Sweese 1102 Porcelain Bowls - 18 Ounce for Cereal, Salad, Dessert - Set of 6, Hot Assorted Colors

The assorted colours are great for kids and for serving. As with other Sweese porcelain, they are high quality bowls and hold up well in the dishwasher. This purchase has completed our collection of larger bowls for serving guests.

I LOVE these! I got the Rainbow 18oz bowls & they really hold a lot more than it looks like they would while not taking up a lot of space. I like the organic shape with the sides a little higher because it makes it easier to grab onto. They have a nice wide FLAT (vs. "pedestal'd") base which prevents tippage, and are overall solid & weighty. I love having a variety of colors - a nice mix of vibrant hues (yellow & deep orange), & subtle (light & dark blues plus white) which keeps dining interesting to me. (I hate using the same color over & over at every meal.) I designate them for specific uses: yellow & orange I use most for fruit & snacks, the navy blue for my teabag strainer (so the stains won't show), light blues for displaying flowers or soap. The packaging deserves a notable mention as well. The box is white & very well-insulated with a spongy foam lining inside as well as foamy sheets between each bowl. The illustrations on the top are really delightful having a retro feel to the people/clothing while exuding festive smiles of celebration on their faces. A warm, genuine message of thanks appears on the lid to the buyer which tells me Sweese really cares about producing a quality product and their customers. I'd like to get the large set of rainbow plates too, but disappointingly, it seems they aren't available at the moment. But once they are, I'll get them. All I can say is, if you're on the fence deciding, just go for it. They're just as pictured & very nice!

Love the colors, so vibrant

I'm careful with my stuff and these are happy colors. if you live with a family of gorillas these will probably break, like any porcelain would. they aren't as strong as restaurant dishes.

I have used the 10 oz white bowls for a long time. These are very pretty, but I wish the company made a 14 oz bowl. I could use a little smaller size.
