Amazon Basics Kitchen Dinnerware Set, Microwave and Dishwasher Safe, Plates, Bowls, Service for 6, 18-Piece, White

I was way overdue for some new dishes. All of my dishes were old and in bad shape and I broke most of my sets. I finally got around to purchasing more but hated the thought of paying so much for them, considering I needed so many. I found this set and decided to get it. I didn't need any mugs and this set includes six of each item so I thought it would be a good base set that I could slowly build upon. It would allow me to immediately have enough new dishes for a low price but then I can add to my collection on the more expensive dishes a bit at a time.This set is a great deal. The price is very low compared to others and the quality is excellent. The dishes are not light and thin; they are heavy (but not too much) and not fragile. Utensils do not scratch them. They also hold up perfectly in the dishwasher and microwave.The bowls are deep and perfect for soups and cereals. The dinner plates are a good size. The dessert plates are a bit small but are good for dessert. What I mean by that is that they aren't the type of plate you can use for a small meal. They're more for eating a sandwich on or a slice of cake (hence the title "dessert plate"). The rim of the plates takes up quite a bit of space so the actually eating surface isn't as big as it sounds by calling it a 10.5-inch plate. However, you can still pile food onto the edges to make up for it. It hardly makes a difference because the edges aren't much higher than the surface of the plate.The only flaw in these plates is that they don't stack evenly. They don't look uneven to the eye at all, but you can notice when you stack them. If you want them on display (in a glass-doored cabinet, for instance), they won't look very pretty. However, if you store them in a plate rack or in a solid door cabinet, they are just fine.These are great if you want a basic set of inexpensive dishes. They're a great starter set for building upon or for someone just starting out in a new house, dorm, or apartment.

These are very nice! They seem sturdy and look like elegant fine China plates.

Nice, clean set. Classic, go with everything look.

A nice set for the money

This is my second time purchasing this product, as we are adding more to our existing set. These dishes are heavy and well made. They wash easily and do not stain or scratch. They are both microwave and dishwasher safe which makes life much easier. Most people are shocked to find out they are from Amazon, as they look much more expensive than they are.

Just got them, but seem sturdy glass. Perfect for 1st apartments. Great value. Packed well. Nothing broken

I love love these plates. I’ve been researching basic white plates for the last few months. I saw mixed reviews on Mikasa, which is much more expensive and we recently stayed at a rental that had this set, and I fell in love with it. Such great quality, so simple and you can’t beat the price! Highly recommend!!! I just wish I could buy more bowls separately without needing the whole set

God value. They feel substantial, not cheap.
