Love this pattern
By GailwVerified Purchaser from Oregon on 2/26/2008
Pros:
Attractive Design
Best Uses:
Daily Use
Describe Yourself:
Practical
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I love this pattern and keep buying more--which is unusual for me as, in the past, I have tended to move onto something else that catches my eye. Reason for replacements is not poor quality but that my kids insist on throwing dishes into the dishwasher in protest against the chore (hasn't worked for them yet.)

These pieces are very attracive and rather large. The mugs and bowls are "oversize" and hold a lot of coffee and salad or cereal respectively. For the quality, the price was very reasonable.

Big and Beautiful, But Maybe Too Big
By Lasagna MasterVerified Purchaser from Florence, SC on 2/6/2008
Pros:
Attractive Design, Doesn't stain, High quality
Cons:
Too big for dishwasher, Too big for our cabinets
Best Uses:
Daily Use
Describe Yourself:
Bargain Hunter, Practical, Stylish
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

The platter is beautiful. The large size is wonderful for serving, but the round shape makes it too big for our dishwasher and our kitchen cabinet shelves are not deep enough to accomodate it. My favorable recommendation is conditional. It would be wise to measure your dishwasher and to find a large place to store it before you order this platter.

After approximately 15 years of using this pattern many dinner plates were chipped and used looking. I ordered replacement dinner plates of the pattern I already own. I revived my old set and kept the pattern I really like.

Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Love my new dishes; after 15 years of original dishes when I got married, it was time for something new. I love them! They're very beautiful and I love this particular set - came with mugs and nice bowls, not cups/saucers which I never use...so it was a great choice in pattern and in practicality! They were packed wonderfully - not 1 chip or problem!

After much deliberation and many weeks of research, I came upon the Mikasa Garden Harvest dishes. It seemed to be everything I was looking for as far as quality and beauty for my newly remodeled "Old World" Kitchen. I continued to research reviews and Mikasa warranties. I had chosen two patterns from Pfaltsgraff earlier that I was convinced I needed and wanted, but I continued to run into bad reviews of quality and durability issues. Then, I stumbled upon this pattern and it was sophisticated, but not fragile, colorful but not over the top loud colors as I was finding in more of the italian style designs. This seemed to fit everything I needed...it was durable (wanted to use in dishwasher, microwave, and sometimes oven). It had a great track record from previous buyers and thier recommendations. So, I went for it. I did want the deeper cereal bowls and coffee cups rather than salad bowls and tea cups. I then came upon this particular grouping that was exactly what I wanted! I was excited to find [...] had a better than average deal on all pieces I had selected. They beat every deal, even from mfg. dollar to dollar! I was alittle cautious upon reading some of the negative feedback from other readers. I almost did not purchase through them because of some reviews...but I decided to take a chance on them and I have no regrets [...] I cannot say enough good things about the dishes and their quality, durability (we put them in microwave and dishwaher almost daily) and most of all their beauty! Our kitchen in complete with them in it. I placed a rather large order of many accessory peices as well. I display the accessory pieces in our curio in the Dining Room and they look stunning! I am hosting Thanksgiving this year and look forward to many years of use!Thank you Mikasa for a well-made product [...]! P.S. I don't usually take time to do reveiws but this was definitely an exception that needed to be written!
