I trusted the maker (Wallace) and thought I was getting a great deal on this silver chest. I wish I had spent more money and had gotten something that was of quality. This piece looks tacky and cheap. The design was nice for a 16 piece set, and that was the draw for me. But the wood had no tone, pattern, etc., and the hardware is awful. The worst feature was the knife rack on the top of the chest. The length of the inserts to put the knives into was of varying sizes. So, on mine, there are knife handles that are up and down across the lid. The picture shows a very straight line of handles. Mine are anything but.....

This product is great! It holds all my flatware and is easy to store. The price is super as well.

This box is gorgeous. I'm very happy with it. The only thing I was surprised about was how long the box is and I think it may be hard for me to find shelf space for it. The dimensions are approx. 18.5"L x 10.5"W x 3"H.

This chest seems to be well made and nicely organized, but it somewhat small for a full silverware set. No designated place for serving pieces.

I was very excited with the quality of this flatware storage case. It holds my entire two sets of flatware, including the hostess pieces and even some extra butter knives that I like to have on hand for special dinners. However, the knives will not stay in the slots (under the lid of the case) assigned to them when the case is closed. So that when I open the case, the knives are scattered on top of the perfectly organized flatware beneath them. It's very aggravating.

I recently purchased two nice 8 place setting flatware sets with serving pieces included with each set. This chest easily holds all place settings and service pieces. It is not the finest quality wood or hardware, nor would a reasonable person expect the finest wood and hardware at this price point. The appearance of the chest is acceptable and the inside is well padded with all the expected slots to protect all flatware pieces. I will store the filled chest in a drawer. The chest does not have protrusions that make storing it difficult. I am most interested in protecting my flatware and therefore did not see a reason to spend a great deal of money on something that will rarely be seen. If your taste and needs are similar to what I describe, you will be happy with this flatware chest.

I sent this item as a gift. It was newly varnished and smelled strong. Also, the packing tape was taped over the varnish and peeled a little off. No so happy about this.

I was so happy to receive this chest...I searched & searched for a reasonably priced chest for service for 16 could not find any. I disagree with the other reviewer, the wood is beautiful & it held all my pieces, & more. The only down side (if you want to call it that), if you have flatware which hanldes are wide, you may have a hard time fitting them in their. Mine are slightly wide however I was able to fit them in the slots. The quality of the chest outweighs the price! I really wanted this chest before Christmas however it must have sold out. It was posted again shortly after the holidays & I received it promptly. I would defintely deal with this seller again.

I had a tough time finding a flatware chest to hold my 16 place settings. This one is perfect! The dark wood and black interior is just beautiful. I absolutely love it!

I am very unhappy with this product. The knives will not stay in the inserts on the lid top. The minute you try to close it, the knives fall out. Currently I am storing them on the bottom sides or where ever I have room.
