    Default S/O Thoughts on Fiestaware?

    Does anyone have Fiestaware? ( or is it Fiesta Ware?) We have one bowl someone bought us for a wedding gift that we like. How does it hold up to every day use? TIA!

    I LOVE mine. I have Sunflower, Cobalt, Scarlet, tangerine and Lime. What I LOVE is the fact when "I" dropped a plate and broke it I was able to replace it. The set of dishes we got for our wedding the stopped making the pattern. Now I know if I want to add to or replace pieces they are available

    Holds up well, dishwashes well, looks fun

    I love the look of it, but I think it is heavy and my SIL complains it does not fit well in their dishwasher.

    It's lead-free, which is nice. Pricey though.

    I got mine at Macy's last year. It was 30% off plus I got the 15% coupon out of the paper PLUS I had DH sign up for a macy's card which was another 20%. It was like $18/place setting for the cup saucer bowl and plate.

    I guess you could call it heavy but I had stoneware plates before so I didnt think it was to heavy. Ive hver had a problem stacking the dishwasher I run it every day but I have 4 kids

    We have almost all of the colors and just mix and match every night. It's fun stuff, maybe a bit heavy, but it fits perfect in our dishwasher. Easily replaceable if needed too - and always on sale at Macy's!

    But the Fiestaware outlet is 2 hours away from me too.....

    Another Fiesta lover! I just love the colors. It is on the heavy side, but not too bad. It has never chipped in 9 years but I have broken a few pieces. I love getting new colors and I just sell the ones I've gotten tired of. You can always find a good deal on it too.

    Love it!! We have several colors. I prefer to eat on scarlet every day and it just makes me smile. I have no problems fitting the pieces in my dishwasher and I run that puppy at least once a day, maybe twice. I also have no issues with the weight. I can't wait to get more colors!

    I think $25/setting is too expensive for casual dinnerware. I'd rather not spend that much or take the time to bargain-hunt for it.
