Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Wallace Bentley 90-Piece Flatware Set, Service for 12
Customer Review: Functional, good price, and wow...90-pieces!
Summary: 4 Stars
I purchased this at a GB price. After I made the purchase I read the comments from others and began having buyer regret and considered canceling the order before it shipped.....I'm glad that I didn't. The comments revolved around the 18/0 rating and that this type of stainless steel is low quality (no nickel content) and would bend easily. I was therefore expecting to receive a very cheap cheesy looking set that I'd probably return.
I was looking for everyday flatware that I wasn't going to loose any sleep over if a piece or two disappeared (or half the teaspoons which typically occurs in my house). I have a quality Reed & Barton set that I selected with my wedding china therefore I was strictly in the market for everyday flatware that could take some wear and tear.
First the dinner knives and steak knives have a very nice base and weight. These are the nicest pieces in the set. The base for the remaining pieces are much thinner and would be what you'd expect for a less costly flatware set. I do not however believe that they'll bend easily; but I'm sure that if you purposely tried to, you'd be successful. The soup spoons and dinner forks, in my opinion, are a bit larger than what you'd normally expect but are still an acceptable size. I really liked the fact that 12 extra teaspoons were included since mine are always disappearing. I also rarely have seen a set that includes a pie server as part of the serving pieces so that was an added bonus.
Overall, I wasn't disappointed at all with this set or the GB price of $50. It washes up great in the dishwasher, was a basic design that looks good, and was just what I was looking for. I was finally able to retire my old flatware collection which was a merged collection of 2-sets due to all the lost pieces.
