I am debating on these plates for my wedding. I am curious though as to if they held up well to heat and a fair amount of weight? Thanks for the help!

I bought them for in-house luncheons at work. We have not used them for hot food, but for sandwiches, etc. They are stury and attractive.

They are very sturdy and can hold a lot. I've not had issue with hot food on them. I have been told they will hold up in the dishwasher but not personally tried that!

Yes they held up perfect. There thick and a good material nothing cheap like other plates. Everyone in our wedding though they were real plates. We had a buffet style dinner and they held weight just fine and we felt no heat. I hope this helped

We used these plates for our daughters wedding reception and served hot and cold foods without having any difficulty. We have also used these for large birthday party again for cold and hot items. They are attractive and look like china. Most of the guests didn't know they were plastic until they used them. Excellent product. Hope this helps.

They were sturdy--we weren't using them to cut steak but they held up as well as any of the heavy plastic utensils do and they looked nice. We were having a cocktail/appetizer type fundraiser that we wanted to be as upscale as we could and still use disposable table ware. They still feel like plastic when you hold them (versus real silver) but the table set up looked good. Hope this helps.

They don't get hot in microwave. Only complaint that I have, which is personal preference, is that plates are thick(I like thin but didn't realize until using these). However, they've been durable and for the cost are a home run.

Dishes are delicate and they are microwave safe but still one dinner plate cracked in first few warm ups (but amazon has great replacement policy).i have not noticed any scratching from fork/knife but i will recommend dealing these plates with care....Only reason why i have them is they are really b'ful, prettier than picture and have an artsy feel for special dinners.

I received four plates but three were broken. I called and emailed to have them replaced but never heard anything back. They were beautiful plates, I hope you have better luck.

I've had these plates since May. Very pleased with them. I haven't really thought about the winter season but they are heavy. Definitely a lot nicer than the ones at Wal-Mart.

I think it would be OK. I have a stack of large corelle dinner plates, small dessert plates, and two stacks of small dessert bowls and it has held up for years. I was nervous about this much weight as the legs didn't seem perfectly level but there has been no moving or shifting - I think the weight helps it not move much though. Hope that helps. Enjoy the holiday season!

The finish is good. I leave wet glasses on it all the time and haven't had a problem yet. Not sure about hot plates. It's a descent table for the price:)

Yes, very. They are pretty tough. I use them for catering and we bang em around pretty good...they are reallyelegant in person. I love them.

We used these plates for our daughter's wedding reception. They were about the same weight of plastic as the Solo brand plastic plates. They didn't really have much flex to them and held up well under the weight of the food. They looked very nice on the tables, too.

They are very flimsy. I personally would not use them for that. At best,you would a need napkin to shield the heat.

I am not sure about the weight or the induction cooktops, but I was wondering if you went ahead and bought them and would like to know what you think of them. Thanks for any feedback.

When I bought them, they appeared to be too flimsy, however, after hanging 3 plates they felt OK. The plates I currently have are only 13 inches in dia., and they appear to be quite secure after about three years on the wall. If you buy the larger hangers I think you will be OK with them. Good luck. (Mike)

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.

They feel durable to me, I've used a bunch of them for moving a couple months ago and had no problems with any breaking (even with more load in them then was strictly reasonable). The plastic is a little flexible, so I doubt they are going to crack unless they stiffen substantially over time. I've not owned them for years yet, so can't conclusively say though.

They aren't very heavy, but they certainly are not too light. I would say they are just normal weight for dishes. I love mine.

Hello!they are not to heavy in my opinion and i'm really weak lol. They are definitely good quality and they aren't too light to feel cheap but not too heavy that is hard to manipulate them while cooking or doing dishes. I hope it helps!
