Vollrath 69080 8 Qt. Heavy Duty Stainless Steel Mixing Bowl

I screwed up with this purchase. I wanted a really heavy mixing bowl. I thought when Vollrath said heavy, that they meant heavy. i was wrong. This is a fine bowl, but it's not the kind of heavy I was looking for. The Tablecraft H834 is what I wanted. The Tablecraft bowl is nearly twice the weight of this bowl.

We purchased almost every size of these Vollrath mixing bowls for our kitchen staff and they like them. The weight is pretty heavy but it definitely helps with denting. We haven't had to throw any away due to denting. The one thing that is different and sometimes difficult to clean is the different surfaces. The inner surface is a matte almost raw stainless and the outside is a #2 polish finish. It would be nice if both surfaces were polished. Other than that, we love these mixing bowls!

Bowls were sturdy and thick, however the finish sucks. The interior is a matte finish and the exterior is shiny. When you stack them they are HARD to remove. This is a total waste of time and a headache when you want to pick up a bowl from a stack. You literally have to pry them apart as they really get stuck. AVOID THEM. The fact that they get stuck to each other is enough of a time waste that no matter how sturdy and thick they are, you will get frustrated using them.

This mixing bowl is super heavy duty and built to last. This is my favorite mixing bowl and I have purchased other of this series due to their high quality. I look forward to many years of use from this bowl.

I like Vollarath mixing bowl. Nice quality, and durable forever. I have used the bigger one for 10 years, and never has to be replaced.

This thing is gigantic. Perfect for mixing a family-style salad, a huge batch of cookies or pasta. Worth it to get these over the cheap ones because they don't dent very easily and will last much longer.

Perfect medium sized mixing bowl. Whether commercial kitchen or for the home, this mixing bowl provides countless uses. The heavy duty construction can take a beating but is still lightweight

Excellent bowl. Extremely sturdy and perfect for small prep or mini main marie. Very easy to clean as well. I would buy again if needed.

This is a fantastic quality small mixing bowl! I use this for mixing up small batches of salsa together and love it. It is heavy duty, has good weight to it, and would highly recommend!

The Vollrath 8 Qt. Heavy Duty Stainless Steel Mixing Bowl is a quality product. I use the bowl to make pastry pie crust dough. In large size allows me to neatly make crust for two pie within.

This mixing bowl is large enough to give a toddler a bath! But it works well for us to mix very large batches of of grain salads and even bread doughs. It is made of heavy duty stainless steel so there is no worry of it denting. It is too big for our dishwashing machine so for us it is hand wash only. It is also difficult to store on our shelves due to the size but we've found it a home.

Top is nice and wide for mixing things in especially if using your hands. Lightweight but sturdy even though it was thinner than I expected. Good quality steel.

I use this for big stuff and I have not been able to find a better deal out there. It is so simple to clean up afterwards no matter how sticky the sauces are that I am using.

Very nice mixing bowls. it is strong, so it doesnt break, or dent when we dropped it a few times. Its deep so you dont have to worry about any spills coming out. Very easy to clean. Great product, would recommend for people in baking business.

This is my go to bowl for mixing a salad for two. The brushed stainless interior looks very nice, the metal thickness is excellent, and the bowl has great handling properties for mixing up a quick batch of dough.

Vollrath 79300 Heavy Duty 30 Qt. Stainless Steel Mixing Bowl is a very good quality bowl and holds a lot of product. We have had a good experience.

Great, sturdy bowl. It's my go to for baking spherical cakes. You may need to use another flat layer to join the two and a bit to build up the top but it's a great alternative to wobbly spherical pans.

We have used Vollrath products for so so long in our restaurant kitchens. It is one of the few brands that we know and trust very well. This mixing bowl is very durable and strong and cheap too.

These are weighted perfectly so they do not wander. Excellent for prep work. We use these (8 Qt. size) to prepare large batches of sauerkraut. I can only imagine the other sizes are equally suitable for whatever task you may have in mind.

Good, large mixing bowl for salads, doughs, marinades, etc. I like that it's very heavy duty stainless steel with a nice finish, but the inside finish gets scratched a little too easily.
