No longer 18/10 flatware
I received 10 placesettings of this flatware in 1997 for my wedding. I just ordered 6 more placesettings of the same at the end of Dec 2009. When I received them I noticed they were not quite as heavy and not as rounded as my older sets. After a few washes, I took a closer look at them as they weren't washing as well either. I noticed the stamp on the back of the new ones...

the "starter kit" of the Studio line, December 31, 2003
This review is from: Gorham Studio 5-Piece Stainless Flatware Set (Kitchen)
Pros:
1) dishwasher friendly
2) scratch resistant (for the most part - but don't scrub the life out of it!)
3) great for everyday use, but stylish enough for formal entertaining
4) the knives are sufficiently sharp for most meat dishes
Cons:
1) they hold heat extremely well, so watch yourself after they've been run through the d/w or been accidentally left in a pan that you're stiring
2) if you eat spaghetti like a true Italian (which I'm not, but I still eat this way), and wind your noodles around your fork by using a spoon, here's a word of warning: The spoons' bowls get scratched by the fork tines too easily and you end up with a dull-looking finish (otherwise, this set is very scratch resistant, as mentioned above). To minimize this, just use the same spoon everytime you need to use one for this function - you will unfortunately be able to tell which one you've used before.Overall, we are very statisfied with this set as a whole. They have gotten daily use for the last 2 1/2 years and have served us well. Even the specialized serving pieces (sold separately)get frequent use.

Elegant flatware, December 5, 2004
This review is from: Gorham Studio 5-Piece Stainless Flatware Set (Kitchen)
My husband and I purchased a set of Studio by Gorham flatware four years ago. We considered many brands and styles at the time and decided that we wanted to buy one set that would do double duty for everyday use and for entertaining. I think we made a wise purchase. This flatware has a pleasant heft to it, and by that I mean all of the pieces, not just the knives. The pieces are also well balanced so that they are comfortable in the hand, and the narrow neck which tapers to a wide handle is very elegant. My only slight complaint is that the finish is highly polished, and over time it has become scratched, however, I consider that only a minor flaw since any set of flatware will show wear. I am very pleased with this set, and I think it was one of the best purchases we made when we got married.

The Gorham Studio pattern is great!, August 13, 2008
This review is from: Gorham Studio 5-Piece Stainless Flatware Set (Kitchen)
This is a great casual flatware pattern made by Gorham, a very reputable company. I love the way the silverware feels in my hand. It's pretty, too. I think it is also very affordable and looks more expensive than it is.
Great item for a wedding registry.

No longer 18/10 flatware, April 9, 2010
This review is from: Gorham Studio 5-Piece Stainless Flatware Set (Kitchen)
I received 10 placesettings of this flatware in 1997 for my wedding. I just ordered 6 more placesettings of the same at the end of Dec 2009. When I received them I noticed they were not quite as heavy and not as rounded as my older sets. After a few washes, I took a closer look at them as they weren't washing as well either. I noticed the stamp on the back of the new ones says 18/8 not 18/10. I am not as pleased with the new sets and am very disappointed that companies keep selling this product as 18/10 when it is not.

Great silverware, March 18, 2008
This review is from: Gorham Studio 5-Piece Stainless Flatware Set (Kitchen)
After searching for several years, I bought this pattern for everyday usage. It has a solid feel. It looks good with everyday and fine china. My only complaint is that if it is not dried when handwashed it gets water spots. If I use my dishwasher this is not an issue.

Have owned this flatware for 10+ years, and still looks great!, August 27, 2005
This review is from: Gorham Studio 5-Piece Stainless Flatware Set (Kitchen)
I selected Gorham Studio as my "casual" flatware selection when I got married over 10 years ago. After 10 years, and two growing kids, I can honestly say that this is excellent stuff. I have used it every single day over the past 10 years, and it still looks wonderful. It's great for every day use, but can still look elegant for dinner parties. Needless to say, I'm extremely pleased!

I have owned this set for going on 8 years, and I still love it!, December 15, 2005
This review is from: Gorham Studio 5-Piece Stainless Flatware Set (Kitchen)
I am elated to find that I can still buy this design. My husband and I also wanted silverware to serve double duty of everyday as well as dress up silverware. It has performed beautifully. The spoons do show the most scratch wear with darker marks in the shine, but my mother's silver shows the same wear. All pieces are very well balanced and feel wonderful with the smooth contours in your hand. I very highly recommend this set.
