Many of the handles on silverware are black or spotted. Returning. Was really looking forward to this. Really sad that Oneida would put this out there something out like this.

I had an Oneida set of silverqare.for 20 years. It never rusted, the only reason I replaced with this set is it was getting quite noticably scratched and we were missing some pieces. Other than that it withstood three boys being raised and two moves. I've had this set for less than a month and it comes out of the dishwasher rusty I have to polish it consistently. Super disappointed. I've added an example of what it looks like out of a clean dishwasher. Same dishwasher and same detergent I use with my old set. The spoon shows the best I could get it cleaned up after looking like the knife did. I have to use barkeeper's friend all the time now :( I wasn't looking for a part-time job when I bought my silverware. This is definitely not the Oneida used to be.

I needed to replace daily flatware that was beginning to bend and show its age. These are wonderful. They’re a good heavy weight. They do not feel flimsy at all like a fork tone could bend.

Just the sets I was looking for

Love, love, love this set of flatware. I can't believe the price of this 12-piece setting that also includes steak knives. They are perfect for a fancy or casual setting. The pieces are a nice weight, the size of each piece is great, steak knives are sharp and the serving pieces are large. The are packaged well with each piece being individually wrapped in tissue paper along with heavy duty boxes. One note...they don't come with teaspoons, but not a big deal since the other spoons are long enough to use to stir sweetener if needed or you can order the Modern Pillar Moda Fine Flatware Iced Teaspoons which are a match which is what I plan to do.
