Libbey Crisa Moderno Cereal Bowl, 6-Inch, Box of 12, Clear

Fantastic dishware. I bought these bowls, dinner plates, and saucers last month and am very happy I did. Granted the dishware I've used for the past 10 years had pink flowers all over them (so any change is a welcome change) but this set is just what I was looking for. The stickers that are on each bowl are fairly annoying (especially with three sets of dishes), but a bit of "Goo Gone" got excess gunk off easy enough. I even managed to drop one or two into the sink while rinsing them and they didn't even crack. I know some people say the bowls are small, but I'm not sure why. I personally think the size is perfect and am very glad they're not any bigger. It's a great amount for cereal and salads, and I've even used them to hold extra ingredients while cooking (they fit right in with my Pyrex mixing bowls). In fact, I wish I had them 3 weeks ago at a dinner party. I didn't have enough dishes to hold the different snacks, chips, and dips and these would've been perfect. Only thing negative I can say is that it's easy to see fingerprints on them. But that's more of a personal thing (my fingers are notorious for leaving prints on everything), and it's not like other dishware is finger print proof, you just won't see it as easily as you would with the clear dishware. As far as shipping, I too have had problems with Target shipping me Libbey items intact, but fortunately Amazon was the shipper and each of the 36 piece arrived flawless.

I love these bowls.

First of all I was completely annoyed when I received these bowls and there was no indication if they were safe to put in the microwave or not (maybe there was a small paper in the box but I didn't see it). After being an idiot and not checking the reviews to see if anyone else had tested them in the microwave, I decided to take a shot and microwave some soup in one of the bowls and found that they hold up wonderfully, they also do not heat up intensely like most glass tableware while the soup was piping hot. Like other reviewers have stated, these do look a lot bigger in the picture than they actually are but for me that was a bonus since I was originally ambivalent about ordering such weirdly deep bowls. Measure 6 inches with your fingers and they actually are that size. They are shallower than what you expect from the picture but still hold a lot and look great on a table setting; I've heated up an entire can of soup in one of these bowls. They also are super sturdy and the glass is thick but not too thick so I'm pretty sure if you dropped one that it would have a decent chance of surviving the fall. The price is great and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend these to anyone.

These bowls are the perfect bowl size for cereal, ice cream etc, and we are not skimpy eaters. The only issue is that 3 of mine came chipped on the rim and were very sharp. So far we used a few bowls, put them in the dishwasher and they seem fine so far. We don't have a microwave so these were a good choice for us. The price was so reasonable I didn't mind throwing 3 out. We didn't really need all 12. I also purchased the rest of the Libbey Crisa Moderno dishes as glass dishes are lead/cadmium free. All of the other dishes seem to be in good shape when they arrived. They have a faint blueish/grey tint.

Just a little over two years of normal use, most of these bowls have chipped badly along the rim and I’ve had to throw them away. These didn’t hold up.
