Simply Irresistable!

Reviewed in the United States on July 10, 2019

Verified Purchase

I bought the plates for everyday use. They are lightweight, as melamine usually is. They are sturdy, easy to clean, just the right size for dinner, and everyone who has seen them wants to buy some for themselves. So far it's a really great product. They do get really really hot in the microwave and should only use them minimally in there as melamine dries out with frequent microwave use, but still works, just be careful when removing them. Once I find some in ceramic, I'll probably get them too. Really good deal for the price.

Learning the planets

Reviewed in the United States on March 9, 2016

Verified Purchase

The planet plates were much nicer and sturdier then expected. Bought as gift for little grandkids who are still using plastic plates. These melamine plates had great graphics in intense colors and are very attractive. The older grandson ticked off the names of the planets while we checked the back of the plates for the names. Great fun to use and now we are all learning the names of planets. The only downside of the plates is they are listed as non microwave safe. Having them microwave and dishwasher safe would be the full package.

Very cool

Reviewed in the United States on April 11, 2021

My 2 sons are beyond plastic divided plates, but heavy ceramic/stoneware plates are impractical for them. They both love all things outer space, so I decided to try these plates. They are great! I was a little worried about how they would survive the dishwasher and forks/knives, but they’ve done very well so far. The only complaint that I have is that no one wants the Mercury plate! It’s kind of ugly, lol. But, seriously, these are awesome.

Bought these for my 8 year old son for Christmas. He loves anything related to Outer Space, so he loved these plates, as do my other kids. The kids get excited to see what planet they get when eating dinner. The plates overall have a nice look with the different planet designs and colors. They are made from Melamine, so very durable and great to use with kids in the house. We love these so much, I may end up ordering the matching bowl set.

Plates are great. not as clear as i thought

Reviewed in the United States on December 6, 2021

Verified Purchase

These plates are great and the people I bought them for will love them. However, I was hoping that the drawings of the planet would be a little clearer. Also the box was damaged. Which is probably the fault of Amaxon(my x doesnt work) but it isnt a deal breaker because it is an awesome gift.

These are awesome. The planets are pretty and the melamine is sturdy. The box is hilarious! As an added bonus, we get to giggle every time someone eats off of Uranus.

A great product

Reviewed in the United States on December 1, 2016

Verified Purchase

I bought these planet plates to share with my 3 grandsons. 2 for each of them and 2 for me when they come to visit. I am really excited to give them at Christmas. Each plate has an original watercolor painting, lovely to look at and accurate. Plus the bonus of each plate having the planet identified on the back for those of us not always sure of what planet we are looking at. The packaging is great quality with images on the outside and information inside. A qualty product all the way through. I recommend it highly.
