Does the box keep homemade bread fresh long?

Nothing keeps homemade bread fresh very long but this breadbox is as good as anything else I've tried. (Plastic bags, brown paper bags, saran wrap, foils, etc.) The box is well made- heavy- and the cutting tray/top seals pretty well and is great for cutting/serving. Only problem I've had is that sometimes we forget there is still a partial loaf left. But that's not often, as usually it's gone before storage is an issue. Hope that helps!

Excellent breadbox. I've had this for years; it keeps bread fresh and looks beautiful. You can take the slicing tray right to the table or use the metal tray without the wood grid for sandwiches or other snacks.

Although they would make beautiful "gift bags" for your homemade bread, they are similar to a fine mesh netting fabric, thus I would think the bread would become stale being exposed to air.

It does not have a seal. It actually has several air holes on back of lid. Our bread is actually staying fresh at least 2x as long however.

Hi - you can freeze it, but I never have and the packages last for months. Once opened, if kept in a plastic bag, they last longer than regular bread also, but you'll want to use it up as if it is regular bread.

I don't know. But it is like powered milk which if u keep in an airtight container it should keep for a long time. I think it is a great product. I have used it several times and there is a difference in my bread. I love it.Maybe try emailing the company. NoInfo on the can says about storage. Would like to know myself.

Yes, nice bread box. I keep it in a cupboard, but it is nice looking if I had counter space to leave it out.

the bread box is not an air tight type box so I would leave the bread in it's wrapper otherwise it will dry out. as far as the box itself it is a nice box and had a decent fit and finish to it but it is not airtight

I freeze them right away when the case is delivered, and pull a loaf out as needed. This will significantly increase the shelf life. Once a loaf is thawed I suggest keeping it in the fridge; it should stay fresh for about a 7-10 days.

I finished this a long time ago, so I don't have the box to tell you. But I never noticed one. As long as it's sealed, it lasts a long time.

I bake bread regularly, so I do go through it, but I have had it sit for a few months with no ill effects. I had a bag that said 2015 as a best used by date. You could always put it in the freezer or an airtight container.

Mine is in a large canister, have had it for a year, and the bread today was just as good as the bread I made last year when the can was new. Use it in everything cakes, cookies, breads, biscuits, pie crust...every thing last longer.

Hi, I have two Brabantia bread boxes. The bread, cookies and bagels all stay fresh longer then their expiration dates. We even store bannas, onions and avocados in one and they last longer too. We have been happy with the bread boxes. They protect our food from out dogs who jump up on counters and steal food off! lol Hope this helps.

Yes, it should last longer in the refrigerator. Ours doesn't last long enough for me to know how long. Very good bread.

Yes, the bread box is air tight. It keeps the bread fresh. I'm very please with it.

I usually put a cookie sheet on the bottom shelf in the oven when I make homemade bread. It seems to make it cook more even

Don't know. We live in Arizona where it is SUPER dry all the time so we have to keep our bread wrapped or it will turn to croutons the next day. But, just a simple bag (paper or plastic) does help keep the bread fresh for a decent amount of time. We're a family of five so we go through bread pretty quick...it never has time to dry out. I love this bread box it's the perfect size and looks very nice.

I can't really say. Bread does not last long around our house; usually a loaf is gone in 3 days or less . It is not sealed. Air will get in behind the swiveling roll top.
