I've read some mixed reviews on the weight of this flatware. Are the utensils solid (not hollow)?

No heavier than any other pans! They are well made! I have them hanging from little brass hooks over my kitchen sink! Weight is relative to the person lifting them but in my opinion they are not heavy! Hope this helps. CDK

Not heavy at all but definitely has weight. I love this entire set but the salad bowls are like serving bowls.

The utensils are solid, They seemed to be forged from a single piece of 18/10 stainless steel with a solid/sturdy feel and good balance. We have been using them for the past 4 months daily and they look just as good as they did when we first received them and have been getting complements on them ever since.. A little side note. When we received our order, each utensil came individually wrapped :) if that matters to you or not but I like the fact that they took that little extra step to protect their product.

They have some heft but are not heavy like my 10" iron skillet. The bottom thickness is totally adequate for frying eggs, potatoes, or a grilled cheese sandwich without burning. The quality is very good.

18/10. I am very pleased with the weight, balance and finish of this flatware. The one thing I had to get used to, is the deep "bowl" of the teaspoons. It is unlike what I had before but it is not a bad thing. Great purchase!

no,it is very light to me,better than those heavy pan sets you see in the stores that have the designer names,although,those sets are very good,but high priced to me and they are very heavy very good quality if you are cooking many meals every day.But for normal home use , the Farberware set is the way to go.

The knives' handles are solid but flat rather than rounded. They have a nice weight to them. There is a serrated edge for cutting throught meat nicely.

I wouldn't call them heavy. They have the weight of stone wear. They aren't particularly light either. If you need a lightweight dish a thin China or corelle brand dishes may be best

Hello! I purchased mine ages ago, and still going strong. They are quite thick but not heavy. Have come in great use at our house.

They are solid. They are one-piece handles, flatter and much heavier than the two-piece hollow handles. (Unfortunately, because of their extra weight, I find them easier to drop. I prefer the hollow handles on my original set, vintage 1986. Oh well...)

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.

I would say it is medium weight. We are extreamly pleased with our purchase. They seem very durable and strong. The extra salad forks and tea spoons are a wonderful extra. I would not hesitate to recommend this set or purchase it again when the need arises. I hope this is helpful.

Sorry, haven't weighed it, but it has some heft/weight. It' not plastic and I don't think that it's hollow.

It will be personal reference really. This set has a medium/average weight in the hand. There are heavier sets but personally for me its too much and not needed. This set is also on sale right now too. I'm going to order another so I will have an 8 pc setting. A suggestion for you is to go to a better store and feel flatware and compare how they weigh and feel in your hands to really know.

They are not hollowed out. It is filled in which gives the utensil a good balanced feel in your hand. I love this flat wear! It's our everyday flat wear and holds up beautifully. So glad I bought it.

This flatware is fairly heavy - the dinner fork weighs 2 ounces per my postal scale.I hope this information is helpful.
