Hagerty 19100 6-Piece Place Setting Roll, Blue

We purchased our solid silver place settings and serving pieces in 1998. At the same time, we purchased Hagerty bags for most, but not all pieces. These bags do a very good job of keeping the silver safe from tarnish, oxidation and corrosion. Three years ago (12/10/07) we purchased additional bags for 4 place settings and 4 service pieces. About a year and a half later, we were appalled to find 4 place settings and 4 service pieces not tarnished (dark brown), but corroded (greenish blue patina), whereas 8 place settings and 4 serving pieces kept in the older bags were pristine. We did not track which bags were related to the corrosion at that time, but suspected the new bags (all with a "made in China" tag). We carefully polished and stored all the silver. On opening them for use for Thanksgiving 2010, 4 place settings and 4 serving pieces were corroded again, this time we know for sure they were stored in the new bags. Needless to say we are very disappointed in the 2007 purchase and Hagerty's failure maintain a quality product.

UPDATE March 2011. The President of Hagerty responded to a letter with an apology and advised me that they no longer use Chinese suppliers for these bags. She sent me replacements for all the subject bags. I have put some silver in the new bags. If these are the same as the older bags, I will be able to report success in about a year.

UPDATE November 2012. Thanksgiving 2012 was the first opportunity to use our silver since using the replacement bags. I am pleased to report that there was absolutely no sign of discoloration on any of the pieces. Hagerty now again has my complete confidence.

These cutlery rolls are absolutely the only way to store your silver flatware. Instead of stacking your cutlery on top of each other as happens in storage boxes, each item goes into its own storage slot and each pouch holds an entire place setting all neatly rolled up in silver cloth.

Wooden storage boxes are pretty, but this method has truly helped prevent scratches caused from "stacking".

Instead, I simply place all the pouches in the drawer of my china cabinet and next time I am setting a formal table, I simply reach in an pull out how ever many pouches I am going to need.

I absolutely love this method of storing my silverware. My set was brand new in 1965 when I got married. I love to entertain and I am one to use my good china and silver as often as possible. Yet despite the many uses over the years...storing each place setting in a separate storage pouch has helped to keep my set looking "gently used" over the years.

Now I will soon be purchasing a set for our daughter's silver set.

I am writing to confirm Aquanut's findings.

I bought this setting roll at Bed Bath & Beyond, in order to ensure I recieved a "Made in USA" roll. My sterling silverware is made by a highly reputable producer (Reed and Barton), and all cleaned at the same time, using Hagerty silver polish.

It has been about two weeks, and the silverware stored in this roll is already noticeably tarnished. By contrast, in the same cabinet drawer, wrapped in a no-name microfiber cloth, the silver was pristine.

After checking the Amazon reviews on the Hagerty zippered hollowware page, I noticed this defective cloth problem seems to be widespread, and common to both the USA and China versions.

Update: Hagerty replied to a letter I wrote them earlier, and sent me a Made In USA replacement roll. I will update here in a few months with any findings since then.

Update (6 months later): Silver in the new roll looks good so far. No noticeable corrosion at all! Bumping up the stars to reflect the new roll.

Update (1 year later): Silver still looks good. Bumping the stars. Great roll, and the company clearly stands behind their products. Just be sure to double check your silver and make sure you get one of the new Made in USA batches.
