Affordable but not durableSueI recently bought the **IKEA OFTAST Serving Bowl** (9 inches, $2.49 plus tax) and found it to be a mixed experience.
### Pros:
- **Affordable**: The low price is fantastic for budget-conscious shoppers.
- **Space-saving**: It stacks neatly, making storage easy.
### Cons:
- **Durability Issues**: The edges chip very easily, raising concerns about using them for guests. Chipped chinaware reflects poorly on the host.
- **Environmental Concerns**: I wish IKEA would enhance the bowl's durability. Currently, it resembles single-use plastic bowls, contributing to landfill waste.
In summary, while the **OFTAST Serving Bowl** is attractive and budget-friendly, its fragility is a major drawback. I hope to see improvements in future designs, as it could be a great everyday option.4
Great quality for a great price.JeffreyBoth dishwasher and microwave safe, these bowls and dishes are a real value. If one chips or breaks, replacement is affordable.5
Great bowlLindaI love this bowl. I keep buying more because it has other uses. It’s a great serving bowl, but can also be used for soup, spaghetti, breakfast bowls, etc.
