excellent product/price point
As a former resident/chef of hawaii, i was excitied to find this hangiri for a really good price. With low expectations I decided to purchase this one because of its size. 14 inches, plenty of sushi rice room to feed a extra large family. Did a small first batch for just me and my wife, little big for just us, knowing i will use it for larger parties very happy about its size. As far as craftsmanship, it is decent, seems the rings are slightly looser then a ultra high quaily hangiri. Remember I am used to a very large & very expensive hangiri, not so afraid of dropping this one! I would recommend this to people who plan on sushi parties or have a minimum of 4 hardcore sushi eaters. If you only plan on using this for a couple's sushi night go with a 10in.
Best Bowl!
This is the biggest bowl I found at the best price. Works great for my sushi rice! Love it.
The reason this is so much cheaper than other hangiri...
...is that it is extremely shoddily made. The copper bands don't fit securely (i.e. they are not actually holding it together like a real hangiri) and are just tacked onto the hangiri for cosmetic purposes. It also faintly smells of the glue used to construct it. A real hangiri is made with fitted pieces of wood held securely with metal bands.
This will get the job done for cutting your rice, and the price is certainly right, but don't expect any sort of quality craftsmanship here.
