I've been using my set of Colorwave Graphite dishes for over 15 years. They still look fantastic. No fading/streaking/cracking or any other changes to the matte graphite or white. I've replaced a couple of pieces that were broken over the years (human error, no fault of the product) and they always match back beautifully, even with the oldest, most used pieces. This is probably one of the only things in my house I haven't tired of and I hope they continue to have pieces available for the future when I need a replacement.
