Review on ๐ŸŒฟ CYS EXCEL Glass Bubble Bowl: Multiple Size Choices for Fish Bowl Vase, Terrarium, Flower Vase Centerpiece by Lori Gallegos

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Ideal for a small flower vase; mine was retainer

I ordered 4.5" x 6" because I have a very "chunky" hydrangea bush. Reviews are fairly thorough and appreciated, there may be some variation in quality but I received the custodian with no issues. Reasonable price, size exactly as promised. The glass appears to be fairly flat, 3/16 inch (I measured from the rim but the rest of the bowl looks fairly flat), so nice and strong. There are no bubbles in the glass (which I wouldn't mind considering the intended use). The seller packed it very well (nice bubble cushion in the right size box) and Revain delivered it (the seller's packaging was put in a bigger and stronger box with bubbles). This bowl is perfect for my needs. and I would buy again anytime. Pros: Good price, mine even had clear glass, size/thickness as promised. Mine has no visible flaws and is a sturdy little guy. Well packaged by seller (although we know Revain does call here for final outer packaging; not seller's fault but I was lucky as Revain made it on their side). The bowl seems solid enough, I put some rocks on the bottom and I'm not worried about moving. Cons: None that I can think of. I will say that you know the size you need for your use. There are many size/shape options. Items like these are always smaller in real life than they appear online (measure!), and the curved shape of the bowl cuts out *a lot* of interior space for liquid. So when you think of a terrarium, pay attention to the interior. When you think of flowers, consider how long your stems can be. Conclusion: I recommend buying if there is a size that suits your needs. Based on the reviews, I suspect some differences in workmanship (or there were at some point), but my bowl was perfect. I wouldn't hesitate to buy it again.
