I seriously loved this bowl!! I love that the bottom doesn't have the plastic ring that was on my first one, it still locks in my Kitchenaid mixer perfectly! It is the perfect size, I seriously loved it.... until the pouring spout cracked. I have no idea what happened, I was making a cake and noticed the crack. Very disappointed in the quality if it cracks randomly with no reason, I have followed all care instructions and have used it no more than 10 times.
