Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Mikasa French Countryside 5-Piece Stainless-Steel Flatware Place Setting, Service for 1
Customer Review: Great set of flatware at a great price!
Summary: 4 Stars
This set of Mikasa flatware is really terrific for a number of reasons:
1) It looks great. The pictures shown here on Amazon don't do justice. The flatware has a great luster and is simple, but elegant looking.
2) The pieces feel solid. Each of the flatware pieces (especially the knife) has a solid, durable feel to it. Part of this is because the pieces are a bit oversized.
3) The price! At $20 a set, this is really a steal.
OK. Those are the good points... but there are a couple of tradeoffs. Here are a few negative points (although they are relatively minor):
1) The pieces are 18/8 steel. This is lower quality steel than 18/10. Although the pieces are made in Korea (which has better steel production than China), the steel itself is not "premium" quality.
2) All the pieces have "Mikasa" (as well as "Made in Korea" and "18/8") PRINTED on the metal, rather than stamped. Because it's printed (on the underside of the pieces except for the knife), it detracts from the flatware's otherwise elegant look. I haven't owned my set long enough, but I'm guessing that the print will eventually wear off (hopefully).
3) The spoon is really big. Although all the pieces are a bit oversized, you will notice right away how big the spoon is.
All in all, this is a terrific flatware set for $20. Although there are some minor issues, those issues are really minor (no more than 1 star's worth). If you're looking for a casual flatware set, I strongly recommend considering this one. You won't be disappointed.

Description of Mikasa French Countryside 5-Piece Stainless-Steel Flatware Place Setting, Service for 1
The Baroque shaped handle is designed for timeless French Country elegance. This placesetting includes includes a dinner fork, salad fork, knife, teaspoon and tablespoon. This beautiful pattern is perfect for both entertaining and everyday use. Other pieces are sold separately.Stainless-steel flatware is for use every day of the week, but there's no reason for it to look or feel drab and ordinary. Mikasa's French Countryside flatware has a refined look and a solid weight that make dining a greater pleasure. These are sturdy utensils, crafted out of single pieces of steel. They are dishwasher-safe and, like all stainless steel, will never need polishing. The set contains a 9-13/16-inch dinner knife (4-1/2 ounces), a 7-3/4-inch dinner fork (2 ounces), a 6-7/8-inch salad fork (1.4 ounces), a 6-inch dinner spoon (1.4 ounces), and a 7-3/4-inch soupspoon (2.6 ounces). The pieces are simply designed, with a small rounded band in the center of the stem. Their elegance is understated but unmistakable. Founded in 1948, Mikasa--an American company headquartered in New Jersey--is a leading designer, developer, and marketer of quality tabletop products. --Christopher Monte Smith
