Review on Foraineam Porcelain Dessert Dishes - Ounces by Christopher Buck

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Worked for what I needed

I took a chance ordering these bowls despite mixed reviews because it was the best deal I could find. I needed small bowls for my cats. For dietary reasons, they mostly eat wet food. I need to be able to cover food and store it in the fridge. And I needed something to keep my cats from pushing the food off the plate onto the floor. All in all they fit my needs perfectly and I'm glad I bought them. However, below are my pros and cons. Pros: - Good price for the quantity - Good size (can be used for dessert, rice, small soup or salad) - Quality seems pretty good so far. They survived the dishwasher with no problems. And they don't look very fragile. Cons: - Packaging isn't the best - Two of the bowls broke in transit - I actually only received 11 guts, not 12. Keep in mind that these bowls aren't quite bright white, more of a cream colour. That wasn't a problem for me because the color didn't matter. But next to my regular bowls from IKEA, I've attached a comparison photo. As for the packaging. It could have been better. First, the only fragile sticker was on the inner box, not the packaging. Also, the only padding consisted of a couple of airbags between the two boxes and thin sheets of foam between each bowl. This is definitely not enough to prevent breakage during the shipping process. I was able to contact support with issues, so overall I'm satisfied.

Pros
  • Hands free
Cons
  • Very expensive
