Oneida Sheraton 5-Piece Place Setting, Service for 1

5 Stars ONLY If Made In The USA!
The Sheraton stainless that was made in the USA is simply exquisite and easily rivals any sterling set and I would highly highly recommend those. However, I recently purchased service for 4 from Oneida through Amazon. Big disappointment. Although Oneida failed to mention where the flatware was made on their website, when it arrived a 1" bar code sticker affixed to back of the box stated in very tiny print "Made In Indonesia" and after examining the set I found serious flaws.

The beautiful detail of the Sheraton pattern was not evenly imprinted. There were areas on the knives, forks and spoons where the pattern actually became lighter and then invisible. I have never seen anything like this! In addition the Oneida mark was not done well at all. It was much too large and garish and actually interfered with the pattern even tho it was on the reverse side. The Oneida mark on the Made in USA set was very fine, subtle and tastefully done.

It is sad to see such a lack...

Stands the test of time
I've had the same 5 5-piece place settings for the last 12 years. Anytime we eat out or at other people's houses I always notice the difference. I'm 36 but with arthritis. The pieces have a good weight and rounded barrel, so they're fairly easy to hold. They're not heavy; they're not weightless. They are easy to care for, simple and elegant looking. I love this pattern!

My only complaint is that they're cold in the morning, but that's just because they're metal. LOL!

I bought some rubber coated flatware from IKEA about 4.5 years ago and they've literally fallen into pieces.

A great find in Flatware
I have an obsession with tableware - and often buy odds and ends of flatware or silverware just to enjoy it. Such is the case with Sheraton. I have had just a few pieces for years and they are by FAR my favorite pieces to hold and to use. I'm completing my set now because I know for a fact that this set will always look and feel the nicest of any flatware available. That's saying something from me!
