I love these dishes because they are cute, they kind of look like a plastic version of fiestaware, and they are unbreakable (unlike regulat dishes or some melamine) -- which is important in my house, since I have an autistic son who sometimes throws things. I just bought this set in green after having bought the same set in yellow a few months ago. My only complaint is that if you serve meat on one of these plates, and you cut the meat with a knife, it can leave a scratch on the dish, so just be careful and aware of that.
