## How to Choose the Best Bargain Stainless Steel Flatware for Your Home.
So, you're in the market for some new stainless steel flatware but don't want to break the bank. Great choice! Stainless steel is durable, affordable, and looks fantastic. But how do you find the best bargain without compromising quality? Let's dive in.
### 1. Understand Stainless Steel Grades.
"Grades? What are we talking about?" you ask. Well, stainless steel comes in different grades, primarily 18/10, 18/8, and 18/0. .
1. **18/10:** This is the top grade. It contains 18% chromium and 10% nickel, giving it a brilliant shine and high durability.
2. **18/8:** Slightly less nickel but still excellent quality.
3. **18/0:** Contains no nickel, making it more affordable but less shiny.
For everyday use, 18/8 is a solid choice. It's durable, shiny, and won't cost you an arm and a leg.
### 2. Know Your Brands.
Not all brands are created equal, especially when it comes to budget-friendly options. Do some research. Look for brands known for making quality flatware at affordable prices like Oneida, Cambridge, and Cuisinart.
"Do I have to stick to these brands?" you wonder. Not necessarily! But it's a good starting point to ensure you get a quality product.
### 3. Check the Finish.
A good finish can make all the difference. Cheap doesn't have to look cheap. Look for a smooth, even finish with no rough edges or marks.
"How do I check?" Easy. Simply run your fingers along the edges and surfaces. A good finish feels smooth and looks polished.
### 4. Balance and Weight.
"Why does weight matter?" you ask. Lightweight flatware can feel flimsy and cheap. Opt for something with a bit of weight. Balance is also important; flatware should feel comfortable in your hand.
Tip: Hold each piece to check its balance and weight. It should feel neither too heavy nor too light.
### 5. Number of Pieces.
Always consider what you need. A basic set usually includes 20 pieces, covering settings for four people. However, larger sets include extras like serving spoons and forks.
"But what if I just need the basics?" No problem. Start with a 20-piece set and add on as needed. Many suppliers offer matching pieces individually.
### 6. Price Range.
"How much should I spend?" That's a great question. For a good bargain, aim to spend between $20 and $50 for a 20-piece set. Anything cheaper might lack quality, and anything more expensive might not qualify as a bargain.
### 7. Read Reviews.
Reviews can be your best friend. Check out what other buyers are saying about the flatware you're considering. Look for feedback on durability, appearance, and how well the flatware holds up after multiple washes.
"Really, reviews?" Yes, absolutely. Real experiences from real people can save you from a bad buy.
