I love the color and feel of this set. I got the dark navy which turned out to be the perfect compliment to my other pieces. They're very versatile as well. Great for patio parties and more formal get togethers just adding your nice table linens. The handles are smooth and rounded just enough for an easy grip. What I was very disappointed in was the prong size of the forks! The salad fork literally looks like a toddlers utensil! The dinner fork, of course, is the perfect size for a salad fork. I really do like the set a lot! I have been searching for just the right color, texture etc for almost a year. I really do wish I got a dinner fork that was just a little more substantial.
