5.0 out of 5 stars bamboo recipe box
This recipe box appears to bamboo has two small hinges on the back.. the box opens fully so you can easily insert or remove cards. I have provided TWO PICS - we shall see if the Bolo photo trolls allow them...4x6 cards fit in with about 1/4" on the side that is free once inserted. It comes with a minimal divider set and a plastic insert to hold a recipe card out and visible using the slot on the top. There is a film on the plastic insert piece you will want to remove before using. There is also a tiny magnet on the the front and top of the box. It sort of keeps the box closed... but I don't think it's of huge use. The foot print of the box is approx 5x7 or so - just eye balling it. The lid fits perfectly down on the base when closed. I noticed a few reviewers have had issues with corners and such. No such issue on mine - but production lines miss on occasion. I THINK it's real bamboo... feels like it. The bottom notes that it was "Designed in the USA - Made in China." In case that matters to you. I would certainly prefer MADE in the USA. The nice thing about bamboo is that it is totally renewable. I think it's pretty sturdy. It has a weight to it that is not unreasonable, but it's not a lightweight to grab and move it - although it's not super easy to grab either in case that is an issue. I find it easier to open the box and grab it while opened to move it. I don't use recipes a lot so that is ok for me. It will sit in a drawer. I mostly use it for "inspiration" and an occasional reminder of an ingredient. All in all, I think it's a fair price and a good box. Having said all of that, I never hesitate to update a review should new info seem useful.
5.0 out of 5 stars Nice box
The Ocenstar bamboo recipe box is the perfect size, with dividers for plenty of recipes. Top opens & stays shut with a magnet. Plain box nothing written on it so it can fit in with any decor. Great price and quality
5.0 out of 5 stars Cutest Recipe Box!
The box is so cute and comes with index’s to separate between appetizers, lunch, dinner etc. It also has a crease on the top to display the recipe.
4.0 out of 5 stars 4.5 stars after I returned the original and received a better product
purchase price: $17.60retail price: $30.55, 42% offpurchase date: May 2, 2024I was looking for a recipe box since the one I bought at Goodwill was starting to overflow. I wanted a wooden box that was well made; I wasn’t really interested in any of the things that came INSIDE a recipe box (I have since changed my mind). After looking online (mostly on Bolo), I concluded on this one. I have purchased a few others since and I now have something to compare it to.Before you buy a recipe box, you need to determine what is/are important to you:- a heavy box that will last for decades through moves vs something to start a young person with that they might replace in the future- plain or decorated: if you get a plain one, you can get the box to be carved or burned with whatever design you want (which will cost more than the box itself, I guarantee it)- magnetic closure vs hinges (I haven’t seen anything that offers both)- recipe cards that match the box/ theme; how the recipe cards are templated, etc.- stands: do you want your recipe card to be able to stand up on top of the closed box? Do you want to be able to do that WITH your phone together? Does that matter? Does it matter if the card needs support to stand up (like this one)?Pros to buying this one:- heavy, well made box, slightly glossy finish. The magnetic closure works like a charm and the hinges look well made and will last awhile- tall (in case you want to to anything on top of your cards and long (easily fit my 200+ recipes)- plastic shield: at first I thought this was a fluffy detail but I came to appreciate it: it will protect my 4x6” card and help it stand on top of the closed box (note: that’s not necessary but some people will demand this feature)- right now, it’s cheap: the retail price on this is pretty high. I don’t think I would have paid $30 for this box, as much as I like itWhat you should know:- I returned the first one I purchased because the top portion of the box did not flush with the bottom portion; Bolo shipped one to me in two days and return was a cinch (UPS is two blocks away from my house)- no recipe cards that came with this box: that isn’t the worst thing unless you hate plain 4x6” cards (I don’t; I somewhat prefer them)- Dividers: I didn’t like these at all!!!! The categories included: appetizers, soup & salad, pasta, rice & noodles, entrees, vegetables, dessert, and a blank one for you to write in (7 in all). They are SHORT. Sure, you can see them over your 4x6” recipe cards, but if you’re like me and you print out on regular letter-size papers and fold those into quarters, they WILL block these dividers! that will NOT work for me for sure. I ended up buying (!!!) separate dividers for these. For that price, I think it would have been better for me to buy another recipe box that came with better dividers, but you won’t know what they look like until you get the product in person...
5.0 out of 5 stars Very Nice Quality
I am not going to use this box for recipes, instead I'm using it to keep 4x6 prayer cards in. It's the perfect size for what I need with plenty of room to add more cards. I use the acrylic frame on top to display a new prayer card each day. I've been looking for something like this for a while and this fits the bill!
5.0 out of 5 stars Sturdy and attractive
I've recently started to put all my recipes on new 4x6" cards and needed a good box for them So much better than rifling through the stack to find a recipe! I really like this box. It's well-made and heavy, it opens and closes easily with a magnetic button to keep it from flopping open if tipped over. The bamboo wood grain is attractive and there's that great groove on the top to put the recipe card holder. The holder is also sturdy and holds the card firmly. It comes with some dividers, but I wanted more than those, so I ordered a large set separately.
5.0 out of 5 stars Very well made
This box is well made and so beautifully crafted!
1.0 out of 5 stars Quality not good
I just unboxed the recipe box to fill it with my recipe cards to give as a Christmas gift and the lid to the box already broke off. I don’t have time to return it since Christmas is in 3 days so I’ll either need to fix it myself before I gift it or return it after it’s been opened as their gift. Sad either way. Box it came in and Bolo box are both in good condition so it was not damaged during delivery. Looks like it was nailed together incorrectly.
Me encantó!
Tal como se describe. La pediría de nuevo sin duda
Love it
Perfect item, it really has encouraged my children to cook and be more adventurous and willing to try different meals :) and I also have encouraged them to write them down making changes they would like to add or change winner in my household
Top Qualität
Top Qualität und super tolles Design.
Awesome recipe card box!
It's bigger than I imagined, but it's awesome. Tons of space, looks great, very sturdy, the dividers look great, and the slip for holding the top card on is great!
Eine sehr schöne Rezepte-Box
Alles top!
