They are exactly as described. Sturdy, keep the soup warm, and attractive. Additionally, customer service is exceptional. One bowl had a small imperfection. Contacted the company and within 24 hours received acknowledgment and steps to take for a replacement. Replacement should be here in a few days. Kudos for customer service 👍

If you think these will be beautiful in your kitchen, then you're right -- the pictures represent the red ombre bowls exactly. They are a good size and weight for soup. The rounded handles are a little short and slick for me, although the length means they all fit into a small space when broiling. The leverage feels wrong -- there's no bracing point for my thumb, so I make sure to have a potholder in my opposite hand in case my fingers slip on that smooth round handle. I don't know yet if that feeling will improve as I get used to the bowls. The bowls are unlikely to get broken in shipping as they are well packaged, but I advise you to take them outside to the lawn for unpacking. The bowls fit tightly into a Styrofoam nest which breaks and shatters into a million little gnat-sized pieces as you try to pull the bowls out. You WILL drop one or more bowls, and the particles cling to everything except the inside of your trash can. (I didn't think about checking to see if they dissolve in water.) There's a recipe card for onion soup in the box to make you feel better about the whole thing on a cold day.UPDATE: I've found a way to grip the handle which is less intuitive than "thumb on top" but more secure. Form a loose fist with the knuckle of the thumb resting easily against the side of the first finger (think of holding a stick for a dog to tug). The back of your hand is up. Slide the end of the bowl's handle into the hole in your fist. The end of the handle pushes up against the inside of your hand from the weight of the contents in the bowl; the first three fingers wrap around the handle; the side of the thumb braces lightly against the opposite side of the handle and the fleshy part of the thumb continues to rest against the side of your first finger without curling under to try to grip around the handle. Using this grip, I can lift the bowl in and out of the oven or turn the bowl sideways to empty it without needing a brace from my other hand. The leverage feels secure. The handle really does stay cool while the contents get hot, just remember not to push your fingers all the way against the side of the hot bowl when setting your grip.

I love these bowls. They are the perfect size . The handles are awesome. Great quality .

We bought KOOK French Onion Soup bowls, after using their Double-Handled soup bowls for several months. The colors of the ceramic bowls are wonderful, and the bowls stand up to oven, microwave and dishwasher use. The 15-ounce size is just right for individual servings, unlike the gigantic soup bowls and mugs sold by other brands. We use them every day for lunch and dinner, not only for soups and stews, but also for individual casseroles, and individual portions of dinners. We bought colors that blend beautifully with our china and stoneware sets. And they arrive in very strong packaging as well. Great product!

I love the look of these soup bowls, and the quality is good. The handles are convenient for carrying them to the table, although the bowls are heavier than I expected. I gave 4 stars because I don’t like the two small holes on the back of the handles. I don't want to soak them because of that, and I mostly hand-wash them so that not much water gets inside.

Great for reheating in the micro.

The color is great.

These soup bowls are excellent for French onion soup! We love them! They wash very well too.
