FortessaArezzo 18/10 Stainless Steel Flatware, 5 Piece Place Setting, Service for 1, Brushed Stainless Steel

I found the first place setting of this pattern at an Amazon resale store. Paid $2. Was quickly hooked. Bought another place setting on EBay-makers mark was present. Went to Amazon as I wanted to end up with six place settings. The photo shows the makers mark. 1st set received, no makers mark, returned. 2nd set received, purchased as used near new with mark, no makers mark again. Please either update your photos or create a site with and without the mark. Honestly, I see a difference between the marked and unmarked sets. Quality is lesser in unmarked sets. Otherwise it’s a wonderfulpattern, and I will keep on till I get what I’ve paid for.

These utensils are high quality and set a very nice table for everyday and guests. I initially ordered the brushed finish but then switched to the shiny - soooooo much better! Super nice Arezzo from Fortessa. I ordered enough for 8 settings and of these only 2 pieces were slightly marred. Amazon quickly arranged for Fortessa to replace them. All happy here!

I purchased two of these 20 piece Arezzo sets in the brushed stainless. The design is clean and minimal but they have a nice, balanced weight to them and are easy to maneuver. I have owned a set of brushed stainless utensils and have experienced rust spots with those. These set seem to be holding up pretty well now six months in use. There has been the occasional knife come out of the dishwasher with rust spots but rubbing with a cleanser type cleaner removes them and they don't seem to recur.One thing to be aware of in the design is the stamped logo on the forks and spoons. I don't mind the appearance of this but it is also something one may notice when putting the utensil in your mouth. If you are not aware of the impression the sensation may be mistaken for some debris stuck on the utensil.

So far, so good! After two washes this cutlery still looks like new! This is my third try buying rose gold cutlery. Other high end options had bad smells or peeled. The three things about this cutlery that I don't like -- 1) stamped on front; 2) small fork has asymmetrical cuts on tunes (one is deeper); 3) slightly weird gritty feeling -- not particularly smooth.One of the best reasons to buy? This is NOT made in China!

I have a set already I got from William Sonoma but needed more. These weren’t stamped. The picture shows a stamp but min clearly don’t have it. Knock off? Beware. Photo on right is from my original set that is stamped. Disappointed about spending that much money and they don’t match.
