If you're into this color Le Creuset, these are exactly as advertised. I bought them as a Christmas present for someone who specifically wanted this brand/color. I'm a Fiestaware collector but have several Le Creuset cooking pans that are my favorite. When comparing the durability and quality of my Fiestaware cream/sugar to these, I have to say that Le Creuset has a much stronger, denser, and sturdier feeling. Sometimes a creamer spout looks pretty but will not pour very well, but this is designed so well that there are no drips. NOTE: the sugar bowl does not have the little cut out for a sugar spoon.
