We would NEVER go back to regular styrofoam plates that you can buy at grocery stores. These are the absolute best and are sturdy and strong. We buy at least 2 packs when they’re on sale at Sam’s Club so we don’t run out. We don’t use them for every meal but they are great to have.

the quality of these plates has gone from Best to Worst. Used to buy these plates regularly for years! Last couple of years or so, the quality of the plates has fallen tremendously. Started to see a few plates coming out crimped, attributed that to handling or shipping. For over a year now, most of the plates if not all of them come out damaged, cut crooked, or crimped. Very disappointing.

We assumed these were paper plates, but they’re kind of a foam/plastic construction. Notice the type of material is not indicated on the packaging (at least, not that you can tell on the website). Okay, unless you planned to use them in the microwave (which we did).

The quality of the Hefty Paper Plates has drastically changed. They have become somewhat flimsy and not as sturdy and strong. I’m not sure if it is just this individual package that I recently purchased or the quality itself has changed. This has not been my experiences with this product in the past, but time things were much different.

The quantity OUTWEIGHS THE QUALITY! Noticed this for a while when purchasing the plates. The plates seems as though they are overruns and they are not of quality as they were before. QUALITY CONTROL IS NOT CHECKING THE PRODUCTS, ONLY LETTING THEM THROUGH THE DOOR FOR A FAST BUCK! It’s amazing what Sam’s company will allow and maybe they don’t know until the consumer brings it to their attention! The plates at this point, should be either lower in price, or SOLD TO AN OUTLET/SECOND HAND VENDOR COMPANY, [Big Lots, Ollies, etc…]

The quality was better lately by last two times in the 3 months I have had terrible cut shaped plates that were deformed a lot to the point I had to throw out 5-6 plates. Hopefully they will correct this and be as consistent and decent quality as it use to be

Strongest paper plates I’ve ever used & I’ve purchased & used numerous brands to come to this conclusion. Recently there has been a defect in the plates where they were different sizes & they melt in the microwave but hopefully this was a temporary problem.

Trusted, tried and true. Strong plates. Food won't leak through.

Great Price for the number of plates, but they don't last in a microwave.

These are great plates. They are sturdy and won’t collapse when filled with food.
