Gourmet Settings Twist and Shout 5-Piece Hostess Set

Beautiful, slightly funky, quality flatware! I love it. I looked for one year before choosing this set. Only 3 stars for durability because I am waiting to see how it holds up in the dishwasher.I'll update at that time.

My son bought these for his new life! This set is sturdy and very nice. He LOVED them. Very pleased with this purchase. Have the matching silverware set too.

Nicely created

Though I purchased this set of dinnerware and the Hostess Set over a year ago, I haven't writtten a review until now because I wanted to see how they performed. The hostess set is perfect, and I use it all of the time with large gatherings. I love the feel of the dinnerware in my hand....perfectly weighted, and I love the look of the set with my Franciscan Apple dinnerware. The only minus, is that it has to be handwashed.

I get soo many compliments on my silverware! I just keep adding to this collection. Used for the past 12 years and still looks great! My everyday collection!

Holding the silverware felt weird, too thin. The fork shape is too flat to eat comfortably. I have a set that looks similar. I was disappointed that I couldn't add to my set with these.

I bought this flatware because I loved the look. I’m happy with it so far: it’s sturdy, feels good in my hand, and easy to clean.A friend has had a similar design, made by the same company, for 10+ years, and his has lasted without any problems, so I hope mine has the same longevity.

This is a beautiful, no traditional set. It is well crafted and the objections I've seen in other reviews have not been a part of our experience. The round stem my both some people as it is just a bit harder to control in the hand. The pieces are heavy, so it has the feeling of a more expensive set.
