Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Shonfeld's Classic Pasta Gift SetCustomer Review: Disappointed Summary: 2 Stars
I bought this (Paid retail) mostly because I thought the colander was cool and couldn't find one like it anywhere else. And when I first opened it I thought it was nice but then as I started to unpack it I changed my mind. First of all everything was plastered together by small hunks of white tape that didn't really come off so your left with a sticky blob on each item. The colander has plastic handles (can't imagine those would last long if actually used for pasta). The pasta was a small bag of standard shells. None of the glass bottles (olives, oil and pepper flakes) had any kind of seal on them. Just screw the top off and there ya go. When I opened the olives the inside of the cap had what looked like a little bit of mold (so did the oil). Of course I packed it back up and promptly returned it. I guess if you want it for decoration only go ahead and buy it but dont expect to actually put the set to use.
