Do these plates chip as easily as regular stoneware plates?

I got my fiesta ware dishes almost 10 years ago for an anniversary gift. Not one of them had been chipped or damaged, until a month ago. My cat knocked my plate off the counter and it broke. Now, I'm a klutz and I've dropped these plates/bowls/mugs more than once and they held up nicely. I think it was a fluke that my cat managed to break one. It must have hit the floor just right. I love Fiesta!!!!

These are my first stoneware plates so I do not know how they stand up to others but mine have not chipped thus far. They seem extremely sturdy.

I have had mine for 3 years now and have not had a chip on any of them......love this product and that it is made in the usa and the only problem that I had is that my grandson and I were putting the plates away and he dropped it at exactly the right spot and it broke....replaced it and have not had a problem since........so I would say no they do not chip as easily as regular stoneware plates (I have had them in the past)!

this is mrs. sirrine. no, they do not chip at all. in fact, that is one of the many reasons i chose this brand; i read the reviews of the "famous person's" dinnerware and was very cautious. we love these and the color goes very well with a chocolate brown placemat, tablecloth or other dinnerware pieces.

I've used my Fiesta every day for 15 years and have yet to chip it. Between the kids and my general clumsiness the dishes have been banged around a lot!

I have difficulty gripping or holding onto anything, and previously my cupboard was full of chipped dish ware. I decided to make a change, got rid of all the chipped dishes, and gradually started with Fiesta (waiting for a sale each time). It's been about a year, and much to my happy surprise, not a chip or crack has developed. In the past, at least a few dishes would be damaged. And by the way, they were not cheap dishes but a well known high quality brand. You will be pleased with the quality.

I have not had any chipping, however I have not owned them for very long. I love the knives, so I hope the paint does not chip

Rimmed? Yes. FYI. We are into second set of these fine and durable plates. I actually broke my first plate this past week when my very wet hand dropped it on tile. Hoping it would simply bounce back intact but it didn't. These are fine crafted and beautiful.

Nope! Using this set everyday and no black marks or scratches of any kind. These are amazingly durable. I have issues with my hands and have dropped these, banged other things into them... Not a chip or crack to be found! The stoneware seems to be of high quality.

No, I haven't had any chipping problems. For normal wear and tear, Le Creuset carries a lifetime warranty.

Yes they do chip easily. I have had mine only 3 months and almost every piece is chipped.

They are fine for most plates, starting with dinner size on the bottom. There is another product described as heavy weight. I ordered both and the heavy weight is definitely stronger.

These beautiful dishes, that I LOVE, are more like Phaltzgraph in weight. The dinner plates are large so we use the salad plates for lunchen plates. So far they have not chipped or show any damage from daily use, dishwasher and microwave. Hope this helps you.

They are not quite as heavy as Fiestaware or other stoneware-type dishes I have owned. Neither are they likely to be as durable. They are beautiful. I bought them as a housewarming gift for our daughter. She loves them.

No, these are the best. I hit them so many time so hard in my sink by accident. I thought for sure that they would break but they didn't. They don't chip.Buy them you will love them.

They are not as heavy as our Fiestaware, nor are they as durable. They are lighter than most stoneware-tupe sets I have owned in the past. They are beautiful.

I have these dishes in black and unfortunately chipped a coffee mug. Now that I can "see" the inside, it is definitely stoneware, not bone china.

These Thomson Pottery dishes are made of pottery. I have had mine for over a year and with daily use I have no cracks or chips. They are lovely.

This Dishware is oven and dishwasher safe. I use it for my "everyday" set. Have had no problem with chipping.

I've had mine a while with no chips, but I'm not hard on them & don't have kids doing dishes. The small plates do crack in the microwave though. I had three of them pop right in half when warming something for just a couple minutes.

Hi ASC...I've had 3 sets of this dinnerware & though I don't use it for everyday, I have had no problem at all with scratches and mine are now about 4 years old. I do take care when I stack them but have never put any covering between. They are nicely heavy (I like that, some may not) so I suspect if one wasn't careful they might cause some damage, but I would think it would have to be from pretty harsh handling. I have been delighted with my sets & quite enjoy using them from time to time & especially at Christmas (that's why I got 3 sets). So far I've never had a piece chipped, cracked, or broken. And by the way, I'm in my 70's and can lift them just fine but if I was going to have a group of older folks to entertain, I would not use them to entertain buffet style. I find them lovely as do my company. No matter how attractive & fancy some of the paper or plastic plates are, I find they are generally not sturdy enough for other than picnics or backyard outings. Hope yours works as well for you as they have for me! Rh

It does not chip. It is a much higher-grade metal than a regular grill plate. The metal is thicker making it more sturdy. I have not been disappointed.
