Why did you pick this product vs others?:Great set with all the basic tools you need to get started on your sourdough bread baking.

Great starter set. I still use this set 6 months later to make my sourdough.

I have made sourdough bread in the past, but I have never used all of these latest "gadgets." I didn't see any Kraft Gift Box in my package, so I can't say what that was for. I have never used the Bannetons before so this was a new experience for me. Because I had read up on how to use these, I understood that they need to be seasoned with a gluten free type of flour before they are used. I had rice flour, so I used that to season mine.I was pleased with the quality of all of the products. In looking at other people's reviews, it appears that some of them did not receive all of the products in their kits. I was very careful when unpacking mine and the only thing that I noticed was that the Kraft Gift Box was not included. I also didn't happen to see a QR code for the instruction manual PDF, but I contacted the company so I am hopeful that they will send me that.The stencils are cute, although I am not certain that I will used them for my bread, but I can use them with other things. I already had a Silicone Baking Mat, and those things are wonderful with the size guidelines on them and they clean up so easily. I really like the silicone hand brush. Just putting a bit of dish soap on it, it becomes a nice cleaning tool. The bread scoring lame and extra blades took a bit of getting used to, but once again, they are easy to use and I am so glad that there is a leather cover for the blades to keep from cutting fingers! The cotton bread bag is nice and so is the Danish Dough Whisk. I had wanted one of those for a while. They are a great tool for baking. The Bannetons make two nicely shaped breads for baking and teh metal scraper is what I use for cutting the dough into pieces. The plastic bowl scraper is nice to use for cleaning up the bowl.Overall, this is a great kit and it is priced fairly as well. I feel that some of the people who posted such negative comments either didn't take the time to try this or did not contact the company with any concerns that they had.I like the kit and I would recommend it for a gift or for yourself if you do sourdough baking for yourself.

My husband bought me this for Christmas and I was so excited. But then noticed the blades for the Lame were missing. I wanted to try so many designs with them. Didn’t give it 5 stars because of missing item.

Sturdy, well made

This sourdough starter kit came with everything I needed to kickstart my sourdough baking journey. Everything was exactly as pictured and of excellent quality. It made the process so easy and enjoyable. Highly recommend for anyone looking to start making sourdough at home!

This was the perfect start up package for making sour dough. Everything you need to get started was included. The price point made it even better. I personally don't like spending a lot when trying something new, but would definitely purchased this again. I would honestly have paid more for it and felt the same. Highly recommend.

Started baking sourdough bread almost for fun. Then it became an obsession. After a while, the tools I had were not enough, so I needed a "proper" kit. This kit has everything I need. Two baskets for proofing, and they work exactly like I saw online: the dough doesn't stick, it's easy to manipulate, and transfers immediately. The whisk is fantastic and makes mixing so much easier. The scraper makes portioning and cleaning up a breeze. The bag for storage is a nice little addition. Didn't use the other tools yet, but so far the tools I have listed have already made baking my bread a much simpler task.
