IKEA 365+ Food storage basket with lid (15 W x 15 D x 11 H cm)

I'm a fan of IKEA 365+ products as I have had many for years and they are still in great condition. This basket is too cute and Skandie for me to pass. I have two of these to store onions, garlic, ginger, turmeric, apples, and another two for small items of chocolate (Ferrero Rocher balls and small chocolate protein bars for example). They look great on the my kitchen table, and the mesh is perfect to keep onions and garlic aired, and to see though the contents. 
In the past I've also used to store used batteries and other small items. 
 
They are stackable, so they occupy little space, whether they have the lid on or off.

Thermos Stainless Steel King Vacuum Insulated Food Jar (470ml)

This is a great soup thermos that I use almost every day. I heat my soup around 6am  and put it in my lunch bag, which has some sort of isolation as well. I have lunch at around noon to 1pm, and the soup is still warm. I find this variety especially good for liquid or creamy soups, but I use a wider one from the same brand for chunky soups as I find this jar a bit inconvenient for that. 
 
The jar cleans easily by hand, but it's also dishwasher safe. It comes with a complementary foldable spoon that one can easily insert on the tap nook.

Kilner Glass Bottle (1 Litre)

This is a great bottle for passata, juices and milk. I use it mostly for juice. It's made of premium thick glass and has the brand logo embossed on the front. I love the large mouth as I allows me to put in and pour out liquids and sauces easily. The wide mouth also makes handwashing super easy. Dishwasher safe for the rest.

IKEA 365+ Square Food Storage Basket (14x14x10 cm)

These square baskets are cut and have a wonderful clean design. They look like part of the Risatorp line due to its mix of white epoxied mesh and bamboo lids. I love the way they look, that they can be stacked, and that the lid seals the container perfectly. aled. Handwash only, of course. You cannot put anything liquid in it and I personally would not store food in them. Wiping them with a damp cloth is enough. Every single IKEA 365+ product storage that I bought about 10 years ago, I still have it in good conditions. So I expect the same from these mini baskets.
