Does anyone know if this is the same weight and quality of the Chinet Cut Crystal plates? I am seeking plates that are not bendable.

They are sturdy plates. We used for a reception and people had several items on the plate and plate could be held with one hand. No collapsing . Hope that info helps

I purchased the chinet plates - large ones as well- could not discern a difference between these and chinet- I can tell you these are not bendable! and are very sturdy...hope it helps

These are not the same weight as Chinet however they are also not bendable. Used them for a large party last night and people said they looked very elegant. Excellent buy for the price.

NONE, of which I a'm aware.Having recieved the set(I love them), IF you prefer the "scientific" weights, that DO have tolerances such as +/-.003gr.-then I would suggest that "level" of item. These work fine. Additionally for the price-they are difficult to beat!~ Good Luck...

Yes I am very happy with the quality. We had a Henckle set for 10 years so I was not going to compromise on quality. We cook extensively and these knives are excellent weight, sharpness and overall quality. My only negative comment at all is that we nick/remove the stain around the slots if you don't put it in perfectly. The block is a light oak stained so not a solid color block. Again I am very picky high end product perfectionist... :)

They are packaged like paper plates or Chinet plates are. Very strong and durable.

I have not had any problems with the plates and bowls chipping or breaking, however I have yet to knock them hard against the faucet or drop them on the floor. They go though a daily routine of moving in and out of the cupboard against other corelle dishes and I do not notice any harm. I am sure I will eventually knock them about, but for now, the plates are as strong as they are lovely, only time will tell. If they are as resilient as my older corelle sets, I will have no worries. Remember that the mugs are not corelle and will break. I hope this helps you.

It's definitely like Pfaltzgraff, it has substantial weight to each plate. Just to let you know, I used it for the first time at Christmas and my family just couldn't stop raving about how beautiful it was. You'll be happy if you purchase this I'm sure.

Don't know how to answer you. These are not heavy but they are not so light as to feel flimsy. These silverware is in between the 2. Heavy enough so that it won't bend easily but not so heavy that a child can use easily without any problems. My suggestion is to order a set and if you don't like them, return them. I ordered 2 sets because I loved the design, weight, quality and the price.

I couldn't use my wall scale to weigh the plates, but I bought the set because of its weight - I have bad arthritis in my thumbs and hands and I wanted something nice and durable, but not too heavy. I would say the weight is in the medium range - not really heavy, but not as light as fine bone china.

These plates sit one inch off the table, nice lip, and not too deep. Very nice and perfect weight, not too heavy. I bought them for steak platters, but they were too small. Thinking about ordering the next size up. Hope this is helpful.

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.

If you look on Lodge website they have exact weights listed. Also listed in their booklets that ships with them. I'm a Chef and use them daily. Very well made!

No idea - but you can go by Walmart and pick up one of their open stock plates or bowls and see how lightweight they are compared to other ceramics or stoneware. Walmart didn't have the pattern I wanted, and Amazon has several patterns.

I do not know if the plates are heavy, as I bought them last year for a Christmas present for my daughter who lives out of town. She told me when she recieved them that the set is gorgeous, commented the colors were beautiful and a little more vibrant than pictured on Amazon. She loved the set so much that she got rid of all her old glassware and dishes and bought everything that would compliment this set. I think you should refer to things of RR that you can see in stores. Everything I have seen of Rachael's in the stores, her stuff is substantial, but not too heavy. My daughter made no comments about too heavy or too light, so, I think the set is likey good there.

I've had these flatware and I really love them. I've had other kind that bend or brake but these are really good. Hope this helps...

I'd call it "china" or "porcelain." It's breakable, of course, but not especially fragile -- quite a sturdy, chunky weight. Quite charming.
