Very pleased with Amazon!
I purchased 10 place settings of this 4 piece Mikasa Swirl stoneware. I like the dishes a lot. The mugs hold 18 ounces. The cereal bowls are very attractive with an irregular shape to them and they hold at least 16 ounces. The dinner place and salad plate are made attractive by having a combination of a glazed surface where food would be placed, and a matte swirled stoneware finish around the edges. As I said, I like these dishes a lot. What I didn't mention was that I watched the price Amazon listed them for as it sometimes went up, and sometimes went down. When I did finally purchase my sets, I got them for a great price of $23.61 a set!
The problem with these sets of dishes, however, is that the way Mikasa packages the 4 piece settings, the salad plate got broken in shipping. This happened in 5 out of the 10 sets I ordered. Amazon was great and sent out additonal sets to replace the broken salad plates, but these, too, often arrived broken. Eventually, I did...
Wonderful!
I love this set. It is unique. I haven't used it yet. Just unboxed & washed it in the dishwasher. I had to re-arrange all of my cabinets to make room for it. Also purchased the swirl glassware which I love also. They compliment each other very well. Saving this set for special occasions & or company. (Still using my old dinnerware at this time). I especially like the 2 tone finish on this set. Very nice.
I highly recommend this set, together with a serving set
This is a very nice design, I like it a lot: matte glaze on the outside, no other ornaments, except for the waves. Sleek and simple, yet elegant enough for guests and parties. I also own the creamer and the sugar bowl in tan finish, which I bought separately a year ago to replace my broken pieces from another big tableware set.
In another review I read that this 4-Piece Place Setting is packaged insufficiently by Mikasa or they were all mishandled in the warehouse and very often (50%) arrive with one broken plate, regardless of double packaging by Amazon. So it may be difficult to complete the set when the dishes go on sale.
