This beautiful pattern and quality of tableware make this a good product!, November 15, 2005
This review is from: Pfaltzgraff Flower Garden 16-Piece Dinnerware Set, Service for 4 (Kitchen)
I bought two sets of the Pfaltzgraff Flower Garden Dinnerware Set so that I could have service for 8.
Now, I wish I had bought one more set.
When I purchased the sets last month they were selling for $24.99 Service for 4.
They then went up to $49.99 and now at this date it is $59.99.
So, I am hoping that it goes back down and I will buy another set.
I also checked other stores for this.
The price is the best here at Amazon. Wal Mart had it for $59.99 and when I asked the manager for Kitchen & Household Department I was told that they don't go on sale.
I have already gotten compliments on the style.
They are microwaveable & dishwasher safe.
They are heavy not lightweight.
They don't break that easily. Proof was when my boyfriend dropped one of the plates on the floor.
They have other items with the same style that you can purchase that really make the dinner table look like something out of a magazine for a fraction of the cost.
They have two different types of bowls.
You can purchase the additional bowls, luncheon plates, etc from Amazon.
Yes, they are cheapest here as I have looked around.
You also want to see what special Amazon has going on.
I was moving to a different state where my boyfriend had already established a house for us.
Amazon has a special going on most of the time. If you buy $125+ from the Kitchen & Houseware (certain items are excluded) you WILL get off $25. You just need the code and you enter that when it is time to check out.
The quality of this tableware set is good.
For me the price was excellent since this is a starter set.

Terrific dinnerware, December 18, 2004
This review is from: Pfaltzgraff Flower Garden 16-Piece Dinnerware Set, Service for 4 (Kitchen)
This is truely a beautiful set. I just loved the bowls. They are a bit larger than I had anticipated, but the whole set is just too good. I was really impressed with the way Amazon shipped this set. It arrived in a perfect condition, no damages whatsoever.
P.S. If your silverware is leaving marks on the dishes, you have to get the porcelain cleaner that Pfaltzgraff makes. It leaves the dishes spotless. Also using a less expensive flatware will leave no marks! So go cheap on the flatware!!

Such a happy pattern, March 25, 2006
This review is from: Pfaltzgraff Flower Garden 16-Piece Dinnerware Set, Service for 4 (Kitchen)
I have loved this pattern for years, and finally invested in it recently. It's heavy and feels substantial and well-made, not clunky. I bought four place settings from Amazon -- but my first four settings were bought used. What impressed me was how well it had held up. A little scrubbing powder took care of the silverware marks (not anything Pfaltzgraff makes, just plain ol' Ajax).
I also like the very reasonable size of the actual food area on the plate (that probably has a fancy name -- but the part of the plate where you put the food, not the lip). It's not a huge serving platter like a lot of modern plates that you feel like you have to pile high to cover blank space. The salad plates and bowls are also reasonable. The mugs are plenty big for real coffee drinkers.
It is getting harder to find the pieces, though. I'm not sure if it's a discontinued pattern, maybe. Also, a lot of the extra pieces shown on Amazon -- spoon rests, tidbit trays, some bowls -- aren't the stoneware, but are melamine. Just be aware. The spoon rest I have is a good quality melamine and is fine.
