Happy SalesHSWF201B, Japanese Soup Rice Bowl with Lid Black

This bowl isn't a huge bowl, but it isn't tiny by any means..It might be considered tiny to some if your expecting a huge bowl for this price. Though if your expecting to get a bowl that serves for at work for a sizable meal for rice or noodles, your set. It looks exactly how it does in the picture, this product is of Japanese craftsmanship and isn't a fraud like most from china. I've got a lot of compliments on this bowl from coworkers and recommend it to anyone. Hope this review helps.

This bowl is good product & Perfect size for me!!!

These plastic bowls are nice looking textured plastic with lids, perfect for a single serving of miso soup or a large scoop of rice to serve with Asian dishes. They are not fancy lacquer but look fine. They are the same size as the bowls most Japanese restaurants serve miso soup in. They have survived the top rack of the dishwasher with no apparent effect (other than getting clean!). Haven't used them in the microwave so no idea how they will fare there. It would be nice if the seller posted microwave and dishwasher care. If there was a note in the box, my son threw it out when he unwrapped these...they were a gift to him since he loves to prepare and eat Asian dishes and likes to give them a nice presentation. I got some spoons to go with them here: Asian Red/Black Soup Spoons, Set of 2

These bowls were an exact match to the picture. The vibrant red with a little bit of texture to make it more interesting. The lids fit really well into the bowl. They are small, but miso bowls are meant to be a small bowl of soup that accompanies other things, so for what they are for they are the right size. I love them.

It is a little small. But its the perfect size for rice or a small amount of soup. Granted for the price im not complaining, plus im trying to loss weight so its helping with smaller portions. It is also plastic, microwaves great. Food gets hot but not the bowl, i didnt burn my fingers getting it out of the microwave

Good quality and nice looking, these bowls are just big enough for a scoop of rice. Not suitable for a good serving of miso soup.

I am into the old traditonal japanese culture.After browsing amazon for a regular size bowl, This is the only bowl I found with a lid. I received thid item in the mail yesterday(June 4, 2013). This item is small as a handful size.Literally you can sit this bowl in the palm of your hand.It is plastic and microwaveable. Nicely packaged with the Amazon pPrime black tape around the box. I also purchased Japanese chopsticks from a seller here on Amazon.both of the items I purchased came together in the same box as if it was a complete set. Amazingly these 2 items look perfectly flawless together. I would purchased from this seller again. I hope this review helps potenial customers.

Read the description: 4 1/2 inches wide!! This thing is TINY!!!, barely the size of your fist. It's possibly a tea cup, MAYBE a scoop of rice, more like a few sips of soup, absolutely NOT worth $8.00 apiece. MAYBE $8 for a 4 pack!!! This is OBSCENELY overpriced, listed as this expensive just to make it SEEM like it's not a complete waste of money!! I returned them IMMEDIATELY!! Keep looking for something worth buying.

Cheap plastic

It's much too small but if you would like more than a 250mL serving of noodles I suggest this only be used for rice.Not a fan of plastic but it's nicely designed. Definitely won't suggest it for this price...

This bowl is the size of a large cup and has a lid. It is as, other reviews mention, made from a rigid plasic, but still manages to look good.I have had two of these for 3 years. They are microwave and dishwasher proof (at least resilient), besides soup I use them to microwave frozen peas and spinach.One small issue to be aware of, I tried microwaving a small amount of dry rice in one the other day and with in 2 min the rice had burnt a hole right through the bowl. This is in no way a defect in the bowl, I do not recommend microwaving dry rice in any plastic container.

Nice looking bowl that looks like a terracotta bowl but made of plastic. I used it first for Miso soup the lid kept it walm and the bowl looks very presentable and the best thing is it is more shatter proof than terracotta time will tell if it stands up to use I will up date in a while

Despite the fact I almost always read the reviews somehow I missed them for this product. These bowls are made of plastic and I was rather disappointed with this fact when I opened the box however when I've eaten in Japanese restaurants (apart from very expensive ones) the bowls have also generally been plastic and similar to these. The plastic is quite tactile and they are convenient as they stack very well meaning they don't greatly add to cupboard clutter. For the price I think they are decent quality but the description could indeed be more forthcoming about the materials used so as to avoid disappointment.
