We love Tupperware, but we don’t like looking for the lid. This is much higher quality than lock and lock I just wish they would attach lid somehow which could beunsnapped and snapped on a storage ring.But sizes are really great for the highest size bowls, and the next size down. I should mention we have no place for lids my husband mail cook always misplaces the lids and again uses foil on top. He is driving me crazy, but lets face it is a short drive!I can't say enough good things about Tupperware. I first bought the Servalier set back in January 09 and loved it so much I added the Wonderlier as a complementary set a few months later. Now I added the Thasta Bowls both in 32 and 42 cup and I could not be happier; what a wonderful addition to my Tupperware collection! These bowls are BIG and extremely useful for large quantities of food (family gatherings, holidays, etc.) I find myself using these bowls often as I work long hours and cook once for the whole week. They are big enough to store a weeks worth of food and keep it fresh since each bowl has its own lid. Unlike other reviewers, I have not had any problems with the lids on these bowls (or the lids on any other Tupperware piece I own). The lids fit perfectly. As a matter of fact, I accidently dropped one of the bowls on the floor and the contents did not spill (even liquids). The bowls are very functional; I use them for storing, mixing, marinating and even displaying food right on my kitchen table. They are functional AND look good too! If you are looking for large capacity bowls with lids (so hard to find) these are the absolute best. And because it's Tupperware, they will last you a lifetime. My mother-in-law has had her Tupperware for over 35 years! After 3 kids and a lifetime of use and abuse, she STILL uses them (no joke). I mentioned this on my previous reviews of the Servalier and Wonderlier sets, respectively. This is why I started investing in the Tupperware brand myself. The bowls are dishwasher safe but NOT microwave safe.1/8/11I STILL love my Tupperware! Absolutely no issues almost 2 years later, not even food stains. I couldn't have said this about any other plastic storage brand. I'm sooo happy I made the investment. And my mother-in-law STILL uses her (almost) 40 year old Tupperware. I saw her use her favorite yellow Tupperware bowl this past Xmas (2010) to mix cookie dough. I swear, this stuff is amazing! Like roaches, Tupperware will clearly survive the next Apocalypse!Mixing several breads in one bowlI saw the picture of the 32 cup bowl and wanted to get it as I DO use the larger bowls for baking needs. BUT the picture shows the bowl with lid and measuring cups on it. The description ofcourse does not list anything about the measuring cups, but with them in the picture, I thought that they were a "perk" when buying this bowl. I have purchased products in the past where you did receive added bonuses with your purchase. This is NOT the case here. If you buy this bowl, DO NOT LOOK for the items shown in the picture other than the bowl and lid itself. Why the measuring cups are in the picture is beyond me. The product itself is wonderful and I LOVE it. I own both the 42 and 32 cup bowls and use them for baking projects of specialty breads and large receipes. They are durable and not short on stability when mixing. Good thick and sturdy bowls. You will NOT be disappointed when purchasing this item. Will last you for many decades. No kidding! The last bowl of this size that was purchased in my family was back in the 60's when my mother bought her large yellow bowl from Tupperware. That bowl was lost with all our moving around over the past ten years. I finally broke down and bought this cause I missed not having it to use when baking. Now I will have this to pass on to my girls. That is how long they last!!Perfect bowl for everything you need to toss or mix. A lot of times I make my different salads in this bowl- then dump them in a pretty bowl for serving. I had a green one like this for 20 years- I hated to throw it away, but I found this one to replace it and I am a happy lady now !Color was a red red but who really cares about that if the salad you are carrying to some was is good. Very Fast service and well packaged thankyouWe make a large salad that we eat from during the week. The lettuce & other veggies stay nice & fresh throughout the week in this bowl.Tupperware never disappoints. This bowl is great for Popcorn and also mashed potatoes for large family gatherings (Holidays). Bought it for my daughter because she tries to come over and "borrow" mine all of the time!Of course I have to beg to get it back, so now she has one of her own.
