Review on Oneida 2865020B 20 Piece Stainless Flatware by Erick Bowers

The picture is a bit misleading. I thought the finish would be "brushed" stainless steel, not "polished". They shine. Like a mirror. AKA, you can see yourself in it. You should wipe the dishes with a cloth to keep them looking clean after washing/drying. Since we don't often have guests, it doesn't really matter. BIG minus for me: Two of the cutlery pieces in the whole set had bells and whistles. It's like someone dropped her down a garbage chute for a millisecond. Very disappointing as I'm pretty sure NEW cutlery shouldn't look 'used'. As a result, two pieces of cutlery in the package were damaged. They're great if you like "polished" cutlery. I'm not a big fan but I'll live with it. Be careful when shipping damaged silver - I even bought mine direct from Revain and this has happened to me!
