Quality and Design

Pros:

  • "They are every so much better than they look, nice porcelain and scalloped sides, adorable and can be used so many ways."
  • "The color is exactly like what is pictured and they're very sturdy bowls."
  • "These little blue bowls surpassed my expectations. They are so adorable and the color is just beautiful."
  • "They’re beautiful, but sturdy enough for the kids to use."
  • "Very good quality at an affordable price."
  • "These are very versatile and can be used for a variety of things. The shape is beautiful and they are well made."
  • "These are adorable, great quality. Arrived packaged so carefully!"

Cons:

  • "They are sometimes hard to clean when things get stuck inside the grooves."
  • "They are pretty thin so I worry that they will break easily when dropped or if heated too quickly from being cold."
  • "Took one star off because one of the ramekins had several chips on the bottom."
  • "Pretty little bowls but there are so many imperfections: uneven/bumpy glaze, tiny black spots etc. Awful quality."
  • "The only criticism I have is that a couple of the bowls had slight, pin point sized flaws if the coating on the outsides, but the insides were intact."
  • "It is beautiful but 3of6 have crack and black dot."
  • "The ramekins were very pretty. However, when I inspected them, there were 2 ramekins that had one or two very tiny holes."

Packaging and Delivery

Pros:

  • "Item was beautifully packed and arrived in perfect condition."
  • "They arrived well packed with foam in between each ramekin and then the whole bundle of 6 wrapped in foam."
  • "These came packaged extremely well and none were chipped, cracked or broken upon arrival."
  • "Packaged expertly so all arrived intact."
  • "They arrived swiftly, packaged really well and we were sent an amazing email with a nice bonus, from the seller! Delighted with this purchase."
  • "They come packaged very well, no breakage."
  • "They came very well packaged too."

Cons:

  • "FYI, if this happens to you, know that they won't replace the one or two with other items. It might be a bit of an imposition if you're relying on it for a dinner party."
  • "I feel deceived and duped."
  • "Not worth it."
  • "Every single piece had a significant and conspicuous flaw."
  • "I had the dishes tested by an independent party who found that they were not in fact free from these toxins."
  • "Unfortunately we just had a massive earthquake and they, along with everything else in my cabinets flew out and broke."
  • "The ramekins are very pretty and arrived quickly, but the packaging was covered in some kind of grease or oil and one of them was broken."

Size and Capacity

Pros:

  • "They are the perfect size for melted butter and worked great for easy cook lobster dinner instead of spending days in the kitchen cooking or spending a fortune eating out. Love them. They are nicer than the pics."
  • "These small cups hold about as much as two other sets I have with other shapes, but these take up less space. They are deeper."
  • "These ramekins are perfect for small servings of nuts, fruit, or anything, really."
  • "These cups are the perfect size for a smaller portion of dessert."
  • "Cute ramekins! Perfect size for creme brulee, small snacks and sauces."
  • "These little 4 oz remekins are just perfect for my charcuterie board and for making mousse type desserts."
  • "They are the perfect size."

Cons:

  • "They are pretty... and pretty small."
  • "Their ridges help build a rich lather, but the bowl is kinda small."
  • "Advertised as 6oz is misleading."
  • "Not only is it smaller than I thought, but the design...prevent my guests from scooping out all of the cheesecake mousse, ice cream, or whatever I decide to put in it."
  • "Smaller than expected. It only fits an average sized Golden Delicious Apple, or a couple scoops of ice cream, or a big handful of nuts, 4 oz of water."
  • "They are pretty little dishes but USELESS for my purpose."
  • "The 6 ounce size holds 6 ounces, but that's filling the ramekins to the very (very) top."

Utility and Versatility

Pros:

  • "I've used these for creme brulee, candy, ice cream, dip bowls and individual servings for taco bar salsa."
  • "These little fluted cups can be used for so many things."
  • "I use these for nuts, olives, M&Ms, and sauces."
  • "Perfect size to hold ingredients as you prepare a recipe, or use for a side sauce like sour cream or bread dipping oil."
  • "I use them more for pre-prep when making a meal they are the perfect size for chopped onion, seasonings, eggs, pretty much pre-measuring for whatever I'm cooking at the time."
  • "I love these little bowls. You can use them for hundreds of things."
  • "These are perfect dishes for sauces on my charcuterie boards, they look cute, are easy to clean and fit the perfect amount of sauces/jams."

Cons:

  • "I wouldn't recommend them. I'm really upset that they are cracking."
  • "They looked so pretty, but when eating yogurt or pudding, it is not easy to qualify for the clean plate club because of the bumps in the interior of the bowls."
  • "Totally inappropriate to use anything like this for a gift, and I certainly do not want it for myself."
  • "They are so attractive, well made, and versatile."
  • "Only complaint I have is that it had a minor chip."
  • "Used these for about a month, and has already chipped on the bottom."
  • "I’m disappointed that most of them has some kind of defect."
