These are sturdy, well-crafted bowls. No chips, flaws, or discolorations. Lightweight, dishwasher-safe, nicely sized for a light snack.I can comfortably put 1/2 cup or more of delicious Trader Joe's Sesame Honey Cashews into one of these bowls. (Should I often be filling these bowls with 1/2 cup or more of dTJSHC? No.) Even a generous muffin will sit in the flat middle part, and there will be at least a little space around the scalloped edges if a few crumbs fall around the edges.I've dishwashered (is that a word?) them more than a dozen times and they are still in perfect condition.The bowls are an EXTREMELY pale blue, almost not blue at all. That's not necessarily a bad thing, but it's something to know.Why 5 stars? They're adorable, they're dishwasher-safe, they hold a handful of snacks, they're stylish, they're well-made. They came in a small box with some styrofoam around them, which helped them arrive unscathed. I didn't find the packing excessive (one of my pet peeves). The color matched what I saw here, but I was still surprised at how barely blue they are.BONUS CAT BOWL INFO: While these are the perfect size to hold a can of wet cat food, they're not great for that purpose. The scalloped edges and the ever-so-slightly too high sides make it difficult for me to recommend them for this purpose. ("Whisker fatigue," which is a ridiculous first-world cat problem, would be triggered by these bowls.) My cats ran the bowls around the edge of the kitchen for several minutes trying to lick up the last bits of food. If you need a good small dishwasher-friendly ceramic wet cat food bowl, try "FUYU 6pcs Cute Cat Multipurpose Ceramic Sauce Dish." They're equally adorable and correctly themed for cats.
