I have never given a review of less than 5 stars and am overal happy with the dishes. They are somewhat delicate, but I purchased them for springtime with the intention of using them only on special occasions,  so for that I think they will be perfect.  I only gave 3 stars because out of the 3 boxes of dishes I ordered (12pc setting), different dishes were broken in each box.  The packing was very poor.  Each individual 4pc setting was packed inside of a box more than 2 times its size with very minimal cardboard shavings for protection.  I order from wayfair often and am generally very happy with their products,  but this is the 3rd time my items have come broken or damaged due to packing.
