Am eyeing up stacking food storage with the coloured lids and also the stacking bowls.
Does anyone have them & do they wear well?
Currently have quite a mish mash of things & I think these would please DH (although he can pry my old pudding basins from my cold dead hands).
Generally I don’t find plastic mixing bowls that good, but perhaps these are different.

I don’t know if I’m just hoping they will somehow just magic up space in my somewhat overstretched & badly organised cupboards. Tia.

The best veggie knife I’ve ever had was a really, really cheap one. Had it 15 years & finally broke it a few months ago levering something stupid :(
So I’ll not replace with a JJ one given your reviews.
I do need a spaghetti measurer tho.

The rice cooker is excellent

Zomg, I’ve just seen the under shelf spice storage. Am ordering and will feed back. Spices are the bane of my life,

Again the JJ knives are so disappointing. Good knives but fell apart after 4 years with the rubber coming away.

JJ customer service was rubbish.
Wanted the receipts Confused
Wanted photographs even though they had been sent twice Hmm
Wanted to know how often they had been used Confused
Wanted to know what temperature the dishwasher was and how many times they had been put through the dishwasherHmm

Needless to say I gave up

I can’t believe no one has mentioned the JJ bin! It holds a separate food waste caddy and two types of recycling as well as rubbish and makes me happy every time I use it.

The utensil holder is a pain, though, unless you don’t ever use the bottom utensils. The magnets don’t work for stacking and hanging unless all the utensils are in place.

Have had the bowls for approx ten years, there is some fading on the red bowl. Chopping board and utensils for five years, love them all

Their chopping boards are unreal. I've always been a wooden board fan but DH had a set for many years and they are still going strong.

Foxinsocks1 · 07/07/2020 11:36

We’ve had the chopping boards at least 10 years and they need replacing but I still think it’s good going.
The rainbow bowls are great, had them about 2 years.
We have the magnetic utensils and one of the magnets has gone so whilst they’re useful we need somewhere to store them now. Wouldn’t buy them again.

My cutlery holder & spice rack have arrived & I am very pleased!

I’ve only just discovered the jj brand, ordered one thing for my bathroom and loved it and have since ordered 2 more things to match.

FrogFairy · 07/07/2020 14:14

Going of on a slight tangent but Oxo Good Grips stuff is very good.

Bottomplasters · 07/07/2020 14:19

What do you all love the bowls for?

I got them but I can't see the measurements on them so use my manky measuring jug instead

ticktackted · 10/07/2020 17:34

I've had the bowl set for 10 years, love it! The seive & full cup measure have some heat damage but still work. I can't see the measurements easily on the small bowl, but it's still a really useful bowl.

Not kitchen related but I bought the toilet brush (am I even a real musmnetter?) As I thought it being silicone it would not harbour as many germs. But it's dead awkward to use to scrub the loo.

PenelopePitstop49 · 11/07/2020 19:36

I've got the stacking colour plastic lunchboxes and they've been a huge disappointment. The glass ones are better, but the lids are quite awkward to get on and off.

The folding chopping board didn't last, and I've got 2 of the boxed chopping boards that again are really disappointing... less than a year old and look knackered. I'm falling a bit out of love with the quality tbh. The dishdrainer is still going strong though, but is a little fiddly to clean.
