Nicole 20pc. Stainless Steel Flatware Set-By RIVIERA

My wife and I were in need of new flatware since the cheap plastic stuff we had began breaking. After reading up on the differences in stainless steel options, I decided on the 18/10 was the only way to go. Not sure of exactly what I was getting into, I ordered this set. It met my requirement of 18/10 stainless steel, plus I liked the simple design. Had my wife chosen, a more complex design would have likely been ordered, but she now loves these for the smooth simplicity. These things feel extremely sturdy and have a good deal of weight. I'm now contemplating ordering another set or two (or maybe just get the bulk set, making 5 total for me - a couple would be for back-up).

True 18/10 flatware, as evidenced by the 18/10 stamp, and the fact that a magnet will not adhere to it. You cannot beat the price here at Overstock. I'd priced 18/10 elsewhere, and found no other prices that compared. Very durable, heavy-duty stuff. Nothing fancy, but perfect for casual, everyday use. The teaspoon is a bit large, and that makes it a bit cumbersome when using, but other than that, I'm happy with the purchase and would definitely recommend.

I chose this style mostly due to all the good reviews and also because it would be a simple enough style to incorporate with others that I already have. The other reviewers were right regarding the feel of these pieces. The weight is substantial and just feels good as you are using them. I have small hands and usually use salad forks and smaller spoons for everything I do and even though these are larger than my other pieces, I still find myself choosing these before the other style I have. My husband loves the long tines on the forks, they hold a lot. The set comes with a 20 year warranty which is kind of amazing for simple flatware and I don't know if I will ever need it but it is nice to know it is there. I am seriously thinking about getting another set and giving my older style to Goodwill.

Excellent quality - very heavy and strong. Thank you.

I've only had this set for about a month, but so far I'm very satisfied with them. I've had no problems, and they look really nice. The only change I would make is to make the spoons smaller. They are too big. I would definitely recommend them to a friend in my position though, someone needing less expensive silverwear that looks and works nicely.
