Are the bowls quite thick? I can't tell from the picture, but they look thicker than others. Are they heavy?

Yes,they are thick and yes, they are heavy. I wanted something that would go in the microwave and also that I could use for letting bread dough rise. They are fine for that, but rather heavy for an old lady 84 years old. They are nice looking and have an old fashioned look as if they belonged to my grandmother. If I dropped one, it would break, but it is still better than a metal one which I don't like for raising bread dough.

Yes, very thick and heavy. I've had them over a year and like them very much. They are sturdy and remind me of old fashioned work bowls.

yes, the bowls are thick and heavy, but no more so than my mother's old bowls from the 1940s, which i love.

Yes, they are thick bowls and I love them. They are made very well and I love the sizes and design and the colors. They will be beautiful on my table during the next couple of months, especially during October and November, but can be used on a daily basis. Hope this helps. HAPPY HOLIDAYS!!!!

This set of bowls are gorgeous and sturdy too. They are thick as a good stoneware mixing bowl should be. But I pick them and wash them easily. You'll love them!

I would say more lightweight- I am surprised how much I like them. Not overly expensive but seem to be the right sizes for mixes and recipes. I have some stoneware bowls that weigh a ton- these are easy to manage.

They are somewhat thin. I would guess that they are less than 1/4 " thick (but durable).

Yes they are. I use them a lot. Microwave, dishwasher - they are holding up very well. Not as nice as some more expensive bowls (in terms of the look) but practical.

Yes they are . I've used these bowls daily since I purchased them last year and have been very happy with them .

They are not very thick but also not very thin. I didn't have much problem with them so far. They are not very good for frying though.

As to the thickness they are thick on the bottom, but along the sides they are pretty average. Not too thick, but not thin either.

They are not thick. My only issue is that I find them a little to small. Nevertheless, I am happy with the Arepa maker.

They are sturdy. There are not like a lightweight material. Mine go right in the sink with all my dishes and they withstand it fine. Quality is great!

I have been using mine for several months now and am very happy with them. They are not one those lightweight versions. This is the real deal good quality heavy flatware!

They are not quite as thin as corelle, but they are not far off. I would say that they are a tiny bit thicker with just a little more weight to them. They are definitely closer to corelle than the heavier stoneware on the market.

They are thicker then they look....Very sturdy!!! Yes the handles are smooth comfortable to hold.....we had a neighbor with big hands use them and he had no complaints that I'm aware of.....

Yes they are. They are heavy and wash up in the dishwasher very well. We love them!

They are lightweight. If you want more of a heavyweight bowl you might want to check out the OXO bowls, however I don't believe they come with "lids" like these do.

Yes, they are heavier than most other dishes. More durable and beutiful too! I've had mine nearly a year now, and not a single chip or nick.

They are actually fairly light, not heavy like stone wear. I love the dishes but the shape of the bowls are the only thing I really don't like - they have a large rim, so for salads they work fine but for soups etc they're not my favorite...

I don't think they are that thick, but they do a great job! We had to move a large entertainment center when our floors were done. We also have the other ones for carpet and those work great as well. Definitely worth it!
