Bought 40 to redo my kitchen, and I have gotten multitudes of compliments since. Completely updated the look in my kitchen. They are heavy duty and seem like they will last a long time. Not sure how clean they would stay (and how easy to clean) with little children (we don't have any kids in the house, so it is not an issue for us). I think someone else summed it up nicely, saying that it is jewelry for your kitchen!

Pros: Durable, and absolutely beautiful.
Cons: Might not be easy to clean dirt from them
