I ordered two 5-piece place settings of Mikasa flatware, but was sent the wrong pattern. I was told the Silver Spoon would send a label so I could return the wrong flatware, but no label has come yet. I would have reordered, but they were out of my pattern, anyway, so I cancelled. I hope it’s still being made by the time I find another place to buy it. :)


Make some money if you live in New Jersey!!?
Ok, I have a set of Burgandy Glasses that one of them broke. I bought them 3 years ago at Mikasa. The company apparently will be closing in december. There is one mikasa store in the country who has my glass set, it is in moorshead new jersey. I called them and they will not ship the glasses mikasa Country because they have ceased shipping due to the impending close. I've called corporate and done everything including begging and they won't help me. I've tried to get the store managers to step in and help, and they will not. I live in Florida so driving to New Jersey is not really an option. I would be willing to pay someone to buy the glasses for me: the cost of the glass set, shipping to florida, and extra for your consideration and troubles. I have exhausted all other options....surely someone must pass this Mikasa in their daily travels...this is my last hope. The store is in Moorshead. Contact me if you would be interested and we could figure out the details.

    I bought these for 40$ a set, and they are gorgeous!

    This set of Mikasa flatware is really terrific for a number of reasons:
    1) It looks great. The pictures shown here on Amazon don’t do justice. The flatware has a great luster and is simple, but elegant looking.
    2) The pieces feel solid. Each of the flatware pieces (especially the knife) has a solid, durable feel to it. Part of this is because the pieces are a bit oversized.
    3) The price! At $20 a set, this is really a steal.

    OK. Those are the good points… but there are a couple of tradeoffs. Here are a few negative points (although they are relatively minor):
    1) The pieces are 18/8 steel. This is lower quality steel than 18/10. Although the pieces are made in Korea (which has better steel production than China), the steel itself is not “premium” quality.
    2) All the pieces have “Mikasa” (as well as “Made in Korea” and “18/8″) PRINTED on the metal, rather than stamped. Because it’s printed (on the underside of the pieces except for the knife), it detracts from the flatware’s otherwise elegant look. I haven’t owned my set long enough, but I’m guessing that the print will eventually wear off (hopefully).
    3) The spoon is really big. Although all the pieces are a bit oversized, you will notice right away how big the spoon is.

    All in all, this is a terrific flatware set for $20. Although there are some minor issues, those issues are really minor (no more than 1 star’s worth). If you’re looking for a casual flatware set, I strongly recommend considering this one. You won’t be disappointed.

    I just recieved this set today and am enamored with the look, feel, and balance of the pieces. Absolutely worth the money spent! It does have a “Mikasa – Korea” stamp on the underside of each piece, but it did not detract from the piece’s elegance as much as I thought it might when purchasing.

    Love this flatware, simple, elegant pattern; nice weight & balance, but on the back of every piece is a “MIKASA Made in Korea” stamp that’s way too large to miss. This logo unfortunately detracts from an otherwise versatile design, rendering it inappropriate for anything beyond “everyday-friends & family” use.

    Mikasa, if you’re listening: hiding the tacky logo would be a great way to improve this product’s appeal.
