Review of Pfaltzgraff Napoli 16-Piece Dinnerware Set, Service for 4

These dishes are absolutely beautiful.The colors are vibrant and my three sets arrived well-packaged and without damage.

Note: If cupboard space is an issue, you may want to choose a different set, as these dishes are huge (compared to my old Corell dishes).I especially love the oversized mugs and bowls.

Additional comments...one year later
While I stand by my original review for beauty, I no longer recommend these dishes.We are empty nesters, so there are no kids around beingrough with the dishes on a daily basis.Because the plates are too large to fit into the dishwasher, we hand wash the set.That being said, the dishes look awful.There's at least one chip on every large and small plate.We bought a large set, so that's a lot of chips.We think the problem is that the dishes are too big and thick.A slight bump of two plates doesn't bother Corell or even a thinnner set, but these thick ones cannot take it.We paid a pretty penny for a set of twelve, and it's time to replace them because the chips are an eyesore and a reminder that I made a bad purchase.Contrast this with a set of dishes (not Corell) that I bought for the holidays years ago.These dishes are brought out in Nov and used through March (snowman pattern) and were around when our children were young.I brought them out last weekend and there are nochips on any of the pieces and we put them in the dishwasher.That's what I expect from a set of dishes.
