I bought this set as well as "Red Vanilla Everytime White 16-piece Dinnerware Set" to get 10 dinner plates, 10 salad plates, 4 mugs, 6 cereal bowls, and 4 pasta bowls. This combination was the best for us—we didn't need many more mugs and wanted the two types of bowls. We use this as our regular set, therefor they see daily use. I've waited to write the review in order to let people know how they hold up. So far, four months in, there has been no scratching/deglazing. One plate has chipped, but that was our fault. The white is a creamy white, which I love. If Great Offer Stock allows photos, I'll post some! But seriously, you should buy these; I looked a long time before finally choosing and I couldn't be happier.
