Not sure if I just had a bad batch, but these plates are not finished well. The laquer/paint seems to have pooled and this is on almost every single plate (I ordered 2 sets) a lot of the plates also seem to be warped. I have been using them for months anyway, they serve the purpose and for that reason I don't need to replace them. I just wouldn't get these again or recomend. Plates are easy to find anywhere and easy to find better quality than this
