Love the set - the items and style are perfect for family and holiday dinners - however there were many defective pieces in the 40-piece set (as if no Quality Check was done). I have been working with Joss & Main to get the issue solved. Both Joss & Main and this manufacturer have replied in a timely manner and I will be sent replacements. This set - the looks and the accessory items - are the best ones I have found online and I am eager to have a set of perfect dishes and accessories to give as a gift.
