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.

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.

This dinnerware was exactly what I was looking for: simple white, dishwasher/microwave safe, decent size plates and bowls with no coffee mugs. Unfortunately, the dinnerware chips very easily. We managed to chip a plate and bowl the first month we used the dinnerware. A year later we have numerous plates and bowls from this set that are chipped. Are we "hard" on dinnerware? Maybe. Our previous dinnerware set lasted 15 years with only 1 chipped plate. I would not recommend this set if you don't like chips in your plates and bowls.

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.

I ordered a 3 of these sets. I was so excited to get them. As I unpacked them, I was disappointed----my "NEW" dishes had been used, and returned. There was food still on about 1/2 of the pieces---in all THREE (3) sets. DISGUSTING!!! (this website wouldn't load my pictures of the items)

I am pretty grossed out right now. I just opened these up and I’m pretty sure I was shipped USED dishes because there were sticky spots, liquid splash marks, and residue left on about half of the dishes. Ew.

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..

Initially I loved this set for the size and variety of pieces. However, they started chipping/breaking almost immediately, with regular everyday use. I’d say most of the items are chipped at this point, and we’ve had to throw several away due to breaking or chipping. Very disappointing.

I bought two sets and have four chips in dinner plates, three chips in the dessert plates, and one cracked bowl in the span of roughly a year. I was disappointed in the overall quality and consistency.
