Amazon.com Review
Winner of a 2002 international design award, Loft dinnerware epitomizes an urban, modern lifestyle with its clean, all-white forms. The German-made porcelain is kept elegantly spare except for a subtle pattern of fine concentric circles that feels pleasing to the touch. While the Loft collection encompasses both round and square shapes for mix-and-match individuality, this particular 16-piece starter set contains just the round. Included are four place settings, each of which consists of the following: an 11-inch dinner plate, an 8-1/2-inch salad plate, a 9-1/2-inch coupe-style soup bowl, and a straight-sided mug. Rosenthal, long one of Germany's most prestigious porcelain manufacturers, produces dinnerware that graces the tables of outstanding hotels and restaurants worldwide. Loft was created by the Queensbury-Hunt Design Group for the Thomas brand that falls under Rosenthal's umbrella. Loft works equally well for an impromptu brunch or a celebratory dinner party and is safe for both the dishwasher and microwave. Handsomely boxed, the set is eminently suitable as a gift for the design-savvy friend or relative setting up a new kitchen or desiring a new tabletop look. A wide range of accessory pieces is available separately. --Ann Bieri What's in the Box
4 place settings. Each place setting consists of: dinner plate; salad plate; soup bowl; mug. 16 pieces total.

 Modern, Classic Design with Slight Imperfections May 27, 2008

I agree with the other user that utensils do tend to slide off the edges of the plates and bowls. I can get used to this. And, the mugs are a bit small for my taste in comparison to the oversized look of the plates and bowls. However, I don't think these two imperfections--if you could even call them that--warrant this to be a four-star item. This set is high-quality, high design, and just fine for everyday use. I am overall very pleased with this set and will order any replacements if needed. FYI: this item was also solidly packed when shipped. No breakage here.
 Beautiful but one unforeseen problem December 24, 2007
Crunch Solutions (New York, NY USA)
I bought the dinner plates, salad plates, deep soup bowl (for soup and pasta) and the 5 inch bowls for desserts. Really love the look of the set overall but one unforeseen problem prevents me from giving this five stars.
The dinner plates are deeper than one would expect and consequently, forks laid to rest keep slipping down into the food. Over time one learns how to balance one's fork very exactly but guests might find themselves fighting with their forks.

I've sently purchased 3 boxes of the Loft china. I love it, it's a good classic design. But beware that the bigger plates might not fit your dishwasher or your cubords. It didn't fit our normal cuboards in our case. Luckly we could free up some space in our corner cabinet. But when you're having a dinner for a few people I'm sure you'd prefer if they fit in the dishwasher. So measure first, and maybe consider buying the pieces separatly so that you can choose a smaller since on the dinner plates.
