> 24 hourI wanted large bowls (for enjoying big salads) that went with my collection of dishes from Japan. These looked like they could meet the need, and they were the largest ones I could find, holding 40 ounces according to the description. They survived shipment nicely, but when unpackaged, four of six had defects, either excessive glaze pooling or issues with the pattern (see photos; I couldn’t photograph the glaze pooling, so these are of the pattern defects). Only two of the six should have made it past quality control. I was really disappointed. But then I decided to reach out to the company, as the little note in the box said to if there were any issues. They offered a refund (though the amount they offered didn’t match what I had paid, was less by over $5), or a replacement set, without having to return the first set. I was a bit worried when I went for the replacement set; if it had 4 defective bowls as well, I didn’t know what I’d do then. But this time it came with only one bowl that had issues, and that was some smearing of the pattern on the outside in a small place. Not ideal, but not at all like the first batch. The remainder would pass strict QC, no problem, and were absolutely lovely. The bowls are large enough for a good, filling salad for my lunch, and they are pretty enough (the perfect ones, anyway) to go with my other Asian dishware. The colors are saturated nicely in the darker bowls, especially in the newer set, and the glaze is nice and even in this replacement set, no bubbling or pooling. I love that they go in the dishwasher; I have some others I don’t risk in there, but these have the shiny glaze that makes them safe for this. So, bottom line, if you need bowls like this, take the chance that you’ll get a really good set like I did the second time. If you don’t get a good set, or anything is broken or otherwise damaged, just let them know, and they are good about helping. The first set was three stars, the second five, which is why I averaged for a four star rating. Five stars for the customer service, though. I am going to enjoy using these every day.

> 24 hourThis are large, heavy porcelain bowls that are fantastic for pasta, soup or ice cream sundaes. They clean well in the dishwasher. The white bowl is a standard sized bowl for comparison. I love these bowls!

> 24 hourMy teenage sons and I love the addition of these beautiful bowls. We donated the ones that can’t go in the microwave because these can. I love them. Looking for colorful and practical? Don’t hesitate.

> 24 hourThese bowls are colorful, fun, well-portioned. They arrived on a timely basis, packed well - no breakage. Though I ordered them for a theme dinner party, Ive used them each day since and received many compliments. I dont NEED new dishes, but I have to say, Ive enjoyed having this colorful, fanciful addition to my collection.
