Is this set worth it compared with cheaper porcelain sets?

If you want plates that survive daily dishwasher use and the occasional knock, stoneware is the more durable choice. Cheaper porcelain is lighter but chips more easily.

Are the plates and bowls microwave and dishwasher safe?

Yes. Sango lists all pieces as dishwasher and microwave safe. Avoid sudden temperature changes, such as freezer to microwave, which can crack stoneware.

How big are the pieces?

Dinner plates are 10.63 inches, salad plates 8.23 inches and bowls 5.59 inches across with a 21-ounce capacity. The dinner plate is on the large side for a standard cabinet.

What comes in the box?

Twelve pieces: four dinner plates, four salad plates and four cereal bowls. There are no mugs or serving pieces.

Does the caramel and cream glaze vary between pieces?

Reactive glazes like this one often vary slightly in tone from piece to piece. That is normal for stoneware and part of the look, not a defect.

Dinnerware sets usually drop during home-goods sales and around the winter holidays. Check the price history before buying outside those windows.

Our take on the Sango 12 Pieces Stoneware Dinnerware Set, Glossy Caramel & Cream

The Sango 12-piece stoneware set is a service for four: 10.63-inch dinner plates, 8.23-inch salad plates and 21-ounce cereal bowls in a glossy caramel-and-cream glaze. Stoneware is heavier and more chip-resistant than porcelain or bone china, and all pieces are dishwasher and microwave safe. The two-tone glaze hides scratches better than plain white and gives the set a warm, casual look. It is a mid-priced everyday set rather than fine china, so expect some variation in glaze and weight between pieces.
