For the better: the color is gaudy, but that is in the photo yes can be seen. Our Small likes to play with the empty dish, twists and turns it, knock it off, etc. while I cook. It is pretty deep, so that even well-filled overflows nothing. Does not get hot in the microwave. Annoying: The suction cup is meant nice, but to be honest: I do not use it. Either I hold the cup in your hand or it is ansaugfrei on the table. However, our little one sits still not in high chair, maybe I suddenly need then something very urgent with suction ... But what has really annoyed me was that after a time Möhrenbrei the shell TURNS was inside and no longer looked beautiful. Real bad for the price! Honestly: Ordinary small plastic bowls do it for home as well. The cover is convenient for travel.
