I had been looking for a breadbox that would hold more than a loaf of bread and a pack of buns for quite awhile and finally found this dandy little number. Not only will it hold about 3 loaves of bread and some buns as well, it's designed so that it doesn't take up any more counter space than my old rolltop box. It's also nice to be able see inside so I can quickly take stock of my bread situation before going to the store - though I'll admit at first I was constantly doing a double-take every time I walked by thinking someone left the breadbox open!  Very happy with this purchase. It really is the little things :)
