This review is from: Emile Henry Couleurs 3-Piece Mixing Bowl Set, Red (Kitchen)
I lusted after these bowls for months! Finally, I purchased them and they were well worth the money. The editorial states that the bowls are resistant to scratches etc. but, I highly recommend not using metal utensils on this product line. After using a wire wisk a few times, to whip up eggs, I noticed a small, very fine chip in the bottom of one of the bowls. Now I only use plastic or silicon whisks/utensils when I use them for food preparation. All things considered, the bowls were a great addition to a red kitchen!

Although you will probably say that there's no good reason to spend so much on mixing bowls that will eventually break (as opposed to good ol' plastic bowls), I have to say that these bowls are a welcome, attractive, and flexible addition to any kitchen.
The bowls themselves are very sturdy and well made. The colors manage to remain both deep and true without looking too pre-fabricated. They are microwave-and dishwasher-safe. They are extremely roomy yet compact; you can pile pounds of pasta into the second bowl itself.
Besides the rich color, I enjoy the flexibility of these bowls. The smallest of the set makes a perfect cereal, mixing, or soup bowl. Mmm! I'm hungry! My favorite (almost) one-dish meal to make in it are sesame noodles: mix up some sesame oil, tahini, vinegar, sugar, and soy sauce in the little bowl, cook up some soba noodles and dump 'em in, and there you have it.
One thing: the reviewer below makes a great point. Be careful when using...Read more

Except, perhaps, for the list price, there is nothing to improve upon with these fine mixing bowls. I chanced across a set in a mustard colored hue not presently listed here and got a major discount... so I have nothing but praise for the set. The ceramic is dense and solid, with a bell-like ring and a formidable resistance to chipping and cracking. The glaze is smooth, easy to clean inside and out, and simply beautiful. And the three nesting sizes cover perfectly the full range a moderately sized family will need. Pyrex would work as well, perhaps, but in between uses, these Emile Henry bowls can be proudly kept in plain sight!
