Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I received a 16 piece set of these plates for my birthday, January 5th 2010. They are gorgeous in person and are quite heavy. Due to some errors on behalf of the company they were ordered from, I researched these plates the day I got them.
(I ordered a slightly different looking set, also called Galaxy Jade by Baum, but they had smaller brown borders and were more of deep blue green and brown with a wash of dark glaze in the center. Instead what I received were the very plates pictured here.)
I looked at the reviews for these plates at other prominent online sources, and the response to these has been overwhelmingly negative. Complaints from everything such as terribly fragile and breaking easy, to not microwave safe.
I decided to baby my set, as I thought they were gorgeous, and would be heart broken to return them. I handled them very carefully, I hand washed them with a mild soap immediately after use, I never let them sit in water, I never used them in the microwave. It hasn't even been 2 weeks since I received them, and the glaze has stained, edges of the plates are turning white in small areas, the glaze has started to crack off in tiny areas. The final offense is when I was putting my dishes away tonight, and one edge of a plate lightly clicked against the edge of another, and the plate chipped! A huge chip at that! There is no way the fragility of these plates can be seen as reasonable. They are beautiful, but very poorly made.
