Very durable and kid/family friendly
 
Review Date: October 31, 2003
Reviewer: ,
This is in addition to my previous review, which I said I couldn't get enough of this. I still give it 5 stars. Fiestaware is so durable--I swear it is unbreakable. I hope I don't jinx myself. Anyway, my 13-month old got a hold of the placemat and pulled it down, along with the dinner plate. I thought my heart was going to break, but amazingly nothing happened to the fiestaware, not even a nick. And we have porcelain tile floors, where if something drops on it, it's in pieces. This just tells you how durable Fiestaware it, and the whole family can enjoy using it. It is very worth it.
Beautiful and durable....*NOTE ON HEATHER/PLUM COLORS BELOW!*

Reviewer: Nelly, Chicago, IL
I have owned several Fiestaware place settings since 2001...and I have NEVER even chipped a single piece! And I am tough on things - I have knocked the plates off of countertops and cracked them against the faucet REALLY hard...and they have survived in mint condition. This stuff is unbelievably tough. And the glazes are just gorgeous - you really can't go wrong with any color.

******NOTE ON COLORS:******

"Heather" is actually a LIGHTER purple color than "Plum," which is a very dark eggplant purple. Amazon reverses these two in the pictures for some items.
Worth the Extra $$$

I have an extensive Fiesta kitchen and thing that it is definitely worth the 'little extra'. It is nice enough to use for special occasion and durable enough to use everyday. I am really glad that I didn't spend a lot of time with the cheaper dinnerware before I discovered Fiesta. I love how all of my items coordinate with each other and the variety of colors available.

I bought this item because some of my stuff was purchased from the clearance rack at a local department store and I needed a few pieces to complete the set. I also liked the idea of having an extra plate on hand for company or as a replacement if one was accidentally broken.

You can't go wrong with Fiestaware. This stuff can take daily abuse, but is still pretty enough that your parents will be impressed that you dishes match when they come to visit/inspect your place.

Very nice, durable and attractive

Reviewer: Mary P. Sheffield,
I like this place setting color, but I have taken the advice of others and I use coffee filters between pieces for storage. It is a great place setting.
A nice sturdy place setting for a busy family
 
Review Date: August 3, 2007
Reviewer: Pool Enthusiast, I am on the front porch reading The New York Times.
My order arrived yesterday, in a timely manner and without incident. The place settings were in perfect condition upon opening the boxes. So far, I have used them twice and hand washed them, since I have not run the dishwasher yet.

Since purple is our favorite color, we are happy with the way that these look. They are plain for some folks and fancy for others. I suppose it depends on your past experience and taste. We are happy with them. It is a wonderful sturdy place setting. There are two pieces that I feel the need to comment on.

First of all, the bowl is larger than it appears. I tried it out, just to see how much it can hold. It easily held a whole standard can of peaches, liquid included. To me that is a huge bowl for a single person. That is more like a small serving bowl. We are used to smaller individual bowls.

Second, I want to let you know about the cup that is included in the place setting. I did not outright measure it. It is, however, about half of the size of a standard sized mug, but slightly larger than a tea cup. Since it has the design of a tea cup, it softens the appearance of the set somewhat. It is a bit more dainty in appearance than a traditional coffee mug. Therefore, it makes the set appear a bit more fancy.
