Rating: - A nice set of bowls
I initially purchased these bowls as a prep bowl set, and then I was highly impressed at the measuring capabilities. They are well-made and beautiful (I ordered the persimmon color, a nice orange that isn't garish). They really make things easier in the kitchen. A good value.

These bowls are great.Nice and heavy, and their dual purpose measuring cups and prep bowls are genius.The fact that they stack together for easy storage is great.
