Serving perfect pats with the press of a button--- that's just better butter!

One click Butter Cutter

By disappointed from cypress, tx on 3/3/2008

Bottom Line:

Comments about Lillian Vernon Butter Cutter:

Super idea but I would not recommend this because the butter will not stay in the machine. It falls out before you can click it.

Good idea, but needs more work

Comments about Lillian Vernon Butter Cutter:

I love this! It's simple to use & keeps the butter fresh in the fridg. I've never had a problem with it cutting the butter--the key is that the butter must be cold--you can't let it sit out for long periods of time on the counter or table, the butter will get too soft to cut properly. It's meant to keep in the fridg! I use it every day!

Comments about Lillian Vernon Butter Cutter:

I see that others have a few complaints about the Butter Cutter, but we are very happy with ours. I do admit that it's a bit bulkier than I had anticipated, but it is easy to use, we have no problem inserting new butter sticks or having them lower themselves with each "click". It does put out what I consider to be slightly less than a "pat" of butter, but it has also cut down greatly on our butter usage, a good thing! I do still use a stick when I need larger quantities, but we use this for vegetables either while cooking or just place it on the table (great for corn on the cob!) to use for baked potatoes, toast, pancakes, etc. As for storage, I don't think the butter is any more exposed than it would be in a regular butter dish, and even more so if you have teens in your house that don't even bother to cover the dish anyway.

Not very good.

By locawinters

from Galt, CA on 7/27/2007

Pros:

Dishwasher Safe

Cons:

Difficult To Use, Does not have a bottom, Does not push the butter

Bottom Line:

Comments about Lillian Vernon Butter Cutter:

Does not push the butter down, you have to push manually, has no cover at the bottom so the butter gets refigerator odors.

Don't waste your money

By Butter Not

from Minneapolis, MN on 7/27/2007

Bottom Line:

Comments about Lillian Vernon Butter Cutter:

There is no way to get the butter to the blade to make the slices. Also the bottom is not covered which will not keep the butter fresh in the fridge.
