I was on the hunt for a heavy, sturdy set of silverware when I found these. They fit the bill exactly - nothing delicate about them. Scoop hard ice cream for days, stab hard foods with the fork tines. Not a bend to be seen. I keep a set for 12 so I will have to buy an extra deep silverware drawer organizer because these are too thick to stack in our current one. And your hands must be freshly clean and dry when unloading from the dishwasher or you will leave prints and smears on the large, flat, shiny handle surfaces.

These are strong and feels good to hold. They are pretty to use. Im bad about just leaving dishes in the sink so they sit in water and cleaners and no change in color or stains. Love them. Just expensive for me to keep buying.

Very sturdy, nice to hold & look

let me start by saying i think the prices of flatware are outrageous, but i was tired of buying cheap flatware: they never felt good in my hands or mouth which made eating unpleasant, and they're hard to keep clean. because they're cheap and because they weren't very durable, i tended to lose pieces and end up needing to buy new sets, so i decided to bite the bullet and try an "i'm a real adult" set of flatware. this set is very pleasing and sensory friendly. the utensils feel heavy and cool in the hand, the edges of the fork tines and spoon are very smooth in the mouth. the edges of the handles are also pleasantly smooth. the pieces are very sturdy, and very easy to clean. if you have sensory differences, consider breaking free of the cheap flatware cycle and splurging on this set.
