Prep Bowls from MoMA

prep_bowlsThe MoMA Shop always has unique design items for the kitchen, but they also have some good deals too. This set of melamine prep bowls adds some color to an already useful item and is selling for $20. 

I bought a very similar set at Williams-Sonoma a year ago and love the bowls. The non-skid bottom, solid construction, and functional design make these prep bowls one of the most used items in my kitchen. At Williams-Sonoma the cost is $38, almost double the asking at MoMA.

I have seen prep bowls at Bed Bath & Beyond that are also similar, but the construction is a lot more flimsy than the Williams-Sonoma product. The three-bowl set at Bed Bath & Beyond cost $15.

Regardless, these type of prep bowls are extremely useful, and I highly recommend the Williams-Sonoma bowls, but you also may want to consider the more colorful MoMA set. More on this product later.
