I have been looking at this set of flatware for over a year.  Wayfair recently put it on sale and so I purchased place settings for 8.  I love this flatware option and what it does for my table. I have recieved many compliments when I use it.  However, since it needs to be handwashed, I only use it for entertaining. My only issue is that I can not find the butter knives or demitasse spoons that cordinate with this set.  If you purchase this item, you will not regret the splurge.
