Which one should you buy?

For most Australian kitchens the OXO Good Grips Butter Dish is the one to buy: it has by far the most reviews of any pick here, a clear non slip lid and stoppers that hold the block while you cut. If you want the same job done in heavier glass for less, the Kilner Glass Butter Dish is the value pick. On the tightest budget, the Maxwell & Williams White Basics dish with a bamboo lid is the cheapest of our three headline picks and still looks the part.
