Multipurpose bowl, I microwave old fashioned oatmeal every morning on power level 5 for 5 minutes and 20 seconds. It calmly cooks to perfection without even coming close to bubbling over, I feel that a larger amount could be cooked without mishap in this versatile bowl. Its the best for serving a hearty soup or chili too!

Pros: Really good quality, smooth shiny finish, washes easily; is a sturdy, substantial  bowl set for my kitchen!
Cons: none noted
