Much smaller,

This review is from: Norpro Colored Wood Bowl, 2 Cups, 16 ounces (Kitchen)
Very nice colors. Excellent quality. (thick, not thin)
Only thing is that I thought a 2 cup item would be larger, thinking that their "2 cup" description meant that it would hold 2 cups of nuts, candy, or whatnot. I actually "tested" it with a 2 cup measuring cup. The bowl only held the entire 2 cups of water because the water sort of "rounded up" and thus didn't go over the edge of the bowl. If you plan to use it as a serving dish, as I did, you'll need to plan on about 1 cup to 1 1/2 cups of food product. If you need a 2 cup untensil, buy something else because the food would spill out if anyone dipped a spoon into it for their serving.

Well made but much smaller than envisioned,

This review is from: Norpro Colored Wood Bowl, 2 Cups, 16 ounces (Kitchen)
I like to use colorful bowls to hold my balls of yarn when I'm knitting. It keeps the yarn clean and keeps the ball from rolling around on the floor becoming a toys for the dogs, kids, etc.
I guess I had no concept of how big a 2-cup bowl would be but it is tiny. As the original poster mentioned, I would not be able to use this for 2-cups of soup. The actual dimensions are about 5 inches across by 2.5 inches to the top of the rim (that is measuring from the inside of the wood). I think going by the actual dimensions gives you a much better idea of weather the bowl is going to do what you want it to do and wish the website would post that instead. For use with "dry ingredients", I typically will use 100-gram skeins (I realize this is a weird benchmark for a bowl being sold in the kitchen section) and I can barely get one 100-gram ball in the bowl. By weight, 100 grams is about 4 ounces. In terms of looks and build quality, these are nice little bowls. They seem solidly built and I don't have to worry about them breaking the same way ceramic bowls break. The finish is nice and smooth and they are a good thickness/weight and nicely balanced. They look very nice (and actually match my Options Interchangeable Harmony Wood Circular Knitting Needle Set ... yes I realize this is a very strange review! However, the price -- relative to the size -- is rather expensive. If you are just buying them in ones or twos, probably not that big a deal. However, if you wanted to buy enough for an 8-piece place setting, you'd be spending a small fortune for something with very limited use. If you go up to the largest size, you're talking even more money. So whether you are buying this bowl as a decorative item or as a serving dish, either way, I think you are going to be disappointed.
