We use this bowl probably the most out of any of the Corelle dishes we own, in part because we have so many dishes that have sauces--pastas, stewed meats over rice/grains, etc. We had initially only purchased a set of 4, but found that since we use this so often, it merited buying more. We've had the first set of 4 for almost two years without any issues, so we're looking forward to having these for a very long time.
