Very pleased with all aspects,

This review is from: J.A. Henckels Bellasera 45-Piece Flatware Set, Service for 8 (Kitchen)
I purchased two 45 piece sets of this flatware and am so pleased with it.
I love the design of the handles. They feel great in the hand and fit together well in the drawer. Storing service for 16 in my standard-sized silverware drawer is no problem because the pieces "spoon" so well together. There are no sharp edges on the handles, despite their square-cornered appearance. I am perfectly comfortable having my kids use the flatware. The knives feel heavy for their size, which I like, and they cut through meat much better than standard place setting knives. I don't anticipate having to use our steak knives for anything. I was pleasantly surprised by this, but I guess I shouldn't have been since the flatware was manufactured by a knife company. The knives sit on their edge, which takes some getting used to, but makes a really unusual and interesting place setting. I have run the flatware through both handwashing and the dishwasher several times now and see no evidence of rusting or spotting. I specifically wanted 18/10 stainless for this reason. Both my handwashing and automatic diswashing detergents are lemon scented, but there have been no problems. The directions that come with the flatware contain really helpful suggestions - items you don't want to soak your flatware with, etc. The five serving pieces that come with the set are: Cold meat fork, serving spoon, slotted serving spoon, butter knife and sugar shell. The first three are of a good size that we'll use every day. The cold meat fork's tines flare out slightly, which is very attractive.

Strong and lovely flatware,
By CJBS (Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: J.A. Henckels Bellasera 45-Piece Flatware Set, Service for 8 (Kitchen)
We purchased 16 placesettings of Bellasera when we married 2 years ago. Today's Amazon price is a bargain. I might buy another set! It has held up well to hand washing and to the dishwashing machine. Maintains its beautiful luster. No rusting or pitting. We wanted something different, and the knife is what sold us on this pattern. Shoppers considering Henckels products should be aware Bellasera comes from the "twins" line--their premium products. If you see Henckels products with a logo of a single "person" (instead of twins), that means the products come from their "value" line.

Flatware,

This review is from: J.A. Henckels Bellasera 45-Piece Flatware Set, Service for 8 (Kitchen)
The flatware looked very attractive online and in the box. It was also great during the first few uses, now it's iffy. Considering that it was supposed to be stainless with 18/10 steel to keep it looking great and allow it maintain the finish through the dishwasher, it's a disappointment to me. After a month or so of use and washing it started to show signs of rust and less than mirror finish.
I can buff it a little as it comes out of the dishwasher but since I never had to do that with my old, cheap flatware I resent new more expensive flatware that doesn't live up to the promise. It also would have been nice if it came with more teaspoons, or had loose additions available. On the positive side I like the feel and heft of the flatware, the style and appearance (from a distance) on the table.
