How it compares on the kitchen storage & wrap shelf
We track 42 rated kitchen storage & wrap products, and the middle of that pack scores 4.5 out of 5. This one is on 4.7. That puts it in the top quarter of the shelf. Most things here rate well, so what matters is the gap to the pack rather than the number on its own, and the gap is real.
That score rests on 5,093 ratings. The median for this shelf is 6,759. That's a solid enough base to read the score, though not enough to settle it.
Price-wise it falls in the bottom third of a shelf that stretches £2.99 to £36.99, with £9.50 in the middle. Cheaper than most while rating above the middle of the shelf is the combination we look for, and it is the strongest thing this one has going for it.
Worked out from the 42 kitchen storage & wrap products we track, not from the brand's own claims.
