Hi Dave, Good question. It's Stainless steel. In fact, it's 304 stainless steel. Here is a quick read about 304 Stainless: Grade 304 is the standard "18/8" stainless; it is the most versatile and most widely used stainless steel, available in a wider range of products, forms and finishes than any other. It has excellent forming and welding characteristics. The balanced austenitic structure of Grade 304 enables it to be severely deep drawn without intermediate annealing, which has made this grade dominant in the manufacture of drawn stainless parts such as sinks, hollow-ware and saucepans. I hope that answers your question. Thanks! Michael Weir Kitchen-Classics

Michele, I should think so they are stainless steel. I do not have a dishwasher so cannot give you specific data. I am fairly satisfied with the bowls considering the cost in comparison to some of the professional stainless bowls.

The set that I have is really heavy duty. As far as gauge, I can only guess that the handle thickness is around 12-14 gauge; the "spoons" are around 16-20 gauge (that part is thinner because they stamped from the same piece of sheet metal.) The stainless itself is 304 or 304L, which would include 18-8 and 18-10 types. In my opinion, this set would be at the top end of the heavy duty stuff that is available.

The bowls have to be 24 oz each. They are definitely not each 48 oz. I have two of them for my two Bernese mountain dogs. I love them! Easy to clean!

They are not 32 oz bowls! They are around 5" wide and 1 3/4 " deep. We really like these bowls for soup and chili meals at church and at home.

They are food grade, no problem there at all. Been using them for years and so has a friend. IDK re yorkshire pudding. Read the specs online, not sure 100% re how much heat they can withstand.

I don't think so. The packaging states they are 18/chrome (whatever that is) instead of 18/10 stainless steel. Also they are stamped 18/C (again, whatever that is) and not stamped 18/10. I returned mine because the website information does not match the packaging or the stamp on the utensils.

I think they are 304. The 316 are way more expensive. These work fine. no rust.

Found the grade on their website: food grade type 304 18/8 stainless steel. No aluminum and it is not lined with plastic. We use glass bottles but were traveling and wanted something more sturdy. Bonus that it converts to a sippy cup (baby is still trying to figure it out though, you really need to suck to get anything out). I'm happy with this purchase so far, but haven't had it long enough/used it enough yet to write a proper review. Hope this helps :)

Sorry, no idea of material or if they are lead free. All I know is that I love these bowls and use them all the time to store salads & take with me to pot-lucks. The lids sometimes come loose during transport so I make sure there are no liquids that might spill out.

Yes, they are stainless steel and have a silicone bottom, they will stay put as well. I love these bowls. Use them all the time.

It doesn't specify but they are almost certainly 18/0 rather than 18/10. That is the cheapest stainless grade NSF will certify.

I did not keep those bowls as a few were broken when I opened the package. I then ordered different bolw. I have some similar to the Arc ones which I have had for many years and they are fine in the microwave but really cannot be sure that these ones are.

Hi Shantanu - I am not at the property where these are stored so I am not able to view the bowls and see if there is a manufacturing mark. I doubt that there is one. I do not know where these bowls are made. S.

The Best Stainless Steel Flatware GradeEither 18/10 or 18/8 flatware is best. Both are made from the same base material, grade 304 steel; 18/10 is something of a marketing trick and should not cost any more than 18/8. Grades such as 18/0 and 13/0 will have a less durable shine and less rust-resistance.

I'm sure they're 316ss they go in the dishwasher and come out with no rust like you could get with 304ss- I work with stainless steel and would be considered an expert in the field.
