These are just not high quality bowls; they are not very heavy (maybe compared with a dollar store) but you could easily bend them by hand. But specifically the problem with these bowls are 1) mine were already starting to rust in spots on the inside upon shipment from Amazon 2) there was damage to the top rim which looks like it originated from the factory 3) the plastic lids were terrible smelling, terrible fit and very thin and floppy. There is also only 1 hook in on the side of the bowls.

I had purchased this to replace a set of similar size bowls from Ikea that were plastic and only 2.99; well these were not an upgrade by any means. They also did not have anything on the bottom to prevent slipping.

I was looking for stainless steel mixing bowls which could be heated while whisking. I also really liked the idea of using lids instead of wasting plastic wrap. The bowls work well enough for mixing, and have volume markings indented into the sides of the bowl in cups and milliliters. The lids however work horribly for keeping the food sealed. The curvature of the bowl seems to cause them to push out. For that reason, the bowls aren't what I was hoping for.

Since childhood, way too many years ago, Mom had a set of stainless steel mixing bowls, which we used every day. I finally decided to get a set and this was the best I could find. We now use them everyday, for baking, mixing, or just as a bowl for snacks.

I bought these bowls as a Christmas gift for my daughter and she loves them! The are a nice, heavy stainless steel, with measurement markings on the side. The lids are snug fitting and I'm sure this set will serve her well for many years to come.
They are nicer than any of my current bowls so I'm consider orering myself a set as well. For the reasonable price, you won't be disappointed.

Bowls are exactly what I was looking for. Although the lid does fit the bowl, it is not very tight, but it does what I want it to do and that is cover the contents for refrigeration. I am happy with the purchase!

i haven't even used the bowls yet, but the smell that came off those lids when I opened the package is absolutely horrible. They are currently in the dishwasher and I will update after use. I'm already regretting this purchase though.

I ordered these from elsewhere, even after having read the reviews here. It was a great deal. The lids fit really tightly, so you have to work to get them on. I consider this a good thing. The bowls do not have an coating or anything on the bottom to keep them from slipping, but then it doesn't say they do. I put them on a silicone oven mitt and have used them with my hand mixer with no problems. I love having the measurements inside the bowl. I love that they're stainless steel. No more melamine for me, which is great because sometimes I feel like the melamine isn't really clean (especially after mixing something like meatballs in there, and they're only top-shelf dishwasher safe...and don't fit on the top shelf). I'm very pleased with these bowls.

The tops on these bowls simply do not fit. Do not buy these bowls unless you plan on throwing the lids out.
