Reed & Barton Country French 18/10 Stainless Steel 5-Piece Place Setting, Service for 1



Buyer Beware - Now Made in China!
Although the Reed & Barton Country French pattern is lovely, it is now MADE in CHINA! I purchased a 5-piece place setting to add to my existing set. Much to my disappointment, it is now made in China. Not only am I concerned about using this flatware for food since the metal it is made of is questionable, but there is also a definite change for the worse in quality. For example, the "made in China" dinner fork weighs 1.4 oz vs 1.9 oz for the original dinner fork. That 0.5 oz makes a big difference in heft and feel. Very disappointing.

Disappointed
I was disappointed to open the package and find that the Reed and Barton Country French place setting was made in China! I returned it for a refund. It is a beautiful pattern--wish I had bought more years ago when products were made in America.

Disappointed
I was very disappointed to find out that this place setting was not exactly the same as my original setting...the product said made in china, and lead content was less than my setting. Even though the setting name and brand name is the same the quality is NOT! My original setting was made in japan.
