Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of RSVP Endurance® Salt Server with Spoon
Customer Review: Extremely Useful, but Easily Confused With a Sugar Bowl...
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this because Alton Brown has one, and it seemed really useful. It's so handy to have salt in an open vessel like this when cooking, as opposed to breaking out a salt shaker. I absolutely love it and use it every time I cook, but a word of caution: on several occasions, unsuspecting guests who are not fans of Alton Brown have confused the Salt Vault with a sugar bowl and salted their coffee/tea. If you're going to keep yours out in the open, make sure to either label it or warn people that it isn't sugar!Customer Review: like Alton Brown's salt cellar
Summary: 5 Stars
We use this in the kitchen, just like Alton Brown (this one isn't endorsed by him, but we couldn't find one that is). It's a great way to get to our salt for adding to recipes, rather than trying to dump it out of those little spouts on the boxes. I can hold and open it with one hand and reach in with the other for anything from a pinch to a spoonful. The dish comes out of the base for easy cleaning as well. And the little spoon allows for easy use serving at dinner as well. So it's multi-functional.Customer Review: Ironic Name
Summary: 1 Stars
For something called "Endurance" the lid broke off the first time I hand washed it. Very cheaply made in the hinge area with no way to repair the hinge pin. I'm mystified as to how it was attached in the first place. It's almost like it was glued. I couldn't find any solder or a weld joint.
To echo the some of the other reviews this is most definitely NOT the one used by Alton Brown. The lack of the vertical handle is a shortcoming when you try to open it one handed off of the counter.
Customer Review: Nice gift for cookers
Summary: 4 Stars
I got this from a friend for my b'day.
PROS: I wish the stainless steel was brushed as it gets all the regular kitchen stuff on it. It comes with a spoon but I use my fingers as I was getting way too much salt for what I needed. It is super convenient to have this right next to the stove instead of grabbing the salt from the pantry several times a meal.
CONS: I wish there was two spaces so I could have pepper there too.
I would recommend this product.
Customer Review: Good looking, useful little countertop kosher salt dispenser
Summary: 3 Stars
Does what it's supposed to, and looks good doing it - I particularly like the silicone seal around the top to keep humidity out of the salt.
Why 3 stars? One star off each for:
- Didn't come with the spoon like the picture said it was supposed to
- The glass isn't clipped to the metal. I had a couple close calls when holding it with my fingers from underneath and the glass popped up out of the metal surrounding it until I trained myself not to do that.
