and the lid can be dislodge without too much difficulty. I managed to knock the first lid off and shatter it. During use the second lid has chipped enough to be noticeable, but not to affect use. If you have small children you may wish to leave the lid off if only for your peace of mind! When cost of shipping is added on, it is less expensive to replace the entire set than to just purchase a replacement lid!

We actually use this for margarine. It keeps it fresh and looks great on the table. I would recommend buying this product. It is dishwasher safer.

I ordered this drum-shaped covered sugar bowl to replace one that my Wife broke the lid on. From the pictures on Amazon, I thought it was an identical match to the one that was broken but when we received it, we found that it is slightly (only slightly) smaller than our original. It is exactly what was advertised by Amazon but I jumped to the conclusion that they would be the same and they aren't - it is no big deal, my Wife is very happy with the new one but it was a surprise that they were so close to each other and both from the Portmerion Botanic Garden collection. We are happy!

I was thrilled to be able to purchase the Portmerion Sugar Bowl that matched my pattern. It is just want I wanted and was delivered promptly.

When my butter keeper broke and couldn't be repaired the only ones I could find were the kind you have to put water in. I just wanted something to hold a stick of butter. This is perfect. Thanks to Christmas I now have three of them, so one can be in the dishwasher while another is in use.

this Sugar bowl came in wrapped very safely and in perfect condition. I am very happy with the supplier. Lid is solid with no opening to leave a spoon in it so I cannot leave a spoon in it like I used to with my old sugar bowl. But I can get used to that.

I ordered this and it arrived broken and was very poorly packed. A disappointment would be putting it lightly.
