Stylish enough for family gathering and yet basic enough for everyday use. Price was nice enough where I was able to get two sets and get rid of the "blended dishware from previous dishes and bowls. People have complained of the dishware holding heat from microwave and I find they hold no more heat than other dishes. Of course if youre going to heat anything over 2 minutes in the microwave almost any plate is going to get hot. I have personally nuked cold chicken and leftover pork roasts and was able to hold the dishes without any potholder or towel. Just use your brain and dont grab a plate unprotected immediately if its been in the microwave for more than 3 minutes.

Bright white, large plates, big salad bowls that i am able to use as serving bowls. The cereal bowls are just right, and work well for desert. The smaller sandwich plates work great for pie, or small meals. I am very happy with the set. They don't scratch when cutting food, fit well in the dishwasher, and so far no foods have stained them. Also being white its easy to chang the look by adding color in place mats, table cloths, and napkins.

This is exactly what I've been looking for. I love the 2 two types of bowls, cereal and pasta bowls. Simple, elegant style and a great price!! I got the whole set for less than one bowl other places!!

They are basic but very nice looking. Shipping and packaging were good. Used for two week and still good as knew. Love the larger bowls. Would have liked more colors to choose from.

I absolutely love this dinnerware! The large bowls are perfect for salad, the small plates perfect for sandwiches. The smaller bowls are perfect for mixing eggs or cereal. They are very securely packed.

Really like this dinnerware! The large flat bowls are much larger than you think they are and work great for pasta or a hearty soup or stew. Heck, you could use them as smaller serving bowls too. Dinner plates are deep also. Only complaint I had is that you have to check for flaws in the finishes. I bought 4 sets and out of the 4, I had enough pieces with flaws to return one set and replace. But as usual, Sam's returned that set with no issues or hassles! It is what I was looking for with the simple, clean lines.

There were a lot of don’t do instructions, so I decided to return them. Porcelain dishware is delicate. I had already had been gifted some and they chip too easily.

I love the design and how functional the pieces are, but the bottoms aren't glazed. We were worried that they would scratch our surfaces, so we returned them.

At first loved the dinnerware, but then noticed some of the plates were warped. I don’t need them for anything real nice, just everyday use so they will be fine but if you want them for guests you might want to go to another set.

They must have switched factories because these dishes are quite different from the set (same pattern) I had previously purchased. Necessary because they break and chip quite easily. Either buy 3x what you need upfront, or buy something else that is higher quality..
