Okay, okay. I know - it's a butter dish, not a climate controlled, IoT Wi-Fi enabled, WPA2 encryption protected churned cream receptacle or anything, but even the "simple things" in life should be recognized and appreciated when they do something right.
Taking it back for a minute, please allow me to explain what my previous experiences with butter dishes was like before this one came along: basic. About as basic as they can possibly come. A simple, white, ceramic butter dish. Which was fine. It was fine. If you have one now, I'm sure you'll agree: it's fine.
But, now that I've had this one for a little while, I really can't find a reason to ever go back. Because here's what that classic ceramic one doesn't do:
1) Let me know at a simple glance how much butter is inside.
2) Allow me to completely remove the wrapper from the butter and yet still have the ability to know where to cut for an X-Tbsp sized portion
3) Sing to me*.
4) Feature a cover that helps to ensure that when I'm putting the lid back on, I'm not off center enough to smear butter all over the edge and/or inside of it.
5) Offer little ledges that help to ensure the butter doesn't go sliding out of the dish when I'm trying to balance a plate or an armful of dinner rolls in one hand, while clumsily attempting to butter things with the other.
The list goes on (I mean not really, but you get what I'm saying).
My point is: Divorce is an often ugly process, and one that can have serious, long-term, negative effects on all involved. Like when you find yourself in a tiny new apartment with about a tenth of what you once considered were things that belonged to you even though they were admittedly shared. And, how time and time again, while looking for a stick of softened butter to help make that perfect grilled cheese sandwich (as it's become a rather regular option for dinner these days), one shouldn't have to suffer each time they don't find that little, white, basic thing that in all honesty didn't do quite as good of a job as other dishes (like the one reviewed here) probably/should have been doing for the past 5-10 years or so.
So, really, what are you waiting for?
* This butter dish doesn't sing either. It's still awesome, though.
Hope this helps. Please let me know if you have any questions. But seriously, why would you? It's just a butter dish.

Envío: recibí el producto en menos de 24 horas, protegido y sin ningún tipo de golpe.Reviewed in Mexico on November 3, 2019
Producto: el producto es tal y como se muestra en las imágenes, con patas negras anti deslizantes, en la base blanca vienen marcadas unas medidas y la tapa transparente le da un toque agradable… es fácil de manipular, guardar, limpiar y no genera olores.
Contras:
*es ideal para barras de mantequilla de 150 gramos o mejor… (adjunto imagen de medidas de la base)
*el precio es un poco alto (198MXN), sin embargo, se contrarresta con la calidad de la marca y que el precio de la barra de mantequilla es menor a comprarlo en envases…
CONCLUSIÓN:
Recomiendo el producto ampliamente por la estética que le da al refrigerador… sin duda alguna lo volvería a comprar para regalar… si la encuentran en un precio menor no dejen ir la oportunidad… estoy súper satisfecho con mi compra, sin duda alguna OXO es calidad…

Es una mantequillera sencilla, pero está bien hecha. Es para una barra de tamaño normal y se puede partir con facilidad sin que resbale la mantequilla ni el plato porque tiene algo de gomas (es lo negro que se ve)que se agarran a la superficie y así no se mueve.Reviewed in Mexico on April 10, 2021
Fácil de lavar y mantener limpia porque la barra de mantequilla no queda justa. Es muy práctica para el refrigerador y muy presentable en la mesa.
Muy ligera y al mismo tiempo segura.
