Prodyne BOWL, ICED Salad-4 Qt, Off-white

This kept the food nice and cold and it looks very nice too. Good quality. Was a little pricey but when it comes to serving food that needs to be cold, it’s a great server.

I'm so glad I took a chance and purchased these. They worked perfect and kept my food cold for the 4 hours I spent in 90+ degree weather. I will definetly reccomend these to all my friends. They look great and function as expected. Plenty of room for large batches to share. The metal bowl sat a little high when I first put the ice in. As the ice melted down they seated properly and worked better than expected. I look forward to having these on hand.

I had a cold or hot food bowl that fit into a styrofoam container. It wasn't exactly beautiful but it worked well. I used it for years. However, its time had come, so I started to look for something similar. I couldn't find anything similar, but I came across the Salad bowl with the dome lid. It was a winner from the beginning. It looks very, very nice. It even made the ice in the bottom of the bowl look decorative, too. The best thing is that it works. We have gone to picnics and food stays cold for hours. I highly recommend it.

This is the best way to bring a salad or dessert to a potluck!

We've been looking for this type of item for awhile to keep our bed-and-breakfast fruit salad chilled. It keeps it chilled fairly well and it keeps the local Health Department happy. Just put a bit MORE ice in the bowl and set the stainless steel bowl on top so it rises above the lip a half inch or so. Over time, it will settle into the ice. If you put the "perfect" amount of ice in at the start, it will likely melt TOO far down to be of use. We use a stainless steel serving ladle/spoon, not the plastic one it comes with. The bowl and lid are apparently a polystyrene type of clear plastic, so we refrain from using our high-temp commercial dish machines (read...I'm melting!). It may scratch easily...so treat it gently. I wish it were acrylic....but alas....3/25/13 Be sure that you (or your "helpful" staff) only rinse and wipe this item. I discovered a well-meaning attempt at washing this with a scrubby. After discovering the scour-mark "haze" on the bowl last week, and subsequently grumbling to myself, I remembered that this unit is polystyrene plastic. As a softer plastic, it CAN be buffed out. So, just grab a DRY terry towel, roll up your sleeves, apply firm pressure, and buff like a madman (or madwoman, whichever shoe fits). It returned to ALMOST new condition. By the way, take a black "sharp marking pen" and write on the bottom in reverse letters so it can be read from the top "HAND RINSE ONLY/NO SCRUB". Good luck! Still working great though!

The media could not be loaded. This just made my day. Very beautiful and just what I was expecting. Not big and not smaller than what I thought it would. I would have loved a bigger one but just me this is perfect for my home salad or fruit bowl. Buy it if you like nice and classy things

Next time you want to take a cold dish to a get together, consider taking it in this attractive, functional bowl and then leave it for the hostess or host.

I use this every time I make civiche for a party. Keeps it fresh and cold.

my food stayed cold for more then 4 1/2 hrs. I was worried the ice would melt & overflow from reading previous reviews but it didn't happen. I filled it 1/3 full of ice like the instructions said. Looks expensive. Love it. So nice to have a lid. The spoons fit in a slot in the lid nicely.

Like it a lot
