I Highly Recommend Chinet From Sam’s Club

For my family’s Christmas Eve gathering, I used Chinet paper plates for desserts (8.75 in., 225 ct.) I had already bought the Chinet platters to use as dinner plates. Both products are exceptionally sturdy, and Sam’s price was very reasonable. I will definitely use this product again for the next gathering.

Premium Price Paper Plates but Lower Quality

The China plates used to be of a premium quality. These plates certainly have deteriorated over the last couple years and are no longer of a premium quality, but still have a premium price.

Ope! Sounds like a party foul on our part. Here's the truth—Chinet Classic® products are made from pre-consumer recycled material and pressed into form. We love using recycled materials, but it means we are constantly re-evaluating and optimizing the manufacturing process. Recently, all Chinet Classic® molded fiber tableware transitioned to a new Oil & Grease Resistant (OGR) barrier technology. Because of that, you didn't get our best product, and we apologize. We are working to correct the issue. In the meantime, feel free to contact a representative by email at my.chinet@huhtamaki.com or call 1-800-847-4129. Thank you!

Great Size

This luncheon plate is a great size but questionable quality! First package I purchased, I returned as there was some plates were discolored and smeared with some stain. Sam's gladly returned my money for these. I purchased a second package......no stains but several plates do have spots where the paper is somewhat bubbled.

Not that strong

These are good for snacking but not for food with any type of moisture, which actually are most foods.

Soggy plate

These plates unlike other paper plates are bery fragile and cannot hold any type of liquid. For example from steaks or spaghetti. The plate needs to be used in conjunction with another plate for solid items like sandwhiches or breaded items

Won't Purchase Again

Great process, but not to a standard I would have thought for Chinet. Leak, not hold proof, & really not fit to heat food on, as any liquid seeps thru bottom. It's a no for me.

Horrible plates

I purchased these to have sturdy plates for a large crowd. These are the absolute worst plates ever. If I could have gotten my money back-I would have. The minute anything hits the plate-it turns flimsy like paper. If I could give 1 star I would. They are not even good for chips and salsa. Waste of money. An embarrassment.

Chinet paper plates

I had to return them because they looked soiled and dirty! I showed the clerk how they looked and she agreed. I thought it could have been just one batch but when I exchanged it for another one I opened it in front of the clerk and we both saw that one was soiled and dirty too! So she gave me a refund. I need to call the company and let them know as well.

Disappointed

When using, the paper plate bottom disintegrates if food that contains liquid (eg sauces, dressings, etc) sits on it too long. This is especially true if you also use a plastic knife to cut food that sits on top of plate also! How disappointing - especially since this is supposed to be a brand name company. Will not purchase these again.
