How heavy are these bowls, particularly the 4 qt?

Actually, they are very heavy. But that's okay with me because they are very solid, not cheap or flimsy.

The weight of the bowls matches the volume: 4qt weighs 4 pounds, 2 1/2 weighs 2 1/2 pounds, 1 1/2 weighs 1 1/2 pounds, weighed on my kitchen scale. The heavy weight anchors the bowls to your counter surface, so they don't scoot around. Be careful, though-they weigh a lot and it is easy to lose your grip while mixing!

If you equate heaviness with quality then that they are. Though not 'burdensome heavy' to make them difficult to handle. Not knowing what you term 'heavy' I can certainly say they are not light. Another thing to know, they do not take to microwaving well. I found that with overuse they can become wavy at the outer edge. I simply don't microwave them. Overall, very happy with the product.

They are not flimsy by any means. A good solid weight, but not heavy. Best parts, the lips for lifting and the silicone bottom keeps the bowls from slipping on granite countertops or any other smooth top. Love them...and they are pretty as well as functional. Although it says 3 bowl set, mine came with four.

I can't tell you what they weigh exactly but they are lighter than they appear. They are no heavier or maybe a little lighter than my regular cups. Not too light to make them unstable or easily breakable. They are nice cups and stand up well. We use them daily and wash them regularly in the dishwasher.

Hello!they are not to heavy in my opinion and i'm really weak lol. They are definitely good quality and they aren't too light to feel cheap but not too heavy that is hard to manipulate them while cooking or doing dishes. I hope it helps!

I would say they are lighter than ceramic or glass, but are a really sturdy plastic bowl that looks like glass. I love this set.

The material of this bowl is a heavy plastic. The handle and bottom are covered in rubber. It is a 2 qt/2l bowl and is sturdy but not heavy. This household likes this bowl!

They aren't heavy. As for size I'm not sure why people are saying they're "too small".... It really depends on what you want to use them for. I bought them for ice cream and I think they're the perfect size for a normal serving.

I can't give you a solid answer on this just now. The mixer itself isn't heavy. It's made of plastic. The glass bowls are much thicker than in the past and they are pretty heavy. I'll try to weigh it over the next few days and get back to you.

Don't know how to answer you. These are not heavy but they are not so light as to feel flimsy. These silverware is in between the 2. Heavy enough so that it won't bend easily but not so heavy that a child can use easily without any problems. My suggestion is to order a set and if you don't like them, return them. I ordered 2 sets because I loved the design, weight, quality and the price.

Hello! I purchased mine ages ago, and still going strong. They are quite thick but not heavy. Have come in great use at our house.

Not real heavy. They are a good set of dishes. So far I've had no problems with them and they are beautiful!!!!

They are heavier than Corelle but not much heavier. They're just about right (for us).

No, the dishes are not heavy. The longer I have them, the more I like them.

They are not particularly heavy at all. Yes, they may be slightly heavier than plastic, but by a small margin. It is a quality product.

Hi Kathy, I don't find the dishes to be heavy. I had stoneware before that was very heavy but these seem to be the same weight as a normal dish....not as light as Corelle though. Hope this helps. Lisa
