Love my flatware!  I bought two sets in the beige...which is a beautiful soft gold, perfect with the rest of my brushed gold kitchen hardware.  Light weight, but that's what I was hoping for...my old set was so heavy and always falling off the plates.  I have put them through the dishwasher several times and they come out just fine, no spots or scratches.  Very happy with my purchase.  Just wish there were some matching serving pieces.
