Mikasa Regent Bead 65 Piece Silverware Set, 18.10 Polished Mirror Stainless Steel, Service for 12 with Serving Set

I live this set. No chips or scratches. I use it daily so very happy with the quality!

Perfectly designed and balanced - offered at a very reasonable price. Completely satisfied.

I wanted this set for such a long time. It was backordered and when I finally saw that it was available, I quickly ordered it. The flatware is a nice substantial weight and so shiny and elegant looking. After looking for weeks and reading reviews of so many different sets, I know that I made the absolute correct choice.

I, like the previous reviewer, bought this exact set several years ago directly from Mikasa. Originally, my intention was to add a few place settings to my set, so that I had extras for food preparation, without having to run the dishwasher. Instead, I bought another 45-piece set at a terrific open-box special - I now have 16 place settings - maybe a little excessive for my needs, but no regrets! It is the exact quality of my original set. I have not babied this flatware, and wash it exclusively in the dishwasher. Due to the linear pattern on the handles, it does not show any scratches or smudges. Love that it is 18/10; no rusting on any piece. Set also comes with nice serving pieces, as well as a wooden caddy. What I like the most is the substantial weight of the pieces. Very nice feel in your hand, and the spoons, especially, are shaped very nicely. I don't like lightweight flimsy flatware. I find myself using it for both everyday and special occasions. No polishing needed. Looks brand new right out of the dishwasher! Guests have also commented on its appearance. I would compare its quality to that of sets costing hundreds of dollars more. This is one of the best houseware purchases I have made over the years. I have bought multiple flatware sets in the past 30 years, and they do not compare to this set. Recently, I found myself recommending this set to a customer shopping at a major department store. You will be very happy with this flatware. Its classic good looks goes well with both my traditional and contemporary dishware. (Disclaimer: I do not have any connection with Mikasa!)

Love it! Exactly what I was looking for. This is a substantial set of flatware. There is definite heft to the pieces which is nice. Comes out of the dishwasher shines and bright.
