Easier Fondue, harder storage
By Robin N. Fingerson
Fondue is making a comeback, and having the right dishes and serving ware makes the whole experience more enjoyable. Having different dipping sauces is a part of the fun.

Eating fondue off a "regular" plate results in mixed sauces, oil or broth diluting things, and in general a mess.

The sections on this plate work admirably for segregating sauces and fondue items, and the un-sectioned half of the plate is plenty of room to hold your finished foods. The four sections are large and deep enough to hold plenty of your favorite dipping sauces, or selections of items to fondue.

The only drawback is storage. These are heavy, thick plates, and the backs of them are smooth, which means that the plates do not stack nicely for storage. It would have been nice for the sections of the places to fit into recesses in the back a little so they could store stacked instead of precariously balanced.

Great idea; poor quality
By R. M.
These plates would have been really nice if the finish were better quality. I purchased and returned two sets because I was not happy with the flaws in the finish. There were areas that had no glaze on them; the ceramic was visible through thin areas in the finish and there were lots of bubbles in the glaze. I expected better for the price.

Great Design
By F. Bornemann
We bought these to replace some very old plates that we had from Denmark that have since dwindled down to one plate. These plates are much heavier, but I like that. Although these plates are about the same size as our older ones, the compartments for the "sauces/spices" are much deeper and the section for the food is a bit larger. We bought eight plates and we have them staked on top of each other in the cabinet. We really love these new plates. We ordered two sets, but one came with a broken dish, we called and they sent a replacement set, and we returned the set. No problem.
