5 Qt Stainless Steel Mixing Bowl

Great bowl. Comfortable to use and hold, easy to wash. For bread makers, a shower cap fits nicely over it in place of plastic wrap. My only complaint is the bottom flexes sometimes when I'm mixing vigorously by hand, which speaks to its material being on the thinner side. However, that does mean it's lightweight and inexpensive. For the price and ease of use and cleaning, I still give it 5 stars and would buy again.

This stainless steel mixing bowl is exactly what I was looking for. I have a 13qt stainless steel mixing bowl that I had been using for preparing homemade organic/gluten free breakfast sausage. To give you an idea of the amount in the recipe: 3-1/2 lbs ground meat, 16 lbs apples diced, about 24 oz bread crumbs, about 16 oz of my own dry spice mixture and about a cup of avocado oil. I was struggling to get it properly mixed in the 13qt bowl because it filled it right to the top. This 20qt version is just what I needed - you can see that there is sufficient space to mix everything without it falling out over the edge. The stainless steel is excellent quality and it's not too heavy when empty. It is huge and one must be creative when finding storage. I showed photo in dishwasher just to show that it fits; although I did wash by hand. Notice the sticker is on the bottom and not inside the bowl. Highly recommended for big batch processing!!

This bowl is much nicer than I expected. I own some smaller restaurant quality mixing bowls and I while I initially wanted to get a 30qt version of those I decided to try this one first since it’s a fifth the price. I’m glad I did because the quality is nearly as good. It’s much sturdier than I thought it would be. It’s heavy but not overly so and the bottom is true flat, it doesn’t pop or spin on the countertop.The size is great. We’re a family of ten and I can make batches of meals in this bowl that are large enough to freeze as 5-7 complete meals for all of us. I make things like fried rice, pasta bakes, chicken pot pies, stir fry, and casseroles with plenty of room to mix everything without worrying if I’m overfilling the bowl and will make a mess.It’s also nice for bread baking. I like to use my stand mixer to knead dough so I can bake a bunch of bread to freeze. This big mixing bowl means I can have them all rise in the same bowl while waiting to be baked and not dirty all my other mixing bowls.The one thing I don’t like about it is that it’s difficult to wash. I usually hold it upright and use the sprayer to clean it out then scrub it with it flat on the counter followed by a rinse.

The product is fine and works well. This version is .4 mm. When I buy the next one, I’ll order the heavy duty, which is .7mm thick. I think that will be a little more solid feeling.

Sturdy and well made. Use it for mixing and bread proofing. No complaints.

I bought this to mix up meat when I make 25 pound batches of sausage. This bowl works great for mixing the meat and seasonings together!

This is a great mixing bowl and comes in handy for all kinds of mixes. Whether making bread, cakes, salads, just to name a few. Great for proofing bread. Go with the Heavy Duty bowl if purchasing.

I primarily ordered this product for better mixing and marinating the meat. The delivery was fast and secured and the package arrived in perfect condition. Would recommend it to everyone. Solid 10/10
