Borosil 1 L Round Serving & Mixing Bowl with Lid | Made in India Borosilicate Glass Bowl for Kitchen & Dinning | Bowl for Mixing Dough, Salad, Batter | Microwave & Dishwasher Safe | Transparent

These mixing and serving bowls are yet another example of the world-class quality that Borosil offers. The new lids are an improvement on the older version of these bowls which featured snap-on blue plastic lids. The new, white lids offer a better fit and also feature an air vent that can be closed or opened. However, the lids are only suitable for storage and MUST NOT BE USED in a microwave oven along with the microwave safe bowl.

Firstly, Amazon delivered it very securely packed so there was little chance of any damage while in transit. The product itself is excellent, and the lid is pretty decent too (though the instructions on the box say not to use the plastic lid in the microwave). The glass itself is good but a bit thin, at least when compared with other brands like Pyrex and Treo. On the plus side it is a bit lighter, but durability wise I don't think it makes much difference despite it being lighter, since being glass it needs to be treated with care anyway. I use these mainly for microwave warming/cooking, and it is really excellent for that purpose, since it is completely safe unlike plastics and does not leach chemicals into the food, nor does it get stained. It is easy to clean and the only drawback that I can think of for microwave cooking is that the glass conducts heat and gets hot pretty quickly and you need to use some kind of cloth or oven mitt to take it out since it does not have handles. As an indication of size, this bowl is perfect for making a portion of instant noodles/pasta or soup for one person in the microwave.

Building quality is good

Decent product Extremely easy to clean Looks good However, durability is pretty low...cracked easily if not handled well (much more easily as compared to other glass bowls we have)

Microwave friendly, 1 letre bowl with thick wall.

These bowls are great. However, the plastic lids have a small hole in them for ventilation. There should be a way to seal this....but mine was broken on arrival. Now I have a bowl that can't be properly sealed. I wish I could have gotten one with a simple lid.

Quality is very good . Size and thickness
