Classic with a modern edge

I really like this flatware - it has classic lines, so it fits well with both my casual and fine dinnerware. However, the curve of base of the flatware gives it a modern flair. If you are looking for flatware that fits with a "handsome room" style, this fits nicely. The weight of these pieces is good; the are also longer than my old set, which gives them an added elegance. The tiny stamp on the tines/bowl/blade is also a nice touch.

Pros
  • These are very elegant - very satisfied.
Cons
  • Expensive price point

Shipped fast. Item as expected it was high quality and given as a wedding gift.they were pleased. Highly recommend item and seller!

Pros
  • Fortessa Forge is produced to withstand the rigors of daily use and last a lifetime
Cons
  • Not suitable for people with allergies to nickel

Very light and the teaspoon is like a baby's spoon

I was disappointed with these. The web page said there was heft, but I didn't think so when I got them. I put the tablespoon on the gram scale and compared it with another tablespoon from a place setting that cost the same, and the Spada was much lighter. Plus, it's hard to see on the picture, but that teaspoon belongs in a salt server.

Pros
  • Flatware
Cons
  • May not suit special dietary needs (i.e. vegan, kosher

Beautiful set for my opinion

This set is absolutely beautiful. Seems very well made. I love to set beautiful tables and I’m thrilled with this!. The serving pieces are VERY nice too

Pros
  • Forge pattern: features a traditional stylish subtle design; casual or formal settings; full bold Weight
Cons
  • Too heavy for children to handle

Compared new sets to my 5 year old sets- both are perfect!

5 years ago, I got a set of 12 for our wedding. After a few large dinner parties it was clear I needed settings for 16, and was happy to find the pattern available on Best Buy (Crate and Barrel used to carry it). I was happy to see that my new 4 settings looked exactly like my old settings- the old ones weren't scratched, or dull in comparison to the new sets. We use them daily- throw them in the dishwasher, and then throw them back into the drawer organizer. They have held up beautifully, and…

Pros
  • Very nice . And shiny.
Cons
  • Teaspoons are too small

Great Looking Silverware

Love my Doria silverware so much. I wish I would have ordered them years ago. They are sturdy, and exceptionally rich-looking. I feel they are easy to hold and worth every penny. They are beautiful and would probably hand wash to keep them pristine. They are great!

Pros
  • Fortessa Forge's sleek design complements any contemporary or modern dining room
Cons
  • Too short for deep dishes

Great Weight and Detail

Nice heavy-weight stainless flatware that looks good on the table and feels good in your hand. If you have a dishwasher with a separate cutlery tray on the top, you may have challenges fitting the larger pieces into the slots.

Pros
  • OMG!!
Cons
  • May not match existing tableware

Top Quality: my feedback

Pros
  • I love these. Better than any flatware I've seen in a restaurant.
Cons
  • Not dishwasher safe

Rusting already best in my review

These are beautiful, sturdy and substantial looking but unfortunately the butter knives have already shown some rust.

Pros
  • Perfectly complements any dinnerware or serveware
Cons
  • Uneven weight distribution among the pieces

Absolutely beautiful and perfect

I want to have this silverware set forever. It’s honestly gorgeous, such great quality. I want another set after the 2 sets I bought. These are gorgeous.

Pros
  • 18/10 stainless steel: greater resistance to stains and rust, superior shine; polished handles, edges and Fork tines for long wearing use
Cons
  • Not suitable for formal occasions

Great mixing and serving spoon.

This spoon is much larger and heavier than I expected, but it is exactly what I was looking for! It is very sturdy for mixing thick cookie dough and a perfect size when used as a serving spoon. I'm glad I ordered two!

Pros
  • Indonesia
Cons
  • Not dishwasher detergent resistant

Beautiful Flatware - my new review

Really nice, heavy weight flatware that fits comfortably in the hand. Handle pattern wraps around. It's a modern look, but user-friendly. Holding up fine in the dishwasher after daily use for a month. Only quibble is that the teaspoon is rather small.

Pros
  • It is just like the dinner forks except larger. Works great for serving meats
Cons
  • Spoons are too shallow

Weight and balance feel good in the hand.

We love the style, and the weight and balance feel good in the hand. The large spoon is just the right size for soup, ice cream, cereal, or mac and cheese, and the smaller one is perfect for stirring morning coffee. We got the steak knives as well, and have been happy with them too.

Pros
  • Dishwasher safe, for easy and hassle-free cleaning
Cons
  • Handles are too short

Love this heavyweight stainless tableware!

Everyday feels like dining at an upscale restaurant. Spotted a different pattern at the Hotel del Coronado in California and ordered the serving spoon in the Doria pattern on Best Buy to check it out. Exactly what I was looking for so I’m ordering the set

Pros
  • Pretty flatware
Cons
  • May not fit in standard silverware drawer

LOVE this silverware!

I totally LOVE this silverware! I wanted something with a different look than what everyone else had plus a great quality that could be handed down to my children like my mother handed hers down to me. Now I want the serving pieces.

Pros
  • Dishwasher safe for everyday use; Fortessa brand and/or mark on each piece, excluding knives
Cons
  • Forks have a strange curve

cool looking but leave water/hand mark

Very sleek design, but you need be aware it easily leaves water mark or hand marks on it. For example, when you take it out of dish washer, the moment you touch it, your hand marks will be on it from then on.

Pros
  • 9.38 x 3.5 x 11.13 inches
Cons
  • May not be able to accommodate large meal servings

It works well for eating and is very easy to wash

When you buy premium flatware, you get premium quality. Heavy, shiny, gorgeous. I am a huge fan of the contemporary design. It works well for eating and is very easy to wash. The fact that it's 18/10 steel is a great thing. No acid etching, no dulling, nothing.In a rush, I washed some parts of the set in a dishwasher and they came out with tiny scratches. I'm not sure how that happened but they're still perfectly usable. It just bothers me that they're no longer perfect.Worth every penny.

Pros
  • 20-piece set includes complete place settings for four people
Cons
  • Incomplete place setting (no soup spoon

Love this pattern! - my new review

I bought service for 8 several years ago. I loved it and always received compliments when guest came over. Fast forward to this past year. a friend who was going through a rough time fell in love with my silverware. I gave her the entire service. After the silverware was gone, I realized that nothing else made me as happy. I just bought a new service for 12. This pattern is very classic and goes with any occasion. It goes in the dishwasher without incident and looks new after years of use. My…

Pros
  • Ergonomic handles are comfortable to hold
Cons
  • Not suitable for people with arthritis or carpal tunnel
