Martha Stewart Collection 6-Piece Multi-Color Melamine Bowl Set Review

When I ordered these bowls they were 19.99 I see they have gone up as of 10/7/08 , even so they are a good investment. The bowls are a good weight ( not your Nana's mixing bowl set ) , the colors are really pretty . They say they are dishwasher safe but I wouldn't , I don't want to damage them. They are also not microwave safe.

I would also not use them for storage they have Melmac in them which is the same toxin causing the babies in China to be come ill , I would over time wonder about long term food storage and leeching of the toxin. That said for mixing they should be fine , its not like your eating the toxin , all plastics etc have toxins in them you just don't eat them.

The only thing I dislike is how much each bowl can hold is not marked on the bowl , it is however on the box. My husband cut it out and we scanned it into the computer for safe keeping.

All in all I think this was a worthy purchase.

Mario Batali 5-Piece Measuring Prep Bowl Set, Espresso Review

These bowls are terrific. They have not replaced our measuring cups, but are a great supplement. The fact that each bowl is not one but two measures (for instance, the 2 cup bowl has a halfway mark on the inside that marks 1 cup) make it very easy to measure out things like chocolate chips, cut herbs, even sour cream. The halfway mark also makes it easy to do things like oatmeal or rice, when you need one cup of something mixed with two cups of something else. This set is great for both cooking and measuring portions if you are watching what you eat. In addition to measuring, they make great prep bowls, even if you aren't trying to measure anything. I love the fact that they are dishwasher safe.

The only real problem is a lack of a 1/3-2/3 bowl. This seems like an obvious thing to include, and sometimes we really wish we had one. Not having this bowl is what has earned this product four instead of five stars.
