The Brabantia Make & Take costs £9.95 and is rated 4.3 stars from 938 ratings, with 1.1 litres of capacity and BPA-free material.\n\nIt takes third because it is the one box here that sells itself by volume in plain words and states its dishwasher, microwave and freezer suitability, while publishing no capacity field to check the volume against.
