I looked for some reasonably priced, non-pretentious stainless steel flatware. The Oneida stuff seemed to fit the bill nicely, and was generally highly praised by reviewers. There is a bunch of reviews for the "boston colonial" style of the same set, and the consensus is that it's a pretty decent product. Only the last review had 1-star rating, and the author explained that Oneida changed the formulation of the steel from "18/10" to "18/0". The difference is that 18/10 steel is more expensive and truly stainless, while 18/0 is cheaper, and rusts. I dismissed the review thinking that the company would not be so unethical as to market stuff as stainless when it's not. Boy, was I wrong. After couple times in the dishwasher I see brown spots on spoons and forks...
