Are they very heavy? I'm looking for dishes that aren't very heavy to hold.

They are actually fairly light, not heavy like stone wear. I love the dishes but the shape of the bowls are the only thing I really don't like - they have a large rim, so for salads they work fine but for soups etc they're not my favorite...

Don't know exact weight but they are pretty heavy duty dishes. I load my drying rack with them pretty well and have not hahad an issue with that. Hope this helps!

I think it's ok that if you load with dishes. Although, do not put heavy dishes.

Heavy and light are pretty relative terms. The dishes are stoneware -- not fine china. Each individual plate is not particularly heavy, but a stack of 8 requires two hands. They are NOT as heavy as, say, Yorktown. These dishes are about the thickness of melamine plates and a little thicker than Corelle but not as thick as Fiesta ware.

The plates appear to be very solid and heavy. Although they are sturdy they are not heavy at all. No heavier than a everyday plate. You know like the ones you want to replace. Absolutely no problem drying on a counter dish rack. The colors are rich and add a pop of color where needed.! Don't delay. Purchase today !

They are fairly light unless you have lid on. I haven't weighed them but they aren't cheap feeling

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.

Haven't weighed them, but I would hope Cuisinart would have that on a product page somewhere. They are on the heavy side, but not so much that you notice. The bigger issue is the design of the handle when coupled with the weight. The handles are not as 'full' as they should be making them somewhat unwieldy when hand washing them. I am a big guy with big hands so maybe this would be different for someone with smaller hands. Overall, I'd say the weight is just right to feel substantial and not flimsy.

Yes, they are. I have another set that looks the same (and same brand) that I bought at Bed, Bath, and Beyond and those dishes are even heavier. The set from Amazon is not as heavy, but still heavier than many dishes. I love them though, they are very durable and look beautiful even after 12 years of daily use.

They seem like heavyweight to me and could be used a few times. Not sure how heavy you want it. They are like what you find in the store.

No, they are not heavy at all. They have the rubber bottom which is good for the most part. I sometimes like to turn my bowl while I mix and you can't do that with the rubber bottom. Other than that, I LOVE them!

Yes, they feel heavy. Not as heavy as her stoneware but like a normal dinner plate.

Hello Roxann....no they are not heavy at all. Very sturdy. There is a heaviness in this regards as a quality product.

I think they are lighter than most stoneware on the market. We have been very happy with these so far. Very durable and no problems in the dish washer.

They're pretty light, but not at all durable. I ordered two sets of these. One in blue, other in white. Both boxes were full of broken pieces!!! I had to return both. And decided not to even reorder these cheap dishes. Good luck

Yes, our dishes are fairly heavy too. It does require some thoughtful stacking sometimes, but we're still very happy with it. As for heavy pots, we tend to let those dry separately, on the stovetop or we just dry them immediately.
