Five Star Reviews: | 61% There are no reviews yet | 65% Exact ones I needed! July 2, 2017 I had bought a set of these when we went to Ikea for the first time. Well, we only bought one set thinking since there are only two of us in the home we obviously had plenty, not! I was so thrilled to out that they were available on Amazon and saved me another 4 hour drive to Ikea. These are the exact same ones I had previously purchased. Thank you so much for saving me the drive!!! Good utensils for camping. June 2, 2017 I purchased these to use as camping eating utensils. They are very simple, easy to clean, and yes, the small fork is very small. However, I have small children so the small forks are actually perfect sized for my little ones. These pack up easily and don't take up much room. The handles are thin but comfortable to hold. The curves and design on these utensils are pleasant and good quality. Love March 29, 2017 The smaller fork and spoon are smaller than those typically found in sets in the United States as some reviewers have pointed out. They are not comically small though, my children and I actually prefer them. I love this set, they seem sturdy and came out of the dishwasher beautifully. You can get them for $7.99 per set currently at Ikea online, however for us for the two sets we purchased, they added a flat $10 shipping charge. This made it $1 more for us to receive the flatware faster with PRIME (no shipping added). The out of pocket expense was the same. A great choice! August 16, 2016 These don't feel cheap - they're a nice weight, and smooth + functional modern design. Deep, wide soup spoons, and cute smaller teaspoons. The knives are a bit thin, but have a point and sharp serration that cuts easily. The smaller forks and spoons can be used by an adult, but we use them most often for our preschoolers - they're a perfect step up from the bulbous plastic-handled toddler utensils. I usually have a hard time paying the higher prices for IKEA items on Amazon, but this utensil set is well worth it! Great value at an almost unbeatable price June 21, 2016 This is a great value for everyday flatware. Sturdy, but not expensive. I ordered two sets so that I don't have to run the dishwasher as often. The clean Nordic design is downright elegant. The pieces are light but hold up well. They work for both right and left-handed people. Another IKEA winner for the value conscious who like simplicity in design. They can be hand-washed or run through the dishwasher. I received this item free and/or at a discount in exchange for using it and providing my honest, unbiased feedback - which I give on *all* items I review, regardless of purchase price. All opinions are my own. I have not been compensated further. I *never* guarantee a positive review. very good! April 20, 2015 so worth of money!!!!!!no words to complain!cheap but simple design!simple without any decoration!that is what I want! |
Four Star Reviews: | 19% There are no reviews yet | 17% Nice set at a reasonable price May 22, 2017 Nice set at a reasonable price. Would have preferred that the tongs on the forks were larger, hard to tell from this picture but all forks more resemble salad forks instead of full sized forks. Great product April 19, 2017 Great product for a great price! Simple, sturdy, and affordable. I will say that the smaller forks and spoons are *very* small. I have little children, so they are perfect for my family, but if I didn't have kids, I might not be thrilled about the size (no matter how cute tiny flatware may be). The look nice and quell my OCD tendencies April 12, 2017 The smaller spoon and fork are a bit on the small side, but I don't really notice. The look nice and do the job while the OCD part of me can rest easy knowing that they are uniform and match.The small spoon holds up to cream in the carton, but be reasonable - it's not got going to cut through a hard block of the cheap stuff but holds up well enough. Would Buy More If I Had Friends!! May 18, 2016 Bought these because they were inexpensive and got decent reviews. They are perfect for what I need them for...but I'm not particular. Love the shape of the spoons!! The small forks & spoons are adorable, I use those most often. I've always felt that flatware is gigantic for my wee hands, but these are great! Love that the knives have a partially serrated blade! They can be used as replacements for steak knives...which I hardly ever use. Teeth make great knives and I can pull things apart with my fingers..... but I'm not much of a 'lady'. Would buy again...but I don't have guests and I don't like washing dishes....so one is great for me, for now. Good Set But Teaspoon & Salad Fork Are Tiny February 29, 2016 For the price, this is a good set of silverware. However, I would rather just have more regular-sized spoons and forks instead of these teensy ones (shown in the stock photo as the teaspoon and dessert/salad fork on the outermost edges). I feel like I have baby T-rex hands when I eat with these-just my own experience they are subjective for everyone :) !Other that than issue, it's really a good set-these are shiny, and my set was free of any dings. The non-tiny forks and spoons are a decent adult size. It comes in a cardboard box with an open face set in plastic, displaying all the silverware. The knife is serrated! Dishwasher safe. |
Three Star Reviews: | 8% There are no reviews yet | 10% Ok for the price June 12, 2017 For the price the set is pretty good. It was this or I was going to hit up the dollar store as I only needed a temp set between moves. The small spoon is very very small, not really useful. I have not had any problems with rust or stains. I like the tiny spoons May 29, 2017 I like the tiny spoons! However, I load the dishwasher with the eating surfaces above the basket (as, I believe, most people do) and the handles sometimes slip between the silverware basket holes. Decent set, and more durable than many diner sets ... April 15, 2017 Decent set, and more durable than many diner sets. My only real complaint is that the "large" spoon and fork are what I'd call "normal" sized, and the smaller fork and spoon are quite close to baby spoon sized. It's still a decent, cheep set of 4 Big spoons and forks are fine, the rest not so much December 21, 2016 Overall it's pretty much just OK...The big forks and big spoons are fine, but the small spoons and small forks are comically small. Like small to the point where adults wouldn't really have a use for them in day-to-day life.The butter knifes are also a little too serrated. You could almost use them to cut steak with, which is kind of unnecessary when you're just buttering bread or toast.I guess for the price they're ok, but you can probably do better elsewhere. i dont not like these pieces of flatware but they were different than ... July 30, 2016 i dont not like these pieces of flatware but they were different than i expected. the larger fork and spoon are over the average size and then smaller fork and spoon are below below the average size. i ended up using all the smaller flatware pieces as toddler utensils because they are really small and i happen to have 2 little girls. i do like the versatility of the butter/steak knives. You Get What You Pay For... September 18, 2015 I was so happy to find an inexpensive silverware set... Arrival was timely, the design is cute, and the set is as described. What I didn't think about when I decided I like the simplistic, smooth mirror type surface look, was handwashing these things: it doesn't matter how nice a brand of dish soap I use (Dawn with sheeting action), or which way I put them in the dishrack silverware holder (I usually put them mouth side up to ensure that part of the silverware doesn't get gooped up with any water that didn't drain out of the holder, but I tried it both ways), they always come out looking GREASY AND DIRTY. I use Scott's blue non-stick coating-safe scrubby sponges, and I have washed them every which way, but they leave EVERY mark and drop of water visible bc of the nice smooth mirror finish that I liked so much. GRRR. I HATE dirty looking dishes—especially if they're clean (i.e. dishes with stains in them, or this type of thing). I haven't put them in a dishwasher, so I don't know if the heat drying would make a difference, but I suspect they'd come out similar. This was noticeable right away, and bc I don't have a water softener, I either have to live with dirty looking silverware, dry them right away and use paper towels or dry gloves to put them away, or just buy another (different set). The price was nice—but sometimes you really do get what you pay for. |
Two Star Reviews: | 6% There are no reviews yet | 4% The knife is too flimsy August 8, 2017 I didn't try it, but it feels like you could bend the knife with 2 fingers. Tiny spoons and forks June 29, 2017 The knives and larger forks and spoons are fine, but if you're not a fan of tiny spoons and forks I suggest going with a different product. TINY tiny little little small small incredibly miiscule. June 14, 2017 These are hilarious, the tiniest little forks and spoons I have ever seen, would be good for a childs doll house. NO!!! Inferior quality. Lightweight similar to Fleamarket Find August 22, 2016 I read the reviews and thought Hurrah!!! Love the design but PLEASE!!!!! Like TIN!!!!! Spoons so shallow they are useless. The only cool thing is the knives are razor sharp. I would die of embarrassment using these with guests. Maybe to camp with!!!! Size matters November 6, 2015 Okay. Here is the truth.This silverware set is durable but, it is true that the small spoon and fork is truly made for babies, not adults. If you have a small mouth (lol, no boyfriend for you) this will be a great set for you and your big mouth friends. Good value but not real flatware May 18, 2015 Feels more like something you would get with your meal on an airplane than real flatware. A good value for the money (because it's very cheap) and definitely functional, but not anything like what you would buy at, say, Crate and Barrel or a department store. The pieces are very small and light. |
One Star Reviews: | 6% There are no reviews yet | 4% One Star March 26, 2017 Teaspoons were more like toddler spoons. Handles needed to be longer, you know, for adults Tiny baby forks and spoons. Ours didn't even come ... September 27, 2016 Tiny baby forks and spoons. Ours didn't even come with the right sizes. One fork and spoon on top was normal size, the rest were for babies. Returned back May 2, 2016 It arrived on time but really dissapointed when i found sharp edges in two spoons. Design flaw! January 5, 2016 The fork has a design flaw! The fork does not stab food while eating. The two inner spokes are made correctly but the two outer spokes are made fancy and keep the fork from stabbing food. |
