1.0 out of 5 stars Not the original quality, October 24, 2008

This review is from: Dansk Torun 5-Piece Place Setting, Service for 1 (Kitchen)

I recently ordered four additional place settings as well as a few replacement forks/spoons of Dansk Torun. I have an original set from the mid 1980's. The new pieces were much lighter in weight, the spoons had different bowl shapes (both soup and teaspoon) and stamps on the back of each piece (including the 'made in China') were obnoxiously large and made the silverware ugly. I purchased these with a 'buy three get one free offe'r. Had I been aware of the poor quality of this recent edition of Dansk silverware I would not have purchased it new. I would have purchased used place settings from a replacement source.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not nearly as good, March 20, 2009

We got a set of Dansk Torun in 1999; it was a beautiful and functional set We wanted to get some additional sets, so we got this.

These are amazingly inferior. Some of it is just quality: the spoons are shallower and have sharp edges. That's just cheaper forging. To add insult to inury, they also have a new shape which I don't like as well. The knife is similar to the original, but not as elegant.

If I'd known Dansk was going to do this I don't think I would have bought from them 10 years ago. I certainly can't recommend this set now.

At $29.99 per place setting, Amazon is offering this pattern at outlet prices for Torun. I have owned this silverware for over 10 years, and it looks as good today as when I purchased it. The stainless is of the highest grade, 18/10, and this ensures that it will tolerate the dishwasher very well. Instructions that came with mine said to polish it once a year, but I have not found this necessary. The stainless is of a quality that it doesn't show scratches either. The design is timeless; it will be as contemporary 25 years from now as today. It is also versatile enough to use for every day and formal occasions. The only thing that takes getting used to is the knife; the curved handle allows for positioning the knife with the blade down. Also be aware that complementary and serving pieces are going to be expensive and hard to find. These can be located on Ebay or in any remaining outlet stores that Dansk may have.
