Kitchen Aid Cookware: J.A. Henckels Bellasera 45-Piece Flatware Set, Service for 8 Review

I purchased two 45 piece sets of this flatware and am so pleased with it.

I love the design of the handles. They feel great in the hand and fit together well in the drawer. Storing service for 16 in my standard-sized silverware drawer is no problem because the pieces "spoon" so well together.

There are no sharp edges on the handles, despite their square-cornered appearance. I am perfectly comfortable having my kids use the flatware.

The knives feel heavy for their size, which I like, and they cut through meat much better than standard place setting knives. I don't anticipate having to use our steak knives for anything. I was pleasantly surprised by this, but I guess I shouldn't have been since the flatware was manufactured by a knife company. The knives sit on their edge, which takes some getting used to, but makes a really unusual and interesting place setting.

I have run the flatware through both handwashing and the dishwasher several times now and see no evidence of rusting or spotting. I specifically wanted 18/10 stainless for this reason. Both my handwashing and automatic diswashing detergents are lemon scented, but there have been no problems. The directions that come with the flatware contain really helpful suggestions - items you don't want to soak your flatware with, etc.

The five serving pieces that come with the set are: Cold meat fork, serving spoon, slotted serving spoon, butter knife and sugar shell. The first three are of a good size that we'll use every day. The cold meat fork's tines flare out slightly, which is very attractive.
