I've had the same ancient stainless flatware for 15 years and just upgraded. Overall the quality of 18/10 stainless has been fantastic. I love the spoons and forks and have just a slight complaint with the knives, which is the only reason it got 4 and not 5 stars. First, I wish the knives had slight serrations instead of being straight. I'm not talking about steak knives, just enough to cut a little. It only has a slight edge that doesn't do very well on much besides butter. Also, if the knives sit in water or there's a little lingering water at the bottom of the dishwasher silverware basket holder against the knife, the cutting edge can begin to rust. This may be something to do with the material, but my old junky set never did this, so I'm adding it as a complaint. I would definitely purchase again  

Pros: simple pattern, 18/10 at 18/0 price
Cons: not a great edge on knives that can rust.
