We painted our kitchen and I was looking for some kitchen decor to go with the colors.I found the Gold Dust - Sienna set on sale at Kohls for a great price and decided to purchase a few pieces for my cabinet tops and shelves.Then I went online and found great deals on the matching sets through Amazon and a few other places.
Because I was able to get such great deals, I decided to buy enough to replace my 11-year old Pfaltzgraff dinnerware set while I was at it.I have received a ton of compliments on the set - and I love it because I use the accent decor pieces from the tops of my cabinets when I have dinner parties or a group of people over, so they're practical too!
Positives:
*Pretty sturdy - we've broken a bowl from dropping them on the floor (they're not Corelle Ware, after all), but they seem to hold up better than my Pfaltzgraff against a 6- and 9-year old emptying the dishwasher and jamming them in the cupboard
*Attractive, contemporary design
*Good price
*Large variety of accent pieces to the dinnerware set
Negatives
*The dishes seem to scratch pretty easily from daily use.It's not like they become unsightly or unusable, they simply show wear and just don't have the shine they did when I bought them 6 months ago.
*The dinner plates, bowls and saucers are large and take up a lot of cupboard space
*The pieces are fairly heavy - my 6-year-old has a hard time lifting more than 2 bowls or plates at a time when he is helping to clear out the dishwasher.
*The sound made when cutting food with a steak knife on these dishes is like fingernails on a chalkboard.It sends shivers down my spine every time!
Again, overall, this is a good set for the money.I have twice as much dinnerware at almost half the cost of our Pfaltzgraff (purchased 11 years ago!).It will, however, be much easier to pack these away and replace them when we repaint our kitchen again some day than it was my Pfaltzgraff for just that very reason.
