Editorial Review:
Product Description: Let your fruit ripen right on your countertop in this 19 1/2" high banana tree and fruit bowl. The antique plated finish creates a warm feel and highlights the bright colors of your fruit. You'll think of it more as a piece of art!

I had read in other review that this wasn't quite the color shown in the picture and that it was quite a bit darker. That incidentally was precisely what I wanted. Instead, mine is silver. I guess it'll work, but it's not what I wanted and I am a little disappointed.

This fruit bowl/basket is quite beautiful looking, but has one major drawback - the openings near the top of the bowl are too large for most average size fruit! Lemons, limes, plums, peaches are all too small, and they fall right out. Even medium size apples and tangerines are too small. You either need to buy only large fruits, or this needs to be modified in some fashion. The picture is quite deceptive - do not rely on it.

Our fruit basket arrived yesterday (27 June 2008) and when we opened the box we were really excited. First that we took the time to read the reviews and second that we had made such a good choice. The bowl is extremely sturdy, solid and well worth the couple extra dollars. My wife and I have been searching local stores and the internet for several weeks and glad we picked the right one. Don't shop any further, this is the one!!

I received this item promptly after I ordered it...I think about 3-4 days. It was a great size and it is heavy, which is wonderful for bananas. The items feels very sturdy, which I really wanted. What I did not count on was the side holes being so big that it won't fit my heirloom tomatoes (which are larger than the general supermarket tomatoes), the brown onions, apples, peaches, or limes I have...so basically I'll have to find new fruit to get to put into the basket.. Or rather, I'm using mesh bags or being very careful to make sure the fruit won't roll out...which unfortunately, defeats the look of the basket. I have no clue which apples they've got in there, but my farmers' market Fujis roll out. I suppose the baking potatoes might stay in there if they're standing up...actually I think I have to line the inside somehow or the basket won't look as good as it ought to look.

This was EXACTLY what I was looking for! As others have said, it's very stable which was an important consideration for me. Other banana holders I had tried kept tipping over and were flimsy. Besides being functional, it's a great looking piece to have out on your kitchen counter to remind your family to eat healthy fruit instead of unhealthy snacks.
