I'm still not sure whether to give it 4 or 5 stars. The silver color reminds me of "prison food". I might have preferred a bronze or brass color. I actually wanted plastic .... but they weren't always on offer. The disadvantage is that the metal bowl also gets hot in the microwave... To very hot even.
That's why it would have been smart if the basin had small feet on the underside. So that you don't have to put the whole surface of the Beken on the tablecloth. ( because of pain and so on )
Super solid!
