Know before you buy
No, this set is not microwave-safe. Melamine can release chemicals when exposed to high heat, so it is best reserved for serving cold or room-temperature meals.
Yes, this set is top-rack dishwasher safe. To maintain the finish and prevent potential scratching, we recommend using a gentle cycle and avoiding harsh abrasive detergents.
Melamine is significantly lighter and more durable than ceramic or porcelain. While it has a smooth, polished feel, it lacks the heavy, substantial weight of stoneware, making it ideal for outdoor dining or households with children.
While melamine is shatter-resistant, it is susceptible to surface scratches from sharp metal cutlery. We recommend using plastic or silicone utensils when possible to keep the surface looking pristine over time.
It is perfectly fine for serving warm foods, but it should not be used for boiling liquids or high-heat cooking. Avoid placing the dishes directly on a stovetop or in an oven.
