I'm ready to buy but have 2 quick questions .... Are the spoons stainless steel? Are they manufactured by Oneida or third party? Thanks.

I have more than 10 years with the complete set, I bought the spoons, because my kids took them to school and lost some of them. I love them. Yes they are stainlees steel and oneida brand

Yes, they are made by Oneida in the USA. And yes, they are stainless steel. You will be very pleased with them.

Yes, stainless. NOT made in the USA! The four I ordered are definitely lighter and thinner than my original Oneida. Not the same quality at all, though the appearance when flat on a table is very close.

Oneida's website says USA and they guarantee their pattern availability for life. Their flatware is forged at Oneida Foundries Melco Inc in Oneida, NY (www.thomasfoundry.com). I couldn't find anything that cites where the steel came from though. Made in USA doesn't always equate to the raw materials sourced in the USA. For example, most American cars are made in North America but the parts come from international sources. There are others that are assembled in Mexico but have a good chunk of parts made in the USA. Still, if you have any questions about the brand you should contact their customer service rather than rely on a random post on Amazon. Really, anyone can say anything. http://www.oneida.com/customerservice/contact-us/

Mr. Glen's answer is right on the money. I love this set and the spoons are not too big for me and I have a narrow mouth.

It is my opinion, that since these spoons are made of stainless steel, they should be dishwasher safe. I have never washed the set which I bought for my mother in the dishwasher. I hope this answers your question.

I have the black ones. They are stoneware. I ordered from Amazon, and was extremely disappointed that they were not bone china. That said, a million trips through the dishwasher, and they still look brand new. Well made, but NOT bone china.

Hi, Not sure why the spoon looks like that. The spoons are beautiful. I love them and I am going to get more. I have purchased alot of spoons in the last 30 years and these are by far the best. You won't be sorry getting them, you will love themdee

Yes, the spoons are rustproof, but the ring clasp that holds them together is not. It can rust. I had to remove my clasp, since the dried rust stains started to collect on the spoons themselves. I think the manufacturer might want to consider a stainless clasp as well.

I don't know anything about the grades of the stainless. We first saw it in the store at Macy's and we thought it was beautiful. (maybe you can see it at Macy's). Then we found it on Amazon. They were both about the same price, but we live a distance from Macy's, so we ordered it from Amazon. It is quality flatware. It is pretty heavy, but not as heavy as this expensive flatware that my mom has: Oneida Michelangelo. My mom has had for probably 40 years (they still make it) but it is $50 a place setting. My husband thinks that our Mikasa Cocoa Blossom is prettier and nicer than the Oneida. It is not made in China. It was made in a different Asian country.(I can't remember which one. ) I don't know anything about the grades of the stainless.

Yes. They have been really good since I have had them! Just make sure you use plastic or wooden spoons

I'm not a metal expert, so this is just my personal observation. There are no markings directly on the scoop, but the sticker on it says 'stainless'. I've washed mine successfully in the dishwasher and they are holding up great for my purposes. (I use them as flour/sugar scoops.) They are not made out of a thick metal, they're kind of thin. But again, sturdy enough.

They are not DULL or matte' . . . they sparkle. Used mine very often and still they shine!!!! I have received more compliments on these marvelous spoons than I get on the desserts themselves! really ! Either washed by hands or in dishwaster - they refuse to stop shining! LOL LOVE LOVE "EM !!!

No idea, there is nothing stamped on the spoon rests themselves to indicate where it originated. The packaging might have said but that went in the trash as soon as I got them.

yes, although, now that I have had them for several months, and I use them all off the time; I would not recommend them to anyone. Their quality is shoddy. I have had the smaller spoon fall apart already. The larger spoon has chipped. I found a chunk of it in a soup I made. I am not rough with my tools. I have a set of wooden spoons, that I am still using, for over 25 years. They are still just fine.

These are the same spoons that are used in restaurants and schools. I bought a set of these spoons 3 years ago, and wash them in the dishwasher. I would definitely buy another set of these spoons! You can buy the same exact spoons at sams club for 5.88, dinner forks 7.12, soup spoons 7.86, dinner knives 13.86.

Sorry I don't know. I gave it as a gift several months ago. I know the set had the quality and "feel" of Oneida stainless steel tableware. I would purchase this product again.

They aren't too bad. I think they are decent I bought 2 sets to have new silverware, but in other comments about them rusting is true if you leave them wet in a sink or such.... otherwise pretty happy with themAs far as the ice cream I am not sure i always blast my ice cream in the microwave for 30 secs or so so it is a lil softer or let it sit out... + I have different spoons for that
