KitchenCraft Art Deco-Style Carbon Steel Airtight Cake Storage Tin, 26 x 26 x 14.5 cm (10" x 10" x 5.5") - Multi-Colour

Very pleased with this. Robust tin, large, and two beautiful colours to match my kitchen. I am not using it as a bread tin/bin though, but somewhere instead to keep my special hand mixer and it parts, safely and together.

I really feel sorry for the review I am going to give this attractive biscuit tin (that is what it is) - it suits our blue styled kitchen really nicely and sits on our kitchen worktop adjacent to the coffee capsule containers. We really like it and despite its compact size, it can hold a large packet of biscuits such as digestives, or rich tea. We like the pastel shading and the general aesthetic appeal.So we like it, why 3 stars? A number of reasons, firstly price - at £10.76 as at 4th November 2017, this item isn't cheap, no it isn't expensive but it is a tin after all, even if it is carbon steel (mild steel is mild steel whether carbonised or not and the amount of carbon dictates what it is useful for), secondly they claim it is airtight - it isn't, there is no hermetic seal or any other form of seal, yes it has a tight fitting lid, but it isn't airtight like say a kilner jar, thirdly, I am not sure over time how durable it will be and I doubt that it will wear as good as a ceramic jar.In essence, we felt that this tin fitted in really nicely in our kitchen. Were its price point to be in the region of £4.99 I would have awarded it a 5 star rating - yes it is nicely designed, the colours are subtle and rich, but it is overpriced and were you requiring to store a large pack of biscuits over a couple of weeks, I believe that they would lose their crispness.

Looked quite small when it arrived but it easily fits 2/3 packs of biscuits in there. Looks very nice in person, very happy with it.

Bought for an 18yr old son with university bedroom in mind - he loves it and it's the perfect size (maybe a bit small if intended for family use with kids that eat a lot of biscuits). Very tasteful, lids fits snugly.

Perfect, really nice and bright looking tin with strong airtight lid. Just what I wanted. Thank you.

Though they have taken the shape of this from Nabisco's 1920s 'Uneeda' tin, and the font is a very vague update to a style of the time, any other reference to Art Deco is completely untraceable here: rather there's a visual clash between the 1920s box, the 1950s block colours and the distinctly 1980s graphic. It's a right dogs breakfast. There's also the point that Uneeda tins were quite small, as this one is, (because biscuits were packaged in smaller packets) and didn't really keep biscuits fresh (as I assume this one won't) because sealing technology and dessicants hadn't been developed.So you've got a retro tin that isn't very retro, that's a bit too small for your modern tube of biccies, that quite possibly won't keep biscuits fresh. It's not really selling itself, is it? The only use I can think of for it is that if you're into mid-century design, it looks like a quite convincing 1950s tin if you turn the graphic to the back wall.

Great tin, very large. I needed large tin to put cake I made in

Lovely Cake tin. Have given it to my daughter-in-law, she loves it.

Carinissima biscottiera, sulla durata non so, l’ho appena presa ma è decisamente bella da vedersi e il materiale mi sembra buono.
