Amazon.com Review

Pfaltzgraff's Sphere pattern combines a traditional striped band with an updated color palette for a distinctively modern feel. The set consists of four complete place settings: 11-1/4-inch dinner plates; 8-1/2-inch salad/dessert plates; 20-ounce, 6-inch soup/cereal bowls; and 10-ounce mugs. Made of durable stoneware, Sphere pieces are chip-resistant and oven-, freezer-, microwave-, and dishwasher-safe. This dinnerware carries a three-year warranty against defects, and each piece can be replaced individually. Pfaltzgraff makes Sphere available in dinnerware, glassware, and accessories. --Fred Brack

Product Description

There's definitely something organic about this pattern. From the echoes of circular and sphere motifs to the mossy, leafy colors, this design is tied to Mother Earth. A pleasing contrast of matte and gloss surfaces, along with the dimensional variations of ridges, adds textural interest and plays up the contrasting tones. Overall a soothing, serene setting for any meal.

1.0 out of 5 stars Marks easily - High maintenance, November 21, 2003

By A Customer

It's a shame that this beautiful and unique set does not hold up. The center of dinner plate and dessert plate mark up quite easily with knife and fork. I have used the cleaner Pfaltzgraff provides; it removes the markings only temporarily. I actually cleaned the set on a Thursday--(a time consuming procedure)--and by the the weekend the plates were marked again! A real disappointment!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Better than I thought!, June 26, 2002

I just received my shipment of the Sphere collection and I am very impressed. They have the standard heavy Pfaltzgraff pottery feel and the colors are lovely. I was surprised to see just how large the bowls and mugs are as well. The side dishes with the green accent are a bit bowlish...in other words, they are not totally flat. Other than that surprise, I'm very happy with this pattern. Also, the grey border has an almost unfinished feel which gives a nice balance to the smooth white surfaces. These dishes rival the more expensive pottery dishes one may see at high-end home stores...for a very good price!

As for $$, definately purchase from amazon.com. They have the best base price and with the super-saver shipping, you're getting quite a deal.

3.0 out of 5 stars Look awesome but quality sucks, May 26, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Pfaltzgraff Sphere 16-Piece Dinnerware Set, Service for 4 (Kitchen)

I bought these a couple of months ago and they sure look great. the free coolers were an added bonus and they complement this set well.
however, the quality of these pieces leaves a lot to be desired. After the very first dishwash, one of the plates lost some paint right in the middle. As another reviewer pointed out, it marks easily with knife and fork. I still like them a lot but I do regret having paid eighty bucks for them.
