These are much better than the round type. Saves a lot of time for supplement powders
When I was first looking for a salt cellar for easy access to spices, I got the round type first with the lid that rotates away. I didn’t like it for a couple reasons - 1) the way the lid rotates makes it a little awkward to use and doesn’t work as well if it’s next to a lot of other things on a cramped counter, and 2) it has a much smaller capacity.These rectangular boxes work much better for me. On a cramped counter, they don’t have any problems opening, and they have a MUCH larger capacity, especially if you use them without the divider.I originally bought them just for seasonings, but now I use them for supplement powders like creatine, taurine, and potassium chloride. For me they’re even more useful for quick access to the supplement powders, it’s so much faster for me to just flip up the lid and scoop out however much I need of each, instead of opening and closing each separate bag or container every time.Sturdy and well made as well.

Beautiful box
Very nice wooden salt box. I purchased it as a gift for my son-in-law's pastoral ordination. It is sleek, simple, and beautiful, and seems to be well made. I don't think he will be using it for salt, it is going on his desk. :) I love the magnetic lid feature. Thank you for a nice product!

Best Wood Box for salt!
Beautiful wood container! Excellent size with a divider in the middle! Perfect for holding Celtic salt on one side and Himalayan salt on the other!!

Don’t be salty!…
This is a fine salt box that serves it’s function well, and opens / closes easy all while looking great. I keep the best salts in all the Shire in it…

Good but not perfectly flush
It does it's job just fine, but it's designed to look nice without actually having the final finishes you'd expect. The edges aren't flush, the lid doesn't seal completely and the magnets in the lid seem to have no effect. It does it's job just fine, especially for the price point, but it's definitely not as nice as I'd hoped.

Good for salt
It’s square, lid is magnetic, clasps could be of better quality but the woods are not nailed or screwed together like some of the other cheap options on Amazon. It’s joined and glued so that’s a plus on the design from me. Stores a very good amount of salt for regular kitchen use. If you need a bigger size for your salt, it probably shouldn’t be a salt cellar. So size wise this is a sweet spot for me. It does not seal. But the magnet lid will prevent minor accidental tip overs. Not that I foresee a tip over since it’s a large square contact to the counter. It WILL spill all out if dropped on floor. Magnet is not THAT strong. Best option for the “less than $15” price tag.
