Oneida Mooncrest 20-Piece Flatware Set, Service for 4

It's sad. There was a time when Oneida meant quality. Those days are gone--now Oneida is just a nameplate, and its products are manufactured in generic, no name factories in China just like the X brand junk you can get at any budget store.

This set is low quality. The pieces are made from very heavy steel. Why? Because the steel they use is 18/0 stainless, the lowest quality stainless you can get. They have to make the pieces thick or they'll bend. Compare that to my 10 year old Oneida set, made from 18/8 stainless. They're thin and light as a feather because it's high quality steel.

Also, they include an insert in the packaging to tell you not to use these with acidic foods and that they must be washed right away to prevent damage. Why? Because low quality 18/0 stainless will be etched by food, but higher quality stainless (18/8) will not. In other words, don't fall for the hype. If it's cheap junk you want, buy a cheap junk brand and pay a cheap junk price. If you want quality, don't buy Oneida.

The quality and durability is average for sets in this price range.

The appearance is clean and simple.

The soft metal surface does scratch easily. If you have any hard water issues, the smooth surface may show water spots.

If you use any sort of abrasive cleaning, such as a scratch pad, the surface WILL scratch. Hand drying may be necessary.

The knife handles are somewhat heavier than average. The set is heavy enough to prevent bending.

If you are looking for a set in this price range, and avoid the scratching issues mentioned, you'll likely find they are satisfactory.

I have owned this flatware before buying this particular set. The finish stays really shiny even after heavy use. The finish is in no way fragile. The lines of the pieces are beautiful and the weight is just right.
