I haven’t used them yet, but I can tell you what I do know. They have a good weight to them (I’ve only owned Corelle plates for reference though) … they arrived packaged nicely and all in one piece … the apricot color is a little more orangey, but still fits the color scheme … I didn’t look at a ruler to actually see how the measurements would look, the pasta dishes seem pretty large, but that works well for my family … I ordered 2 sets and I’m pleased so far.
