Where can i find a decent fork spoon & knife set?

Apr 5, 2011 10:55 PM

I've looked mainly at Oneida but they only sell sets of four. Im just shopping for myself.
The ones i have now water-mark really bad, but that might be from my dishwasher.

Edit: I'd totally get this for myself if I didn't have kids. But since I have kids, I can get it and say it's for them. :)

@thepenrod: That is the cutest/coolest thing I've seen in a long time! I don't have kids (well, I do, but he's 41), but I'm now old enough that I don't give a rat's patootie about buying silly stuff for myself. OTOH, if the son and DIL would get around to upgrading the grand-dog to a grandchild, I could buy two sets!

Four and five-piece place settings are customary, and it's very unlikely you'll find any "regular" flatware that's different. On the other hand, if you spring for a 16- or 20-piece set, which is service for four, you'll be totally set in case you ever want to have company. Oneida is a nice, mid-range brand, and I have accumulated and enjoyed a lot of it over the years. However, they also sell some less expensive lines branded as theirs but made in China to lesser standards. I have two sets of that quality flatware, too, and it seems to do just fine for everyday use. Has a relatively good heft and balance, and you can often find the 20 piece sets for about $30-35 on Amazon. Here, for instance: http://www.amazon.com/Oneida-20-Piece-Stainless-Flatware-Service/dp/B00004WA8I/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1302053031&sr=8-6

This one is about $6 cheaper at Walmart, but here's a quick look: http://www.amazon.com/Oneida-20-Piece-Stainless-Steel-Flatware-Service/dp/B00005NKAA/ref=pd_sbs_k_2

HTH

Just to be clear, you are looking for 1 set. With 1 each of a fork, spoon and knife?

Go ahead an buy a set of four place settings. You'll have extras in case one gets stuck in the garbage disposal. Heck, buy 8! You might decide to have company over for dinner some day and having flatware certainly helps, especially if you're serving soup.

Decent set for four people, I didn't see anything in the reviews about spotting: http://www.amazon.com/Fancy-Foliage-Flatware-20-pc/dp/B000Y05PD8/ref=sr_1_4?s=home-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1302097385&sr=1-4 I'm not wild about them, but you might like them.

@magic cave: That is the set my parents had/have. They held up VERY well with three klutzy kids, dishwashers, etc. I had no idea that pattern was still around!

Not a farewell, just a forced redirect.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
