I am very happy with this purchase. I had a similar set that my daughter talked me out of. I handed them over to her thinking I would just buy myself another set when I ran across them. I never ran across any and very badly missed them. These bowls are so nice. Nothing is worse than trying to pour from a mixing bowl that is too heavy to grip in one hand AND scrape out the contents with the other. Regular mixing bowls don't have the nice pouring spout either so while your hand is cramping up trying to hold it, and your other hand is trying to scrape it, the contents are running all over the bowl sides. What a mess! Get these bowls! You will be happy you did. Easy to grip, easy to pour.
