Been buy for 10 plus product quality is not the same I'm sure ingredients has been changed or substituted to save the company money but cost the consumer big time my last order was in fact my last order extremely disappointed oh and the price has increased by like 3 buck in the past 3 years with lower quality

What happened?! We have been buying these same plates for YEARS! The last batch we bought is horrible! Completely flimsy, doesn't hold much at all anymore...They are so lightweight now they buckle and end up folding in the middle. Doesn't hold half of much as it used too. The price went up recently and looks like the quality went way down.

As of this year Hefty paper plates have began to have some sort of flaking. It has proven quite dangerous and actually is a choking hazard to my family. I will no longer buy these plates that I've purchased for years. It seems like they have sacrificed quality for more profit. Terrible.

I have bought many brands and this one is my favorite. Well it was till recently. The reason I paid more to biy these instead of different brands is because they where always heavy duty type playes. They didn't bend when there was food on it and tou could heat stuff in the microwave on them without them melting. The last 3 packages I purchased seem to be made different. They curl up and or melt when I heat something up or put something a little hot in them. They never use to do that.

I always bought Hefty brand plates. Then they were strong and sturdy. Now they melt in the microwave just heating leftovers. Why the change and still raise the price. I'm disappointed now I'm searching for another brand . Hope theres something out there worth buying!

Foam plate description should be mentioned in the product summary screen and not in additional screens when you're trying to purchase and search for paper plates this came up, not microwaveable and it's 100% bad for the environment because foam doesn't decompose ?.

These plates USED to be great! What happened? Now the plates are all off centered, have a lot of foam debris. We have to be wiping each one of them before using them just to clear out all the foam off of them. There are some that are too shredded for use. Don't have the time to return them. It's the second package that comes out in this poor condition. We order curbside, so we don't really see what we get u til we get home. Truly disappointed

I was tempted to give a one star rating but I gave two because I used to really like these plates but lately, for a few months or so, as I’m about to serve my kids food I keep finding thin shreds/ pieces of plastic on the sides and top of the plates. I’m not willing to risk some of those loose plastic pieces to get into my kids food and them potentially getting sick from it. I’m very disappointed with how the quality of these plates have gone down hill. I tried to call the company but couldn’t get ahold of anyone.

When this pack of plates were about $8 they were amazing!!!! After the price hike the plates are trash want an uneven poor cut paper plate this is your plate!!! Only one side has a ledge while the other side is cut on the design makes your plate lean to one side on more

I’ve bought these hefty foam plates for years and never had a problem until a few years ago when I started noticing on each plate a lot of particles which look like little tiny pieces of the foam plate on top of every single plate…. it’s very scary because it made me wonder if I hadn’t noticed it before and how much of those tiny foam particles my kids and I have unknowingly consumed. When I do purchase these plates it’s annoying because I have to rinse off every single one and dry it before I use it so we don’t eat those tiny foam particles! Come Hefty, you can do better than that and you better hope it’s not going to cause health issues or cancer for people down the road. I have picture and video of a bag of these plates but I won’t post it unless someone asks to see it.
