Stainless Steel Mixing Bowls with Lids and Non Slip Bases (Set of 3, Blue) by Fitzroy and Fox

This is a great set of inexpensive yet good quality mixing bowls. I have a set of Pyrex mixing bowls that are useful for the microwave, but they are rather heavy and inconvenient to get out of the cabinets for just mixing ingredients. I also have a set of cheap plastic mixing bowls that slip and slide all over the counter when I try to mix anything vigorously in them. This Fitzroy and Fox set gives me the best of both worlds: they are lightweight enough to be convenient, but the silicone bottoms also mean they stay put on the counter.The bowls are very attractive as well. The reflective finish is nice. The lids and bottoms are a pretty blue. The bowls don't ugly up my kitchen when I leave them out overnight while soaking beans or letting a non-knead bread dough ferment. The fact that they have lids is a great bonus. I don't understand the complaint made by another reviewer who says that the lids don't close but merely rest on top of the bowls. I think perhaps she has the lids upside down 🙂 as they are designed to fit *inside* the bowls, not rest on top of them. Personally I find that the lids seal nicely. They even provide a bit of air tightness if one presses down on the center of the lid as one closes the bowl. The lids are perfect for storing items in the refrigerator. I can whip cream in the bowl, close it with the lid, and store the cream in the fridge for a bit until I'm ready to use it, with no danger of spills.The set would be perfect if there were also one smaller and one larger bowl, and if the lids were silicone rather than plastic. But I imagine those would increase the price of the set a fair bit, so this set is optimal for price-value ratio.

The media could not be loaded. ** UPDATE: Lids - I discovered a trick with the lids for these great bowls. Just push down on the "bulls-eye" circles in the center of the lid. This lets the air out from inside the bowl and creates a great, air tight fit. Lift side tabs to open and release.My husband and I both enjoy cooking/baking and invest in high quality goods for our kitchen. These are our new favorite and they are a steal of a deal for such a high quality item.Over the years we’ve come to acquire three sets of mixing bowls – (1) a stainless 5 piece set with no lids, (2) a melamine set with three bowls (no lids) and (3) these fabulous bowls.The stainless set had more bowls than we every really needed to use, took up too much space and were heavy. The lip was sharp and not comfortable on the hand when gripped. They did not have a silicone bottom so would slide/move when whisking whipped cream or salad dressing or simply stirring brownie mix.The melamine bowls were nice as they were comfortable to hold and had a narrow silicone ring on the bottom to prevent slipping, but when dropped (by mistake of course) they cracked or in one case, shattered. Hence the reason we needed to find a new set of all-purpose mixing bowls.I cannot say enough good things about these bowls. First, they are beautiful. The exterior matte finish and interior shinny finish is very attractive and I like the dark blue contrast color. I love the measuring marks on the inside of the bowls, which are highly functional while not taking away from the beautiful exterior aesthetic. They are lightweight, while not being too light. The lips of the bowls are rounded and comfortable on the hand when gripped. The silicone bottoms are amazing. No slipping on the counter and I was able to whisk my salad dressing with ease one handed while holding my infant. The lids fit snug and they all nest nicely together conserving space. I love, love, LOVE! You will not be disappointed.

First off, love love , love these stainless steel bowls. Best I've ever owned. No more plastic bowl sets for me or glass ( which can break if you are clumsy like me or my family) lol. Anyways, every since I bought my beloved Instant Pot pressure cooker I fell in love with the stainless steel bowl it has so when I ran across these bowls here I thought I'd give it a go. NOW PAY ATTENTION! I had read many,many reviews before I ordered. I always like to hear opinions. Well, lemme tell you, I did take notice of complainers and like always, lol, it's usually because they are doing something wrong or not paying attention to instructions or tips. Soooooo, listen. There's nothing wrong with these lids on the bowls if u use them right. Geesh people. I make sure when putting the lid on I press on that center circle,bulls eye if you wanna call it, and let it seal correctly. It never has popped off yet and I've had several weeks now and use all the time. Plus don't throw the lids in the dishwasher, duh, you should know high heat can runi things and distort them, ok? So don't whine and complain they don't work if you are not paying attention. Ok? ok, lol. Lastly, heeeheee, and here's where I get a big chuckle and laugh, the company Fitzroy and Fox,Inc. that handles these wonderful items,well,they send the best follow up letters to see if you got them and how do you like them, and oh they are wonderfully funny and silly in there greetings and I love their staff,lol,I've been pretty busy so haven't answered any of them until now,lol, so thanks Mike Tecku for getting through to me,lol, first by calling me wonderful, then by offering to name your first child after me,rofl,that's PEGGY LEA, get it right Mike.lol, plus by planting a cherry tree in my honor,lol anyways, thanks, I do love them.
