Amazon.com Review
Taking its cue from Scandinavian modern, New Attitude flatware shows strong yet simple forms for a contemporary look. While the fork tines, spoon bowls, and knife blade are fairly traditional, the thick handles feature blunt ends and a subtle curve-the forks curve to the right and the knife and spoons to the left, in order to compose an embrace for the dinner plate. Each piece feels durable, weighty, and well-balanced, living up to the EveryDay name of the collection.

Reed & Barton, one of the nation's oldest silversmith companies, is renowned for its stainless flatware in addition to its silverware. Made of heavy-gauge 18/10 stainless steel, this 45-piece set includes eight place settings and one hostess set. Each place setting consists of a dinner knife, dinner fork, salad fork, soup spoon, and teaspoon, while the hostess set comprises a serving spoon, pierced serving spoon, cold meat fork, decorative shell sugar spoon, and pointed butter knife. The set comes elegantly gift-boxed and every piece is dishwasher-safe. --Ann Bieri

Honey's Mom July 16, 2008
Love this flatware!! I have some other Reed and Barton pieces and know the quality they offer and was shocked at the prices Amazon offers. This flatware is priced significantly less than on the other websites I looked at. The flatware is simple but still bold. It has a slightly larger size to it but is not too big. It has a nice, solid weight. It has washed well for me. I'm very happy with it and recommend it.

First of all, the picture on Amazon of the set makes the flatware look grey/blue in color - this is NOT right! The set is a traditional polished silver steel color just like most of Reed & Barton's other sets. For an accurate color, go to R&B's website and search for it (or look at the picture of the serving pieces on Amazon for this set which is closer to the real look). I couldn't have been more pleased with the set once I got it. The set is modern, but with enough simplicity to still be classic. I wanted a set that was more neutral/versatile in look.

The weight is solid as well and I like the balance of each piece in the hand. It's far more robust than the cheap 18/0 set I bought before from Bed & Bath. Also, very important - this set is truly 18/10 stainless steel. I double checked with the manufacturer beforehand. Be careful as there are many flatware sets on Amazon that are incorrectly designated as 18/10 when they are in actuality 18/0 or 18/8!

For those of you who don't know, 18/10 refers to the proportion of chromium to nickel in the stainless steel alloy. The addition of nickel to the alloy increases its corrosion resistance while adding a bright polished appearance, hardness, and exceptional resistance to all temperatures. As the nickel level is increased, the quality of the stainless steel is increased. The "top of the line" boast 10% nickel content (or 18/10), the highest quality available in stainless steel. 18/0 is the lowest quality and has no nickel in it. Believe me, the 18/10 difference is immediately visible to the naked eye - flatware looks more bright and water tends to bead on the steel almost as if there is a wax coating on it.

I got the set for $90, which in my mind is a good price for a 45 piece 18/10 set. Couldn't be more pleased and would highly recommend this set!
