Strong, highly water resistant and the perfect size for lunch or light dinner. They are also very useful for countertop work with easy cleanup. (Slicing tomatoes, thawing meat, weighing dry ingredients, light chopping and shredding, etc. Good value and high quality.

These Members Mark paper plates compare to the name brand paper plates. They are sturdy, do not absorb any kind of liquid and come in 300 of them at an excellent price. These are all I buy except for holidays. Then I buy the Member's Mark disposable plastic ones. My daughter thinks they pass quite well as china. The paper plates are pretty, too.

I like these paper plates because they are heavy duty. I use them quite often for church dinners and I never have to worry about someone's plates collapsing and food sliding off the plate. Many people buy the cheaper plates and use two or three of them stacked on top of each other to make the plate strong enough.

I bought these plates to cook hot pockets. They worked so well that my wife thought my hot pockets were hand-made. Little did I know that these plates would allow me to relive my wedding night all over again for 7 hours after dinner. I walked funny for three days. Best plates ever.

Although I do like the sturdiness of these plates when I sub them for regular plates, my last package was different. Instead of several packs of 50 or 60 plates individually wrapped, it was just a bag of 300 plates. The individual packs made it easy to store in my limited pantry space. I ended up making my own packs using some plastic wrap. Hope they bring back the individually packs in the big bag.

Member's Mark Ultra Lunch Paper Plates are very good for use for lunch and every other meal. We always bought Styrofoam Plates because as you know, paper plates usually let you down when they get loaded. Not so the Ultra Lunch Paper Plates. Not only do they carry their weight but they are great in the Microwave and won't melt down when they get overheated. A wonderful product.

I used these for a birthday party and we had two cakes, fruit salad, salad, and eight entree items, some with tomato sauce and dressing. These plates fit enough food for anyone, but they aren't too big. Nothing soaks through and you can even go back for seconds. My "go to" plates.

Strong, water-resistant coating - a good, general-purpose paper plat that does not get soggy while you're eating off of it. Just as good as the name-brand stuff at a lower price! (I really like the individually-wrapped "packs" within the bigger bag, too!)

All items shipped fairly quickly, so I was pleased with that! These Member Mark Paper Plates are of great quality and the perfect size for me and my husband, especially at lunch. The plates hold up well when your food is placed on them! Can put in microwave which is a plus!

Price is the biggest issue. Manufacturers cut corners in quality and/or quantity to offset prices which is also not an acceptable practice. I remember when fuel prices affected the prices, but that has eased somewhat. Prices increased when fuel prices came down? Why? Setting the current precedent in consumer buying is making it harder for the average customer.
