This is a very LARGE grease holder.....
January 12, 2013
I liked the "idea" of this grease holder - however the piece is much larger than I expected. If you have a smaller kitchen and not alot of counter space then you probably want to pass on this one. I put it out on my counter and it just took up way to much space. But..... if you like to hold on to alot of grease and you have lots of counter space then you may like this item. For me it just didn't work due to it's size.
Cons: Fragile, Size

Great capacity
June 2, 2012
I originally bought this out of a mixture of nostalgia and wanting to store grease in something more pleasing than an old coffee can. This hits all the marks. Looks lovely on my counter top, stainer works well for most serious clumps of breading/batter debris and the capacity is very impressive. It's also easy to clean after a soak in hot suds.
My only mild complaint is that it can be a bit hard to get the right angle to pour grease out of it without some slipping down the side, but I think that's true of any wide-neck container, so it's not worth docking a star for it.
I've had this for 4+ years and plan on buying my mom one to replace her old metal can for her birthday.
Pros: Durable, Quality, Size, Design
Cons: a bit difficult to pour

Welcome addition to the kitchen
November 5, 2011
No more scrambling to find a suitable container for hot grease or risking the plumbing. The removable porcelain filter separates out the larger debris from cooking oils and allows for reuse of oil from deep frying.
Would benefit from disposable liners.
Pros: Easy to Use, Quality, Easy to Clean, Design, Weight
Cons: Fragile

Disposable liner
I agree that the container would be more attractive with a disposable liner so unwanted grease could be easily recycled or deposited with municipal grease recycling collection. I did locate a very detailed description of such a strainer/funnel patent that appears to be pending; however there was no such item available for purchase as far as I can determine. For a while we used an old vegetable can as a liner that could then be easily remover and disposed of in the garbage but have discontinued this practice since it defeats recycling the can with metal recycling. Please submit best recommendation for people who rarely reuse kitchen grease!

I had been looking for a Porcelain Grease Holder and I found the perfect one. Good size, don't have to worry about salt eating it up, strainer is perfect.
I also gave my mother one and she loved it.

Very useful

The old fashion look of this piece looks great on my stovetop, and it's non-fussy style is easy to keep clean. Works great! If you cook with grease a great deal, it is a good choice.

Cutest Wedding Gift
June 21, 2011
I give this all the time for a wedding gift, do you know how many times you don't have a place to pour bacon grease? Plus it makes a great place to put gift cards or a check in as an additional gift. And the WS Wrapping Paper & Ribbon make an awesome looking gift.
Pros: Durable, Easy to Use, Scent, Quality, Easy to Clean, Size, Strength, Versatile, Design, Assembly, Weight, cute

Good size for dumping grease
April 8, 2011
This is a really good size. The only complaint I have is that the knob on the lid is too small. Would be better with a larger knob.
Pros: Durable, Quality
Cons: knob too small

Nice But Strainer was broken
March 1, 2011
I really like it, but would not recommend this particular grease keeper. The top does not fit tightly, and the grease strainer was not packed well enough and was smashed to smithereens when I opened the package. I was very disappointed, but I can use it without the strainer.

Counter-worthy Storage
February 23, 2011
I looked for a grease holder in stores for a while and you just can't find them. I'm so glad I found this one and is so cute! I love that it holds 4 cups and it is very easy to clean. I'm giving it only 4 stars because, while its wide mouth makes it easy to pour grease into, it doesn't have a spout so it's a little bit messy when you pour. Used grease will run down the side of it so just make sure you have some paper towels handy.

I agree
I just wanted to comment that you are right, you can't find these things anymore. I have one, not this kind, it's old and I need a new one, and just can't find them. i can't believe you have to go on line and order one.

Best practical purchase
January 27, 2011
I grew up with the metal grease cans in that my Mom used. I love this porcelain one as it is so easy to keep clean! I was araid it'd break from being banged around a bit but it's been great and I've had this for about 3 years now.

Perfect Gift
January 6, 2011
I needed a gift for the bacon lover in my life - my boyfriend. He puts bacon on almost everything and had mentioned that his Grandmother had a grease can that she collected her grease in and used it for cooking at a later time. I came across this in a google search, went to the store and was told that it was only available online. Since it was 4 days before Christmas I was skeptical about it being delivered on time and was it what I wanted? I took a chance, ordered it on line and was very happy that it was delivered on time and was very nice quality. He thought it was a perfect gift :)

This piece is functional yet attractive. My previous grease catcher did it's job but was not "counter-worthy." This receptacle looks nice on the counter while I cook and holds a large amount of grease.

Grease Holder
July 12, 2010
The quality of the pot is good, and the porcelain looks elegant on our counter top. The strainer functions well, and the pot has a wide opening for ease of pouring grease into it. However, without a pour spout on the pot, it makes transferring the grease, (or reusing the oil) messy.

A great throwback to down-home southern cooking. This little grease holder is both charming and convenient, adding a little bit of whimsy to your kitchen.
