T294 Butter/Terrine Dish with Lid, White

The product is lovely and exactly what I wanted, it is the perfect size for half a block of butter, the delivery however was very disappointing, promised next day on a Friday, let down by Amazon and rescheduled for Saturday, let down agin, finally arrived on the Sunday !!!!!!

I bought the 13.5 x 9 x 11cm one. Measurements seem a bit exaggerated to me. If they were the measurements given, a standard pack of butter would fit in no problem, but you have to just push the butter down to persuade it into the last bit(the dimensions narrow lower down you see). Not a huge deal but definitely worth mentioning. If I was the seller I would give potential customers the dimensions of the narrowest length and width so there can be no mistake. Or why not both the narrowest and widest? Knowledge is power. Otherwise it's a nice little butter dish - microwave proof apparently though I've not tested this. Looks fine. Washes OK. Feels like the lid might break if I gave it a good knock but I guess that's always a risk with such a material. The only other thing I would warn people about is the handle - it's fine for me, but if you have arthritic hands you might want something more substantial or with a hole in.

This butter dish is exceptionally small but that is the point. Just chop a piece off the block, enough to last a day and keep the rest in the fridge. Perfect for a single or couple to use. Well made. Good quality. I would recommend.

Bought the 11x8 size initially, but had to return it because it was substandard (lid was very poor fit with gaps around the edges, handle on lid was not stuck on square, several marks in the porcelain. 2nd time round, went for the larger size (13.5 x 11). Lid fits a bit better but not a snug fit at all. Also there are marks in the porcelain. Can't be bothered to send a second one back, and it's just about acceptable. A far as size is concerned, the small one (11x8) comfortably takes one third of a standard 250g block of butter. The 13.5 x 11 takes a 250g block of butter (at a squeeze) but will be better for 1/2 to 2/3rds of a 250g block. The supplier needs to be more honest about the product. They feel like seconds, and if advertised as such I would accept the butter dishes without a quibble (particularly the 13.5 x11 @ £9.99).

Not easy to find containers big enough to hold supermarket spread tubs - this one (large) holds a 500g Benecol tub easily. The dish lid sits on the rim of the tub so I used the kitchen scissors to trim the top of the tub and the lid now sits squarely on the dish. Took about 10 seconds to fix. Looks good on the table instead of the commercial packaging on view. It is heavy and quite large so needs a two handed lift out of the fridge. The knob on the lid is quite small so buttery fingers beware. I have managed to smash three dish lids on the kitchen floor and as Lakeland had discontinued their dishes I was getting desperate until I fiound this one. Good old Amazon - item ordered on Saturday delivered on Sunday

I purchased the 2nd size up as I understood from answers given by others that a 250g butter block would fit in. The product details show measurement as 13.5x11x9cm but when the dish arrived today I noticed that label on bottom of dish shows size to be 13x10.5x8.5cm so smaller all round. I checked measurements and the label is correct and the product details on Amazon are therefore incorrect. Mores to the point a 250g butter block does not quite fit in which is the most disappointing aspect. Not sure whether product size has changed or if had the dish been the size shown on Amazon whether a 250g butter block would then have fitted in.

Lovely dish but it was tiny. Would not fit even half a pack of butter! I have had to order the largest one now as was not convinced that the next size up would be big enough either.

Perfect for half a pound of butter - the dish design means that the butter is contained and doesn't spread all over the place like the domed lid type do. Spot on design & good quality.
