I was really impressed with the overall quality of the Chef's Path Containers. The three-piece set came stacked inside a sealed box, also including a set of six reusable chalkboard stickers, a white chalk marker pen and a measuring spoon set (ideal for those who are concerned about portion control).
The plastic feels thick and durable, and unlike some storage containers, it was clear that these would be more hardwearing as they were built to last.
Each container is big enough to fit a standard-sized box of cereal, however, they could also easily be used for other kitchen essentials such as pasta, rice, flour or nuts.
I would never trust my seven-year-old to pour cereal out of a regular cereal box (unless I wanted to be finding Cheerios on my kitchen floor for days), so the pouring spout on the lid was a great addition. Due to the location of the spout, some cereal does need a bit of ‘encouraging’ or a slight shake of the container to keep a continuous flow, especially when the box is at a low capacity. Overall it worked well though, and the ergonomic-shaped grip made them easy to hold, even for small hands.
