I bought silver plated flatware last year from a high end retailer, put it in the pacific cloth-lined silver drawer in my New England home and headed to Florida for 8 months.  When I came back, each piece was black and unsalvageable.  The Wallace stainless flatware arrived today and I am delighted with it.  It is very close in resemblance (although not in weight) to Grand Baroque and will never need polishing.    

Pros: Unbeatable price for a service for 12.  
Cons: None
