Excellent Product
January 11, 2013
I bought my flatware set when PB first came out with these back in 2008. We use ours for dinner almost every night and when we have guest over. The only reason, we don't use them all day long is we are horrible at accidentally throwing out utensils. I always hand wash my flatware. Since then I've bought another set of the 36-Piece set because we entertain a lot buffet style with a lot of guests. I was thrilled when PB finally started selling the salad and teaspoon sets. None of them have rusted and several guests have commented that they liked the flatware because it's something that they can really hold on to and it doesn't feel flimsy. Now mind you, these are very strong and tall men who are US Marines so they might just have a "heavy hand" with other flatware! :)

rusted

After once in the dishwasher the knifes started to rust. I haven't washed the entire set yet (haven't needed to). Disappointing. Normally I am impressed with Pottery Barn products.

Wedding Present
October 14, 2011
The flatware was a big success and the bride and groom started using it immediately. The package got there in plenty of time and I did not realize that it also came with the flatware holder, which the bride was extremely happy about. They used the flatware for the dinner with their parents and grandparents the night before the wedding, which was fantastic and the flatware got put to the test with spaghetti and meatballs!!! Thank you for getting it there on time!

Disappointed
March 12, 2011
I was so excited to receive this set as a housewarming gift and saved it for a few months until I was a newlywed. After only a couple of nights of use, I started seeing major discolorations on the knife blades, some of the handles, spoons, and then the forks started rusting. I love to entertain, but I am too embarassed to use this set with guests now. Too bad this set is such poor quality... now I have to find new everyday utensils. I purchased the serveware set as well (also made by Towle, stainless steel) and it, too, has discolorations after only a couple of uses.

Great Set But Rusting After A Month
February 1, 2011
We received these as a gift from our registry. My husband and I liked the simplicity and the weight of the flatware. We also liked how there was only forks, knives, and spoons (3 choices). Perfect for everyday use.
After a month of light use, I noticed some pieces started to rust. I found rust on the knife handles, in the curve at the end and also on the fork sides. I really liked this set but very upset that they are now rusting. Did I get a deffective set or have others noticed this problem?

Rust???
November 14, 2010
We just used the flatware for the first time for a gathering. Afterwards, we put the pieces into the dishwasher for their second time through the dishwasher (first time was prior to use). I was so disappointed to find rust on must knife handles, in the curve at the end. Has anyone else experienced this?

Great Purchase
November 11, 2010
Sturdy yet classy looking. I use it for everyday use, an plan to buy a second set for larger get-togethers.
My only wish is that is had a soup or tablespoon - but still LOVE it.

can't wait to use
November 3, 2010
Arrived the other day very excited to receive after the other reviews. Pleasantly surprised at how heavy and solid it seems to be. Can't wait to use at Thanksgiving. Without use and dishwashing could only give it 4 stars I hope I can add the 5th after use.

Caterer's Flatware
October 27, 2010
We were updating our flatware and had considered quite a few sets. We have a large family and the Caterer's Flatware has the basic utensils we use on a daily basis, as well as enough to use for a family dinner. It has the pieces we need, the quality is excellent, the weight is perfect, and can set the table for 12 and we will probably order another set for larger gatherings. We love it.

Flatware set

I purchased this set as a gift without handling it and happened to be visiting when it arrived. I was pleased with the quality and the lovely storage box it arrived in. And best of all I was delighted that the gift was well received!!!

Always looks classy

I have purchased two sets of this and so happy I did. We have many large group gatherings and my regular old stainless always looked awful and I did not want to polish the old wedding silver. This always looks great. Very good value for the money and makes my life easier!

Heavy Duty!
April 13, 2010
We love, love, love this flatware set. We actually bought a second set after seeing how great it was. When we got it, everyone in our family said, these are so heavy. They were a great step up from the cheap stuff we had used in the past, and very reasonable priced for such a big set. I would absolutely recommend this to anyone looking for great everyday flatware that also looks fabulous with your fine china.

Great Flatware
April 13, 2010
I really like the 36 piece flatware set I purchased from Pottery Barn...we use it everyday and it washes up nicely in the dishwasher. Very sturdy design and I love the storage box that came with it.
