I thought they would be a little fancier.  That being said I love that they are durable, great colour (I got red and grey) and can withstand my teenager loading and unloading them in the dishwasher. To update I wound up returning these as they didn't hold up as well as I had hoped. The colour faded in spots and the fact that you couldn't use them in the microwave turned out to be a big problem. The return policy and system they have in place is ridiculously easy. This is definitely my favorite place to shop!
