Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of OXO Good Grips 3-Piece Stainless-Steel Mixing Bowl SetCustomer Review: So nice you'll use them for more than mixing bowls Summary: 5 Stars
These bowls are great not just for mixing, but as serving bowls too. On a game night I tossed some snacks in the bowls and the rubberized bottoms kept them from sliding all around as well as keeping them from intentionally being slid across the table. The larger bowls would probably work great to keep a salad chilled a bit longer and the bowls are simplistically attractive to use at the dinner table - haven't used them this way yet, but since getting them I've thought of several ways other than baking that these can be effectively used. Prior to these I had heavy Pyrex mixing bowls and after one shattered into what seemed to be about a million pieces I decided that I wanted stainless steel and am pleased with my purchase. They are much lighter in weight than I had anticipated, yet they are clearly well built and solid. I think this would be a wonderful wedding shower gift or for someone who bakes a great deal - even if he/she already had a set of mixing bowls I think these would be a welcomed addition.
Customer Review: Perfect Bowls Summary: 5 Stars
These bowls replaced a mismatched Pyrex set that was way too heavy and a thinner stainless set that didn't have a 5-quart size. I can now get rid of both of those sets, because this is all I need! These are sturdy, thick, heavyweight bowls that have rubber nonskid bottoms and white metal sides. Stainless is perfect because it's easy to clean, lighter weight than glass, and doesn't retain odors or scratch like plastic. There are three practical sizes in the set, 1.5, 3, and 5 quarts. They have nice wide rims to make sure that everything stays in the bowl while you are mixing. I got these as opposed to the other Oxo stainless set because I didn't want the grippy stuff all over the outsides. It's fine for the bottom, but stuff sticks to it, like crumbs and towel lint. The insides have more of a brushed stainless finish than a polished finish, which makes them easy to keep free of water spots and fingerprints. This is the only set you'll need.
Customer Review: replaced my shattered pyrex Summary: 5 Stars
After having a pyrex baking dish shatter all over my kitchen while taking it out of the cupboard, I decided it was time to replace my pyrex with something more ... sturdy :)
enter these metal mixing bowls (plastic outside, nice stainless steel inside, no-skid bottom). Perfect! These are so much better than pyrex or plastic. They will keep hot things hotter for longers, and cold things colder for longer. You can use them in the fridge, and they have been good in the dishwasher. No microwave, of course, but I kept a couple of microwave-safe pyrex and plastic bowls for that job.
I use these a lot - as a big family-style salad bowl, for letting bread rise (pour some hot water in first to warm up the stainless steel and the bread will rise faster), storing food in the fridge - everything. They are surprisingly light, too, which is another advantage over pyrex.
Customer Review: A must have for your kitchen Summary: 5 Stars
After using these bowls in my daughter-in-law's kitchen I knew I needed them. They are easy to handle, good sized for all your mixing or serving needs and feel substantial in your hand. From mixing up small bread batters to tossing a large salad these bowls are perfect. The bowls nest well for storage and wash up well either in a dishwasher or by hand. These would make an excellent gift for someone just starting to stock a kitchen or for someone who would just enjoy a terrific set of mixing bowls. These are a great value for the price.
Customer Review: Great Bowls!!! Summary: 5 Stars
I read some reviews about how bad the rubber smelled on the bottom of these...honestly, unless they recently changed the material, there was no smell whatsoever. After getting them out of the box I washed them and put them in the cupboard...NO smell or hint of rubber. These are great bowls. I used them to mix muffins and they stay put and are deep enough to not splatter any contents. I also used these to beat eggs for a frittata and they worked wonderfully. Highly recommend!!
