Noritake Colorwave Graphite - 4 piece place setting



Good everyday dishes
I registered for the Noritake Colorwave place settings when I got married five years ago. They have held up wonderfully, despite our rough treatment (we wash them in the dishwasher and stack them to store). Only a couple of pieces have any chips. They are slightly heavy, which my husband loves, and they simple colors compliment everyday living. They do eventually show little scratches and chip occasionally, but I have never had one break.

Great quality, beautiful stoneware dish set
I have owned this collection (service for 12) for 2 1/2 years and I love it. I have the chocolate brown color. I actually purchased from Macy's, not Amazon, but I wanted to comment since several people have left negative reviews and I have had none of the problems mentioned. They are our everyday set, and we only wash our dishes in the dishwasher. They are still in beautiful shape - no scratches, nicks, or chips at all. We also don't have kids yet though. I love these dishes - all of mine were well made (I inspected them all out of the box before we started using them), and I really liked that they were a stoneware but don't show the metal marks from the utensils like others do.

The only issues I have found with them are: 1) you can't put cling wrap on them (as another reviewer pointed out), so I use foil instead or if it's something in a bowl I put one of the small plates on top of it, and 2) coffee and tea do stain the cups over time, but I just put a small bit of bleach...

4 years - No Chips or Scratches!
I was searching for other pieces to add to my set and was surprised to see all the negative reviews, so felt compelled to add a review noting my good experience. My husband and I received 12 sets of the 4-piece place setting(6 green and 6 graphite) for our wedding 4 years ago and have used them extensively as our everyday dishes since then. We always wash in the dishwasher and are not especially gentle (these are everyday dishes after all) and have not experienced any chips nor any silverware scratches. And we've definitely banged dishes together in the sink, and on the edges of the granite counters around the sink. Every piece in the set still looks brand new after 4 years of daily use. I love the simple style, and the various other plates/bowls/platters/bakeware that Noritake continues to introduce to complement these dishes. I will agree that certain brands of plastic wrap do not like to stick, but I rarely store anything in the fridge in the bowls/plates. My husband and I...
