NowCooks Unbreakable Large Cereal Bowl set of 4 🥣
Description:
This set of large plastic bowls from NowCooks is built for everyday family use and outdoor dining, offering a lightweight, impact-resistant option for breakfasts, salads and parties. The unbreakable design makes them practical for households with children or for camping, while they remain dishwasher and microwave friendly according to the manufacturer.
Key Points
These bowls are lightweight and easy to hold thanks to gently curved sides that help with grip and stacking. They are presented as BPA-free and free from questionable mixed materials, meeting UK and EU food contact requirements (EU 2016/1416) according to the manufacturer. One practical advantage is that they are reusable and meant to replace single-use alternatives for snacks, cereal and even noodle dishes. 🍽️
The material is described as 100% polypropylene, which the brand highlights as commonly recyclable in domestic local collections. This means they can be recycled at the end of their life rather than ending up as mixed plastic waste. For families with less stable hands these bowls reduce the risk of breakage compared with ceramic.
Technical Specifications

Benefits
The combination of full-size capacity and low weight helps when serving a hearty breakfast or a portion of pasta outdoors. They are simple to stack, which saves space in cupboards and when packing for picnics or caravanning. The lack of heavy or fragile components means they are convenient for children and older adults who may prefer lighter tableware. 🧺
A realistic note is that polypropylene does not biodegrade quickly, so the environmental benefit depends on local recycling availability. Also, while labelled unbreakable for normal household drops and knocks, they can still be scratched or deformed by very high heat or sharp utensils, so care is advised when handling extreme conditions.
Usage Recommendations
Use these bowls for hot cereal, salads, soups and cold desserts, and place them on stable surfaces when very hot food is involved. They work well in dishwashers but it is best to avoid prolonged exposure to very high temperatures beyond the stated 120 °C to preserve shape and colour. For outdoor events and children’s meals they offer a safer alternative to ceramic, and their stackable design makes transport and storage straightforward.
