I only saw up untill now the big white round Byrodo flasks : triple crisco size : double HAK's vegetable conserves size.
Didn't know other flask sizes volumes were present at IC's
Double HAK .... made me laugh.
Yeah I think it avoids the vagueness of marketing speak messages.
It's also a style issue and attempt not to alienate certain customer types I'd say.
The 'bolt to wall' thing can present itself as very utilitarian if done poorly. If done well then it looks right, gets used right and will simply avoid the marketing messages which depending on personality type will work or annoy.
The difficulty is to overcome the mental (guilty as charged in the past) that these things are walkables.
I think you have three categories ..... those who fleece everything and consider it part of the price (me in the past), those who occasionally take something nice that has a niche appeal (me now) and those who don't give a damn and prefer their own stuff at home. For 20+ years, our kids did not know you could buy soap, shower gel, shampoo etc.
I'm a (slightly) better person now.
