Can you mix in these bowls? Will it scratch them?

I bought them for my wife because they are very light weight. She she hasn't mixed in them, but said she has used a whisk on them and they didn't scratch. She uses them primarily for food storage and finds the coordinating colanders super handy.

Sorry, we haven't tried this yet either. I can tell you that they are run through the dishwasher routinely (which runs on a hot water cycle) and there have been no signs of wear or separation. Overall these bowls have held up since December 2013 when they were purchased. I can say if you use a mixer on them they do scratch, and the lids are by no means water tight, they just sit on the bowl.

Yes I make a lot of cakes and use these bowls to mix everything together with beaters and they haven't flaked yet. I've had them for a few years and bought them for my sister.

Yes I think that would be fine. You may get scratches on the inside from your beaters, but you should be fine. I tend to use mine with a wooden spoon as I already have a bowl that attaches to my mixer. I think it would be ok.

Per other comments, they are fairly fragile if they are bumped or dropped, true. Some items can bounce and survive but these will chip or shatter into pieces. Note: I stack mine in the cabinet but keep a folded paper towel or two between each bowl to prevent any possible chipping. I have had mine 2 yrs or so and all still fine which is a miracle for me!

If you heat something too long/too hot it would affect the temperature of the bowl, but if you are careful to remove it mostly by touching the lip of the bowl, you should be okay. They are a thinner microwave plastic than I prefer.

I've had plates, salad plates, bowls and coffee mugs for several months now, have used them daily for all meals, have no damage whatsoever. So I would say that you're safe in their not scratching. I love them. Just never put them in the microwave unless they are at room temperature (meaning if you've stored something on them in the frig, move the food to another plate that is at room temperature if you need to heat the food up in the microwave).

Yes you can mix and match but they come with these little cardboard pieces and none of them will stay together unless u use the little cardboard pieces personally I thought it was a rip off cuz they should stay together themselves without having to use the cardboard pieces. My advice don't buy waste of money

I wouldn't , I only use these as serving trays. The strays have a shiny surface and I really feel they trays would be scratched.

No. They're too small. I have the same mixer and got these covers and they fit just inside the bowl, but will not actually seal.

They are a soft plastic. So long as you are using hand mixing tools you should be fine. Power tools/ mixers would be a no-no.

If they are not too hot, I think they would be ideal for this. The reason being, when I first got these bowls I used them to serve purée baby food, but one day I poured some pumpkin purée that was a bit hot and the spoon that I was using to stirred the purée got colored from the bowl. Since then I only use it to serve cornflakes, or fruits. But, I guess you could.

I have never tried that with them, but the rehydrated pieces are kinda small. They would work in something like "Hashbrowns" or with Scrambled eggs, but doubtful as a stand alone dish.

I only use a wood spoon so can not say. It is very thick so I doubt a scratch would matter anyway.

They do not scratch with a mixer. The interiors are a very smooth white plastic that is shiny.

I use mine for mixing with a hand mixer and have not had any problems with scratching. It is made of very heavy material and hand washes up very easily. I love that the rubber (?) on the bottom holds it to the counter while mixing. I love these bowls!
