I bought this bowl as a second bowl for my food processor. Because of the price I have chosen for the plastic bowl and against the stainless steel version. Although I still find rather high price for a plastic bowl! The article came well packaged and quickly into my room. First on the quality convinced me, remains to be seen whether they will permanently withstand the demands. Firmer batters I have not yet done so far is but normal cake keeps them out wonderfully! I had a little concern about whether the plastic would adversely affect the taste, but the food get no unpleasant plastic taste! The locking device I find much better and easier to clean than in the stainless steel bowl. I am pleased with my purchase and can the product!
Supplement dated 08/12/13: Meanwhile, I have also tried it firmer doughs - this bowl is only conditionally suitable. The bowl and the whole machine shake pretty back and forth, what did not happen in the stainless steel bowl.
