cute and practical this little set is terrific – just the right size for snacks, and all items are both cute and yet sturdy. A must-buy if you like chic cutlery. Sanibel Surf Accessory Set We were very happy with the set. It was given as a gift at a shower and the bride was very happy to receive it. She received two sets that day. We also purchased the full flatware set for her wedding gift so she was very happy with the result. Click to Editorial Reviews

Nice set, good value We have been using it for a few months now & have had no problems washing it in the dishwasher. The design is very attractive, & the pieces have a solid feel — not super heavy, but not flimsy like some inexpensive flatware. The size of the salad forks seems tinier than usual, but overall a great value for the price. Reviews, reviews, reviews I am a person who reads reviews before I buy anything and I wont write a 5 star review unless I truly believe in the product. I bought this set about seven months ago and its great!!! I use them every day I have two sons ages six and four and this set is just what I was looking for they are very durable they have seen there fair share of abuse and they still look great just like the day I pulled them out of the box! They are heavy the will not bend with normal use and they truly are dishwasher friendly! Like I said I use these everyday and put them in the dishwasher everyday they will not rust! So if you are looking ...

Wow This set is so nice. I almost don’t believe I only paid $6! This was a major steal. It’s 18/10 stainless steel as apposed to the cheapo 18/0. I haven’t washed them in the dishwasher, but I usually hand wash my silverware. The polish is so nice too. I am one happy camper. Glad I waited for the price to drop. Click to Editorial Reviews

These are not 18/10 Stainless I had received 2 sets of this silverware from Bed Bath and Beyond… Sept. 2006. I ordered this set to replace some missing pieces. NOT a match I read the product description 18/0 and thought it was a typo because further down on the page in the product description it says, " Crafted of durable 18/10 stainless steel and designed to be used on a daily basis" I’d send them back, they are cheap compared to what I had, but my hubby already had thrown them in the dishwasher and we were already using them before I really had a chance to check them out. I could pick them out just by weight alone… I like them a lot! I’m pretty picky about my silverware. To me, a lot of them have an odd metallic taste to them. These do not. Besides that, they’re attractive, comfortable to use, nestle well, and I love my company to see how they shine Loved it so much, I bought more We got the 45 piece set for our wedding a few years ago and I ordered this 20-piece set t...

Ginkgo International Sanibel Surf 4-Piece Stainless Steel Hostess Serving Set

Attractive and sturdy For my last birthday, my husband bought me new Oneida flatware from Target in this design: Stanhope 20-pc. Flatware Set . Unfortunately, Target did not not have the hostess set available, and because the Stanhope pattern has actually been discontinued, we couldn’t find the completer pieces anywhere. So, we decided to look for a pattern that would be complimentary rather than match exactly. That brought us to this Gingko Sanibel Surf design. We loved the look of the little swirls on the ends of each piece; they are meant to be shells, but we thought they would be a fun match for the spirals on our Stanhope flatware, so we ordered this set. The four pieces included regular and slotted spoons, a serving fork, and a medium-sized ladle (we would have preferred a sugar spoon, but we took what we could get!). One of the first things that we noticed about these pieces is that they were BIG; they… False advertising – really 18/0. I just received these last night. I speci...

simple pattern goes well with existing flatware This serving set is good quality, has nice weight, large spoon size, and the simple pattern does not compete with whatever other patterns you have on the table. Click to Editorial Reviews

Ginkgo International Varberg 20-Piece Stainless Steel Flatware Set, Service for 4

Image
Sleek, modern and elegant stemware The first thing that impressed me about the Varberg stemware is the weight – it’s solid and heavy in the hand. You’ll also notice that the bowls on the spoons are a squared-off oval shape and the fork tines are longer and sleeker than usual. As a result, these pieces have a nice mouth-feel. These two unique design elements (combined with the high-polish finish) make this stemware look elegant, very classy and very expensive. They are appropriate for everyday use as well as when you want to set an elegant table. Care: these are dishwasher safe but, as with all stainless, do not use a citrus dishwasher detergent or combine with silver or aluminum items. Also, you may see some scratches depending on your normal use (we tend to cut our meat by using a knife against the back of fork and have begun to see small scratches there from the knife blade). The Ginkgo website has a lot of useful tips on caring for stainless stemware. Overall, I could not be happie...

Durable and Luxurious Mmmm, I love digging into my food with this 5-piece place setting. The large knife easily cuts into my food which is easily pierced by my fork and sent on its way to my mouth. Just try to bend these utensils. It won’t happen. It’s quality is obvious; you won’t ever want to go back to the set that your bought at the dollar store down the road. Click to Editorial Reviews

reliable set, matches existing utensils This set matches items that we purchased singly a few years back in our college days at our old local ACE hardware, so now we have a complete set! Great set, and a good price here on Amazon. Got the “hostess” set as well, so everything matches. No problems with the quality. We’ve had the older ones for about six years now and have never had a problem with throwing them in the dishwasher, etc. Click to Editorial Reviews

Beautiful but it rusts I absolutely love this pattern. It’s mirrored finish is just beautiful, and I’ve not been able to find anything else like it. The problem is, though, that it rusts. I’ve had 18/10 flatware before, and have never had this rust problem. The knives seem to rust on the actual smooth part as well as the hammered handle, and the others will get it on the handles. I’m so bummed because I can’t find another pattern like it anywhere. So I have to give it only 1 star because of the rust. Still Beautiful Tableware a Year Later… I received 8 place settings as a Christmas gift from my husband in 2006. This pattern is so beautiful I immediately went online to Amazon to order the steak knives, 2 hostess sets, the accessory set and an additional 4 place settings to round it out to 12. The design is a one of kind and I love the balance. They just feel good in your hand. I have never experienced any of the rust problems reported buy a couple of others reviewers. They will scratch...
