So glad my butter set sail in the boat!
June 7, 2017
I have both the butter bell and the butter boat. I like boat better than the bell, because I don't have to mash a stick of butter into the bell, plus the butter stick sits so nicely in the boat. I also like not having to be submerge the butter in water like you do with the butter bell. Both are great, but I really like this butter boat! Great fresh tasting butter!
Better than the Bells
May 15, 2017
I like this better than the bells holds a whole sick plus more and like that lid fits so good too!
Couldn't be happier and so glad I found this butter dish/keeper
March 6, 2017
Couldn't be happier and so glad I found this butter dish/keeper!!! Love that it holds a cube of butter without having to mush it in plus keeps it fresh at perfect temperature!!! Thank you for a great product
Fresh soft butter on the spot
December 3, 2014
Very nice butter boat. All three pieces are nicely glazed and have a nice weight. I love the blue water mark line in the bottom so that I don't overfill. I keep it on the table and refresh the water and add a few ice cubes every other day or so. Love having soft butter on hand! I live in Austin, Texas, where it gets hot, and I haven't had to throw out any sticks of butter yet!
What a Great Idea!
February 8, 2014
I've been buying soft tub butter for a while but not happy about the cost and the additional "stuff" that is added. I like just plain butter without any gimmicks! Anyway, after going to Europe last year, I discovered butter bells and thought they were neat but didn't like the fact that the butter actually has to be packed in and placed upside down in water (contamination comes to mind). So, when I came home it was on my mind. Well, as usual, I found exactly what I wanted on Amazon and this is it! Lovely ceramic, not too big, goes well on any table. Love that the butter doesn't have to be packed, that the actual butter-part container can be removed from the bottom part that holds water and used on the table. Plus, surprisingly, the water doesn't evaporate quickly as expected. PERFECT! Just have to remember to use SALTED BUTTER! And once in a while I add ice to the water when I want it nice and cold but not hard to spread.

Good Butter Boat, Could Use Small Tweaks
November 29, 2015
Overall, I am fairly happy with this butter boat.

It really ought to be abut 1/4" taller in the butter section so that a full stick of butter doesn't hit the lid.

It works best if you keep the boat full (not just one stick, but about two sticks spread into it evenly). This is typical of butter boats in my experience though, so not anything specific to this one.

It's easy to clean.

It could be improved by making the lid easier to set down and pick up when upside down, as you almost always will do when getting butter. You have to sort of awkwardly flip it upside down and set it on the top handle if you want to get butter out without holding the top the whole time.
I like the butter boat overall
November 11, 2014
I like the butter boat overall. The only thing that should really be changed is the handle on top of the lid. If you have large hands as I do, it is difficult to grasp the little top. I've had it slip out of my hand on occasion and fall to the counter. Luckily it hasn't broken (it is hard porcelain). Apart from that, it keeps the butter nice and spreadable--perfect for toast in the morning.
So much better...
April 19, 2014
…than the "hang upside-down" butter keepers. As some have said, the lid does't fit quite right, but it still does the job. It's nice to not have to dig the butter out of the water when the house gets a little too warm. There is also room in the water reservoir to put a few small ice cubes. Whoever made it could use a little help on quality control, but all in all, it's not too bad.
Why did I not buy this sooner?
January 2, 2014
I only found out what a butter boat was in early 2013. I had been meaning to buy one for months. Finally I jumped on Amazon and pulled the trigger. When it arrived, I was glad to see that it was just as pictured - a simple white porcelain butter boat. I prefer the basic design for this type of item.

Feels substantial but not heavy, keeps the butter soft. The lid doesn't fit quite as snug as I would like, but it just sits on the table so I am not worried that it will be an issue. For the price, I am satisfied with this product. If you hate a hard stick of butter from the fridge, try this butter boat! it works!
A Must Have
October 15, 2012
I purchased this item because I owned an item like this one previously by another brand. I was unable to find the brand that I had used before and found this item on Amazon. It looks just like the other one. It works just like the one I was use to. It keeps the butter soft. But you must change the water several times a day in very hot weather, because you don't want the butter to melt. To get the best results, my advice would be, check the temperature of the water in the lower chamber periodically and change when it is no longer cold. The one con I have is that the lid does not fit as tight as I would like.

Makes it easy to drop and it's only a matter of time ...
June 6, 2017
Attractive and fulfills purpose but the knob on top is uncomfortably small when picking it up. Makes it easy to drop and it's only a matter of time before it's chipped our broken.
Bad workmanship or defective?
January 13, 2016
I'm not sure if it's defective or bad workmanship. I have to contact the seller. The part where the butter goes in I thought and it seems should be fully glazed. However the rim or crease where the cover lays is not glazed. It's ruff and I am concerned that because it's not glazed properly then bacteria can soak into the ceramic. Glazing prevents that. I see no reason for it not to be glazed fully and no where in the description does it say it wouldn't be glazed fully. I can only conclude its defective of bad workmenship.To be honest, I feel for a $20 butter dish this is inexcusable. I will contact the seller and see what they say. I will keep you posted.
Would have given five stars...
March 22, 2014
...but unfortunately when I received them one was broken. So far the boat works pretty well, will update later, as it took almost ten days to receive them and haven't had much time to know if it works or not.

The reason for the three stars is in the return process. Amazon fulfilled the original order, but I have to go through the company to order another boat this time, as there was no option to replace, just return, which means I will have to pay for a new one (at a higher price), plus $9 in shipping, and another ten days for the new one to arrive. I don't remember asking to receive a broken boat, so why should I have to pay a higher price plus shipping to replace it instead of the company just replacing the broken one; that's just asinine.

UPDATE: Love the boat, but still three stars for the return process on this purchase. I ordered another one through a different company for less, and one-third the shipping cost (not through Amazon), received the boat within three days and it was not broken.
Not sure it works properly
February 15, 2014
This is a great looking butter dish. With that said, I am not sure it works as stated. The bottom of the top disk (outer) is unglazed to allow for the water in the bottom to evaporate. The problem is that the inside of the dish is glazed. The water never evaporated in my dish. The butter stays at room temperature and is great for spreading. I just don't think the dish works as designed. If it did the water would be needing to be replaced. Having a regular covered butter dish would work the same in my opinion. Should have returned it but I like the look of the dish.
Mine was not completely glazed
October 2, 2013
I wanted to contact the seller to ask if mine might have been defective but could not find a way to check with them. The edging on the bottom of the top cover and top of the bowl is not glazed. Think it's going to be a problem when butter gets on it. It's not very expensive so not sure worth messing around sending back. I have a one like this and it is completely glazed. Easier to wipe off.

Find another brand of butter boat
October 3, 2015
The finish on this butter dish is rough. I wish I could find this item easier. I have used a butter boat for years and I love them, but; I bought this one as a gift and the quality is substandard.
Not Good!
September 28, 2015
The butter boat doesn't fit well in the bottom. Lots of gaps. The top fits horrible on the butter boat. Large gap that lets air and bugs in!
Butter Boat from China
December 8, 2014
Cheaply-made Chinese apcray with rough edges. Lid doesn't fit well. Care must be taken when carrying dish or ill-fitting lid will fly off. I had much higher expectations.
Bad-fitting lids
August 10, 2014
I like the style and look of this butter boat, but the lids on the two I ordered do not fit well enough to really keep the butter. Very disappointed in this, as I looked for this style to store an entire butter stick.
Lid problem
January 2, 2014
The lid on this doesn't fit snugly and is always falling to the side or off. I have tile floors and am certain the lid will soon be broken from falling onto the floor. It is large enough to hold a full stick of butter, which is what I like, but the water doesn't seem to really help keep it cool. Perhaps if the outside of the bottom were left unglazed so that it could be wet??? Anyway, I'm still looking for that perfect butter holder that holds a full stick of butter and keeps it soft. This is not that holder.

October 29, 2016
while this is a true butter boat - it is NOT glazed on the rim on the inside of the cover - that is a huge glitch as it will not be able to be cleaned properly. I don't now if they are all like that or just this one - but for the price I cannot imagine why it is not completely glazed - I may send this back.
It is a good size and fits a normal full stick of butter - but it is very heavy.

It's not what I expected Has rough edges under lid and the base Made in China I thought it was a brand from Chefs
Badly made piece of Junk
August 7, 2015
I purchased this to replace a recently broken one. Unlike the other one I'd had, this one is very poorly made--the 3 pieces don't fit well together. This one is being replaced immediately by one from Etsy.com.
Great idea poor product
December 4, 2013
I had a beloved Cook Street butter boat I purchased on QVC years ago. Hubby broke the lid and I've searched for over a year for a quality replacement. This Trudeau shares the same problem as the Silvermark butter boat. The quality is poor and the lid wobbles and doesn't sit properly on the boat. Add to it that it's made in China. Returned to Amazon for a refund.
poorly manufactured
May 20, 2013
I had high expectations for this butter boat. However, the cover does not fit tightly no matter which way you place it.

User Overview
  • Very disappointed

    Not only is this egg slicer difficult to clean, it was very disappointing in its quality. I've had it two months and one of the wires snapped today. The Pampered Chef one I had for 15 years was much better. Very disappointing...
