Amazon.com Review
Classic in design with a simple pattern of concentric rings, this Fiesta dinnerware set looks timeless on any table. The set includes four of each of the following: 10-1/2-inch dinner plate; 7-1/4-inch salad plate; 7-inch bowl; and 10-ounce mug. Ideal for cereal and soup, the bowl is shallow, only 1-3/4 inches high, and the straight-sided mug features a round handle and slightly flared lip. Fiestaware accessories in all colors of the rainbow can add a quirky, informal feel to this starter set.

Made in the USA by the Homer Laughlin China Company, all Fiestaware produced since its reintroduction in 1986 is dishwasher-, oven-, and microwave-safe, colored with lead-free glaze, and fully vitrified to result in chip-resistant china durable enough for restaurant use. Fiestaware's timeless designs first appeared in 1936, and have been popular with collectors ever since.--Ann Bieri

Fiesta is Green
As responsible members of the business community Fiesta is dedicated to the safety of their customers, the preservation of natural resources, and a reduced environmental impact. They pledge to continue to make a safe and reusable product free of harmful materials such as lead. Their consideration for their customer's safety is a long standing commitment, with the removal of lead from select pieces of their line in 1986, to the complete removal of lead in all products since 1992.

Fiesta remains vigilant in the pursuit of innovation to reduce their carbon footprint on the global landscape. By rerouting waste kiln heat to other processes, they are able to eliminate the usage of enough gas annually to heat nearly 1,000 homes for an entire winter. Fiesta has also implemented a clay reclamation system which blends back waste clay into their clay formulation at a rate of 2 tons per day. In addition, 99% of all products are made in the USA, cutting the need for overseas shipments.

Fiesta pledges to reduce their amount of resource consumption, recycle what they use, and eliminate the use of natural resources when possible. In 2007, a review of their packaging allowed for unnecessary cardboard to be removed--this improvement cut their cardboard usage by 17 tons over the course of a year. In addition to the reduction of the cardboard that is used, all waste cardboard is recycled, and any new material they purchase has a minimum of 39% recycled paper content. When innovating, Fiesta is mindful of the waste generated in upgrading their facility. In 2006, Fiesta upgraded wastewater treatment processes, and was able to reclaim an additional 1.2 million pounds of clear glaze, which previously would have been discarded. In 2007, they recycled over 200,000 pounds of steel, cardboard, and glass, and implemented a paperless order confirmation system, saving over half a million sheets of paper in the course of 1 year.

How to get rid of scratches on Fiestaware
I have a type of dinnerware that's very similar to Fiesta, Metlox Colorstax, and it gets knifemarks the way people are describing getting on Fiestaware. To get them off, I make a paste of Bon Ami cleanser & water, rub the paste all over the scratched parts of dish, leave the paste on for several minutes to half an hour, scrub the dish, then rinse it off. The knife marks disappear to a great extent because they are *on* the glaze, not cut into it. I imagine this would work as well with Fiestaware as it does Colorstax.

Fun and durable but not perfect
We purchased our Fiestaware set in cobalt two years ago. Overall, we have been very satisfied: no breaks or chips whatsoever. The color is as deep and bright as the first day, even though we are constantly putting it in the dishwasher. We only have two issues with the set. One is that there are scratches visible if you tilt the plates into the light. It is disappointing that scratches would show from ordinary use with a fork and knife. An additional complaint is that when we use them in the microwave, the plate/bowl becomes very hot, long before the food is cooked. We get by using a hot pad or oven mit when handling the dish, but be advised that you may need to heat up the food longer than with other dishes. In spite of these two problems, however, we intend to keep these dishes forever, or pass them onto family who need a spare. They are VERY durable, aside from the scratches.

Awesome!!
I can't say enough good things about fiestaware, I'm
addicted!! The colors are so great, I really love this
persimmon, but the sunflower , plum, periwinkle and
turquoise are pretty as well. Another great thing is
the durability, I have never had a chip or scratch and
I'm pretty tough on dishes. Also, I am impressed
with Amazon, they have great customer service!
