Mainstays Glass Mixing Bowl, 2.5 Quart

I recently moved and gave away a ton of stuff I thought I'd never use again. Apparently I got way to caught up in my gift giving and realized I gave away too much stuff! At the last minute I needed a medium sized glass bowl for food storage. Found this on Walmart.com and picked it up a couple of days later. Works great as I prefer glass over plastic. Decent price for a last minute need too.

This glass bowl is thick and much heavier than typical mixing bowl of the same size. Having said that, it's a good thing that I don't need silicone pad underneath when use it for cake batter mixing. I also like to mix salad in it as it's the right size for 2 people as a side dish.

Great size love the way I can see through the bowls and see what's in it. Tired of digging through my refrigerator to see what I have.

These are super nice bowls for the money. I bought this one and the 4 quart as I only have one smaller bowl and was always thinking about buying something bigger. They fit nicely together, but watch out when you pick them up because they are nice and heavy. Really happy with this purchase!

The value here is undeniable. They come shipped in a nice and rigid box with plenty of protection. When you first lift the bowls out of the box you realize you've just purchased a quality set of glass bowels. They are a nice thick glass that will take some punishment without beating or scratching and make all of your recipies look so nice and easy.

I like that this bowl is deep which is exactly what I was looking for a deeper mixing bowl. I mean it is not too deep but not wide and shallow like the ones in the set. So when I am trying to mix with the electric mixer the stuff doesn't fly out of the bowl.

I love these bowls for various reasons. The 2.5 is a great size for using when you are baking cookies, making doughs or even just to use for a salad. Clean up is fast, they are a nice thick glass. I like the fact that you can nest them when you have a set. Saves space in the cabinet. This will get a lot of use.

These bowls are so incredibly useful primarily because there is a size for every conceivable need. The glass is thick and high quality - they will last for generations. They are crystal clear, ensuring that your projects are easy to see, thereby avoiding over-mixing, over-blending, or spilling. I absolutely love these bowls and use them practically every day. Great product!

Love this bowl. This one came with a chip on edge. I have other mainstay bowls. Disappointed with chip on it.

I really wanted to like these mixing bowls, but unfortunately, they aren't very well made, and they break easily. I'd say they aren't good mixing bowls but could be used for fruit didplays or salad. I wouldn't wash thrm in a dish washer since they are so fragile.
