As a shopping editor, I’m constantly on the hunt for hot new products, and one of my favorite places to discover things is TikTok. While many may associate the app with teenagers dancing and funny viral videos, the platform is also home to many accounts devoted to sharing everything from cleaning hacks and DIYs to, of course, product reviews. Over the last two years, I can confidently say that a fair amount of my home purchases have occurred as a result of a TikTok I’ve seen — and I’m not the only one. With many of my friends also being devoted users of the app, they’ve found themselves becoming TikTok shoppers, too. And as they are well aware of what my job entails, when they come across an interesting find, they always send it my way. This scenario happened again just last week when my best friend sent me a video showcasing what I can only describe as the most stylish rice dispenser I’ve ever seen — and I knew I had to share it with you, dear reader.

In the video shared by user @briannaancheta (which currently has over one million likes), we’re shown a stunning glass rice dispenser, complete with a glass measuring cup, bamboo accents, and a matching stand. After taking a closer look, I found that the stand is available in 5L and 8L sizes (in the video she’s using the 8L version), making it great for small and large kitchens alike. In addition, the dispenser is controlled by a chic bamboo-accented lever, and the lid of the container features a food-grade PP material sealing ring for a tight seal that can keep everything from rice to flour to cereal fresher, longer.

All in all, I was extremely impressed by this dispenser. The only thing that stopped me from buying it right there and then was… the price. At just under $130 for the 5L size, this is definitely an investment piece and one I personally wasn’t quite ready to splurge on. However, it left me wondering what kind of other rice dispensers are out there. After a little digging, I’m happy to report I found some affordable options that I think are just as stylish. So if this one is a bit out of your price range, I rounded up five additional rice dispensers that’ll help keep your grains fresh and organized without breaking the bank.
