I wrote a review earlier about the scratching on the plates... I contacted Wayfair who responded very quickly - they reached out to the manufacturer who said the dinnerware is not "scratch-resistant" - since dinnerware is designed to be used with forks and knives which are likely to touch the plate at every single meal/use  - that is just poor quality - not acceptable Do not buy this set unless you are prepared to have scratches all over your plates or you are planning to use them decoratively only and never eat off them or eat with your fingers or rubber utensils.
