This is my first set in a long, long, time. I am really happy with the color, and how they go with everything! The plates are very big, so even when the is a mound of food on the plate, there is still room for more. I saw this same set going for $220, but got them here for less then $80!!!!!!!!!!!! The colors are rich and warm, and transitions easily from casual dinning to more intimate dinning. Great set, highly recommended if this is your first set, or, are just wanting a change ~_~

After 7 years of the same dishes we decided it was time to invest in something new. We are a young, casual couple and do not even own a formal dining table so grandmas China was not an option. We eat an eclectic variety of foods, so its important that out plates can accommodate mounds of spaghetti and meatballs, Sushi, Thai, Ribeye and NY strips etc. Also these foods cant clash with the plates ad make the food unattractive. This is a great neural set that so far has gone well will everything. What is hard to see from the photos is the details between the dark brown and beige, its very nice, unique and appears hand done (not sure that it is, but looks that way). Also the plates have a great lip on them. This keeps your food on the plate and assists in getting some of the more slippery food on your fork. The dinner plates are large, thick and feel very sturdy in the hand. They have a great weight and feel to them, far better then the cheap dinnerware I usually buy. The coffee mugs are nice and deep, unlike ones that I have gotten in the past, these can actually be used for coffee, tea or hot chocolate. The bowls are great as well, a very nice size, not to big not to small. Overall we are very satisfied with everything. One thing that I will point out is each piece had a SKU sticker with the worlds "Made in China" on the back. I found it very hard, if not down right impossible to remove these as they would tear while trying to peel them. I decided to leave on the remaining stickers and run the set through the dishwasher to loosen them up. That helped a little but still left much of it on. Eventually they peeled off on their own but I found a bunch clogging the Dishwashers drain. WHen I removed them they were still very very sticky, even thought wet! Anyhow, just and FYI. If these are the colors you like, get the plates, they are great. I didn't give it an overall of 5 stars because I believe no product is perfect, nothing particularly against the plates.

These are great seem very durable so far and look very nice. My husband loves the deep bowls, the only part that I am not a big fan of is how they fit in my dishwasher because of how deep they are, but still worth buying them.

These are very well constructed plates. After unpacking them I was amazed by their heft and sturdiness. That said, one of the packages of large dinner plates was cracked upon arrival (I purchased 2 sets). I contacted Overstock and they quickly had a new set of dinner plates shipped within 48 hours. They are beautiful pieces - all in the same design but with slightly different tones/rimmings which gives them a very nice hand made feel/appearance. The only draw back is that while the edge of the dinner plates is very nice, they can sometimes take up additional space in the dish washer. Plates are also true to color. Happy shopping!

Fantastic dinnerware set. Really pleased with Overstock..and all of my purchases!

Love the look and feel of the dishes. A bit large but for the money an excellent value.

We bought these to eventually replace our 10 year old set. So far our experience with them are positive. They have some good weight and are nice looking. Time will tell on how well they hold up to our families use.

I ordered 2 sets of this stoneware which arrived very expeditiously. I really like the way the dinner plates have a lip around them to help keep your food intact. The only thing I would change is the addition of some smaller salad bowls. The included bowls are really too large for cereal and a small salad. They are nice, but it would also be nice to have some smaller ones included. I did find 2 small chips in my sets - one in a dinner plate and the other in the smaller plate. I called Overstock.com immediately and they were extremely helpful and agreed to send me the replacement plates right away. The person I talked to sent me emails to keep me up to date on exactly if they were able to find the replacements and then when they would be sending them to me. I really love my new dishes and my experience with Overstock.com was 5 stars!

This dish have a nice weight and are large enough for a nice bowl of cereal in the morning and a perfect cup of coffee without a silly s saucer. Really like them as they also do well in the dish washer and seem to be chip resistant.

i really like the way these look. The color is very close to the picture- a very dark brown (almost black) and a rich khaki/taupe color. I found 1 or 2 pieces out of the 3 sets i bought with very slight imperfections. i cant comment on durability b/c i've only had them for 3 weeks but i am very happy with them so far.
