*Themaximum score is 100 points
On the Amazon platform, consumers rate the spice jars from VonBueren with an average of 4.6 stars. One common criticism is that the labelling with the included pen wears off easily. Many customers like the appealing design and the attractive labels, which make the spice rack look neat and uniform. In our practical test, we were able to confirm that the design and the stickers were good, but the durability of the labelling with the chalk pen is of course not permanent. There is another labelling option for this.
Prices of up to €80 are charged on the internet for equivalent products. Very affordable products are available from as little as €15.20 . The spice jars from VonBueren are therefore currently in the lower price segment with a price of €17.77. For the quality and performance received, the price-performance ratio is very good.
