5.0 out of 5 stars Big Family Gathering
We celebrate Thanksgiving at our house these days and I needed a great value, lots of product and convenience. This was the perfect purchase it provided all three. The design is simply and classic and I am sure they will hold up under the wear and tear of my family for years to come.

2.0 out of 5 stars 18/0 Stainless Steel is low quality
The numbers 18/0, 18/8 and 8/10 give the percentage of content of chromium and nickel in the item. Stainless steel, must contain at least 11 % chromium, the above refer to 18% chromium. Stainless steel used in cookware is normally 18% chromium and 8% to 10% nickel.

2.0 out of 5 stars 18/0 Stainless Steel is low quality, October 29, 2004
This review is from: Oneida Oakleigh 64-Piece Flatware Set, Service for 12 (Kitchen)
The numbers 18/0, 18/8 and 8/10 give the percentage of content of chromium and nickel in the item. Stainless steel, must contain at least 11 % chromium, the above refer to 18% chromium. Stainless steel used in cookware is normally 18% chromium and 8% to 10% nickel.

The chromium provides rust and corrosion resistance and durability. Nickel provides some additional rust resistance, hardness, and high polishing characteristics.

Low end stainless steel cookware, mixing bowls, stockpots and accessories are usually 18/0 which are usually not highly polished, and could be subject to some rust spotting.

This is low-end flatware and is not even listed anywhere on Oneida's website!

Don't skimp on quality of your flatware. Features you could look for in decent flatware include: thick heat diffusing bottoms, 18/10 grades and a lifetime warranty.

2.0 out of 5 stars It is labeled as Oneidacraft and not the same quality...., December 15, 2004
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Oneida Oakleigh 64-Piece Flatware Set, Service for 12 (Kitchen)
I purchased these since we often have guests over and I wanted a large set of silverware. Unfortunately it is not nearly the same weight or strength as our other Oneida silverware. It is actually labeled as Oneidacraft and does not even have the smoothness of our other silverware. The edges are not as rounded and do not have the strength needed for everyday use. I gave them two stars since they will work and they do have a lot of pieces. Please note that I did return the two sets and bought the regular Oneida instead.

1.0 out of 5 stars Low end Oneida, discontinued yr ago - cheap, January 10, 2005
This review is from: Oneida Oakleigh 64-Piece Flatware Set, Service for 12 (Kitchen)
This product was discontinued yr ago, Oneida list price that time was $58.00 as confirmed by Oneida customer service rep (call 1-315-361-3000 and ask for price on item # B416064b). This is low-end (lowest it can go) line of Oneida product imputed from Mexico; similar product would be worth not more then $15 in the local stores.

This review is from: Oneida Oakleigh 64-Piece Flatware Set, Service for 12 (Kitchen)
It was shocking to see the silverware how bad it can be...AMAZON should not do this. This is not ONIEDA its Oniedacraft....The stuff is light weight and smaller then you would like it to be. The point it don't waste your money.

1.0 out of 5 stars Too flimsy... Avoid if you want hefty dinnerware., January 6, 2005
By 
Scott (USA, South) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Oneida Oakleigh 64-Piece Flatware Set, Service for 12 (Kitchen)
I ordered this set to replace my current hodge-podge of everyday silverware. I was very disappointed in the quality of this set. I could bend the spoon with one hand. The edges are rough, and the set looks like it was stamped out of flat metal. I guess $30 will only go so far with tableware. Look elswhere unless these details are acceptable to you.

This review is from: Oneida Oakleigh 64-Piece Flatware Set, Service for 12 (Kitchen)
There's no question that this flatware set is absolutely bad. The quality and finishing is so bad. Don't even think of buying this. I could not select less than 1 star, else I would given it a lesser rating.

1.0 out of 5 stars Very cheap looking, bad quality silverware, January 28, 2008
This review is from: Oneida Oakleigh 64-Piece Flatware Set, Service for 12 (Kitchen)
I ordered this product because i liked the intricate design on the stem of the spoon as shown in the picture. When it arrived, i was shocked to see the quality of the product. I can easily bend the spoon/fork with one hand. It is very dull looking (can't even call it silver-ware). The edges of spoons were not smooth. You can easily hurt your lips while eating. The size of spoons, forks, knives were not up to standard. Overall i was extremely disappointed with the product and would not suggest it to anyone.
