Love this dinnerware!  They are very elegant and sturdy.  They have some weight to them and don't seem really thin like a lot of dish sets.  Have washed them in the dishwasher and used them in the microwave without any issues. We use them for our everyday dishes.  I bought one set and really liked it and decided to buy one more.  Wish the dinner plates sold separately.  I would pick up a few extra.
