The first impression of the bowl set with bamboo stand from Helena HI Iris in terms of packaging and contents is mixed. When opening the box, it is noticeable that the packaging is not sufficiently protected against tipping, which led to damage in our test case. Improved shipping packaging would be desirable here to ensure product safety during transportation. In terms of the sustainability of the packaging, however, there is room for improvement. Unfortunately, non-recyclable materials were used, which is a critical concern in times of environmental protection and sustainability. As for the package contents, all components of the bowl set were complete and in good condition. The set itself is intuitive to use, although more detailed cleaning instructions would have been desirable to optimize the care and hygiene of the ceramic bowls and bamboo stand. Overall, the first impression of the packaging and contents of the bowl set gives a mixed picture. Improvements in terms of product protection during shipping and the sustainability of the packaging should be considered in order to optimize the overall experience for customers.
