I've been using these a couple years now and they are by far my favorite kitchen utensils. I was worried they wouldn't hold up over time, especially since I put them in the dishwasher, but they are very rugged, while being non-scratch unlike metal, and also not wasteful plastic!
I use this bowl almost every day and friends who see it comment on it's beauty..... just n fact I just purchased another......not sure whether I will give it as a gift or keep it for myself!!!!
