The packaging was very good. I read the reviews and was concerned however my concern was unwarranted. Was extremely happy with my La Cloche Dome and use it regularly. Very satisfied customer. Thank you, LDPorter

Mine arrived in perfect condition and I've been baking great bread with it at least twice a week.

The problem wasn't so much in the packing - it was explained to me that the problem is that sometimes the ceramic will develop hairline cracks during firing - which will then split when stressed. In my case, this was the bottom - which they replaced at no cost to me - it has worked just fine ever since. This is an amazing product!

I recently ordered La Cloche Dome having heard of the "packing problem." The packaging for the La Cloche sent to me was perfect. It fit the rather untidy contours of the dome and the bottom separately so they were both protected in different ways. I have saved mine in case we move. And love to bake in it.

Although well packed in myriads of bubble wrap, the base was broken. The unit was sent back.

We've moved forward with the shipping process. Devices are already moving to fulfillment to start the packout process.

My hard drive was not packed well. Air bag underneath and on top but no sides so the packing had slipped to the side of it and the hard drive was touching bare box. I was very concerned when I opened the box but the drive appears to be ok.

well by the time the shipment got to me the icepack had melted. But that never seemed to alter the effectiveness. I suggest you use an icepack for as far, or as long as possible until you reach your destination :)

Try using WD40 and it should make it easier to un fold, its hard because of the shipping and if its cold its harder as well.

Hi Tallyginger. Nope didn't get that far. I bought as a gift for my partner. She opened the box. Loved it a first. Opened the zipper and the zipper failed. Zipper opened in front and behind where it was supposed to be closed. So we didn't look any further. I re boxed and sent it back.

I don't know if there have been changes made to the packaging? I bought our dry erase board and we put it together easily.

not for very long :) maybe the packing material or the fact that they took all the air out of it

Sorry guys, My family has been here & we went thru it...BINGO! It was heavy & cumbersome as a whole bag package so I immediately divided it & put the bag's contents into 2 containers with a tight lids to reduce possible oxidation. The bag with the expiration date is long gone. It's so much more controllable, safer, cleaner & easier to use out of 2 containers with a tight lids.

I have just checked a new unopened canister and it seems to have settled. I turned it over a couple of times to unsettle it and the container appears fuller. I generally do this a couple of times between uses.

Sorry. Pushed send too soon. If you freeze the bag ahead then pack it as you head to he airport, you should be fine. Carey it onboard. In 5-6 hours it should remain cool.

Yes, but know that it works better the higher and less obstructed it is. Overall, I have been pretty satisfied.

None what so ever, I'm happy with the unit. Shipping was a breeze as well. I was concerned about breakage. Packed in foam, so it was perfect.

No. I used some soft plastic packing material for mine. Works perfect so far. Happy to help.

Hang on to the box & packaging for repacking at time of disassembly. Should be no problem to transport.

Did not see any in my order. I keep it in a large ziploc after opening and it's been fine.

I would say that the Frustration-Free Packing is supposed to be easier to open. The bucket with the blocks didn't come in a plastic bag, it was just in the box. Makes for very easy access. Hope this helps :)
