The bowls don't look very deep. Are they good for cereal or soup?

They aren't REALLY deep but they'll work for soup or cereal. They're quite large side-to-side so this also makes them fine for cereal & soup.

You're right, they don't look very deep. If they are separated I have to look closer to tell a plate from a bowl, the bowls are a bit deeper. But remember they are wide, and for camping - not every day use. You can easily do soup and cereal! When my kids need mess kits for camping I separate 1 set, pack into a mesh bag, and they are set! Never had problems with this set.

They are deep enough for cereal or soup, but if anything they are too wide--they are the same width as the plates, so a small serving of cereal might be kind of lost in the bowl.

Deep enough for a bowl of soup. Actually, I was very pleased with these bowls. They complemented my china and served my purpose very well.

The black bowl is shallow. We use a different bowl for cereal! But, I LOVE these dishes.

I have not used them in the microwave but I would think so as glass is usually tempered to withstand heat. You'd re-heat soup since they're soup bowls.

Yes I think they would hold 2 Cups of Soup. I measured in 2 cups of water and it filled it about a half an inch below the rim. They Are 3" inches Deep. I tend to like deeper bowls and that is one of the reasons I liked this set.

I would say if the soup is an appetizer serving size then yes, but I would say it is too small if the soup is your main course. I usually use them for a small side salad. Hope this helps.

Only about 1" deep. Not great as soup bowls or cereal bowls. I mostly use for salad, chili, stews, pasta dishes, steamed clams... But you certainly can use as you wish.

They are deep enough, but not real wide. They work for my boxers, but are smaller than the last bowls we had. I think I will buy bigger ones next time.

Yes, it is like 3/4" deep or so. Not good for soup but perfect for rice and veggies

I love these bowls for cereal, snacks, fruit etc. but I do not use them or anything plastic for soup or hot foods.

Not as good as their lighter Corelle counterparts , they fit halfway and are pretty deep so if you stack 4 bowls they are wobbly

They don't stack well. The do wiggle, and I would not buy them again because the bowls barely hold an 18 oz. can of soup.

Yes, they stack just fine. These dishes, do not "nest" like cereal bowls, but they do stack. I bought these for my husband a few years ago & we love them. They are made well, shipped fast and have help up, money well spent in my opinion.

I think the soups spoons could be used as small serving spoons and the teaspoons are not the traditional size. But if you've seen true teaspoons they are almost useless in their application. I find the teaspoons are perfect for soups and such. That being said great flatware set for the price.

No, would be much too big. Are more like salad bowls for a big salad. Almost too big for individual salad bowls. Also don't know if they wouldn't crack with hot soup.

Only if you want just two or three spoonfuls of soup. I wouldn't put hot soup in them, but warm would be ok I think.

They are very good for dessert - cake, cookies but too small for salad. If the teacup is small, they may work, but probably better to get plates with the rims for that purpose. Hope this helps.
