Product Description

Amazon.com Review

Oneida's contemporary Satin Sand Dune pattern is distinguished by gracefully tapered handles that round out into a teardrop shape with a dimpled, satin-finished center and raised mirror-polished sides. Handsome enough for special occasions yet practical for daily dining, this 18/8 stainless-steel flatware has a brushed colonial finish and is corrosion-resistant and dishwasher-safe. A mirror finish on the spoon bowls, fork tines, and knife blades make these utensils feel smooth in the mouth. This 24-piece set offers a full service for four. Each five-piece place setting consists of a dinner fork, a salad fork, a spoon, a knife, and a teaspoon. The set also includes four extra teaspoons. Oneida provides a 25-year warranty on this stainless flatware. --Cristina Vaamonde

What's in the Box

4.0 out of 5 stars High quality for a reasonable price, July 13, 2005

I now own 12 full place settings in this pattern, including a serving set because of my appreciation for the quality of the utensils. They clean up nicely in the dishwasher and show no signs of wear, although my original set was purchased three years ago. Each utensil is properly weighted, which is something a lot of newer, stylish designs have a problem overcoming. The reason I did not give this set a full five stars is because there are occasional tarnish spots on the knives after being run through the dishwasher. Although it is a detractor, the spots are easily cleaned off. I firmly believe you can't buy a better quality set for the money.

4.0 out of 5 stars Made in USA or made in Vietnam, February 28, 2007

If you look at the reviews for the 53 piece Satin Sand Dune set of this same pattern you will see that I rated that set with 5 stars. The reason I have to deduct one star from the rating for the 24 piece set is due to the fact that not all the pieces included were made with the same quality or to the same standard. Before I opened the box for the 24 piece set or the 53 piece set I ordered through Amazon I first took a look at the labels on the boxes, and much to my surprise the 24 piece set was labeled "Made in USA or Vietnam" I was rather excited at the thought that at least part of my new flatware was made in the USA. After opening the box I discovered that less than half the pieces in the 24 piece box were made in the USA and the rest were made in Vietnam just as my entire 53 piece set was. My excitement soon passed as I separated the pieces and closely examined the pieces comparing the US product to the Vietnamese product. Sadly enough the pieces made in the USA did not have the same finish as the others. The edges on the USA marked pieces were not smoothed out or polished as the other pieces had been. The edges were still sharp and showed tooling marks from when the flatware was stamped out while being manufactured. Along with having sharp unpolished edges the USA pieces do not exhibit the same shine as the other pieces in the set and the satin finished area is not as pronounced. The real test however was placing two sets out and asking the wife if she noticed any difference between the two place settings. She immediately pointed to the Vietnamese produced setting and said that they looked slightly better than the other (USA) set. Overall I am very pleased with this flatware, just saddened that the domestic product does not appear to be produced to the same standard as the other foreign made pieces.

3.0 out of 5 stars Decent - but not great., January 14, 2007

I've owned this set for 3 years now. The spoons and forks are okay. There was some unequal polishing on the handles - since the outsides are polished and the inside concave portion is not - there wasn't a crisp line between polished and not. I've had a problem with the blades of the knives separating from the handles. The knives tend to bend at the handle and then when you correct the bend, you end up with a space between the handle and blade. I'm not sure you can do better for the price, but I know you can do better.
