Amazon.com Review
Stored in a revolving plastic carousel, the five kitchen knives, eight steak knives, and seven kitchen tools in this 21-piece set are always within reach. Though the thin-bladed, lightweight, stamped knives may not be the ideal choice for professional cooks seeking top quality, they have stainless-steel blades and durable polypropylene handles and are dishwasher-safe. The blade edges have both micro-serrations and larger serrations, and therefore are touted as never needing sharpening. The five kitchen knives are an 8-inch carving knife, an 8-inch chef's knife, a 5-inch boning knife, a 5-inch utility knife, and a 2-3/4-inch paring knife. The eight steak knives have 4-1/2-inch blades. The seven lightweight plastic tools are a slotted turner, a ladle, a spaghetti fork, a basting spoon, a serving fork, a slotted serving spoon, and a pair of 8-inch kitchen shears that adjust for tension. The carousel is 8-1/4 inches in diameter, and the entire set carries a lifetime warranty against defects. --Fred Brack 8-inch carving knife, 8-inch chef's knife, 5-inch boning knife, 5-inch utility knife, 2-3/4-inch paring knife, eight 4-1/2-inch steak knives, slotted turner, ladle, spaghetti fork, basting spoon, serving fork, slotted serving spoon, 8-inch kitchen shears, 8-1/4-inch-diameter tool carousel

 Junk February 19, 2005

Don't waste your money, buy a good set. The price should have been a clue. These cut absolutly nothing. The only thing worthwhile are the spoons and such. I wish I had seen the reviews on Amazon first! I don't have a dishwasher so I would imagine if I did, they would have rusted like everyone else's.
Potentially dangerous knife set April 6, 2004

I purchased these knives several years ago, and immediately noticed rust spots on the blades after a few runs in the dishwasher. The plastic utensils worked wonderfully until a week ago, when i accidently left one of the spoons in a pot of boiling water. technically, it's still a spoon, but it's tough to tell by looking at it.
i also found out the hard way that those rust spots aren't just on the surface, they eat through the blade, as i had one snap in half on me while slicing a potato two nights ago...not the handle, but the actual blade. had any of my fingers been in different positions, i wouldn't be able to type this review.

This set claims to be completely dishwasher safe, but the knives started showing rust spots the first time I washed them. The large spoons melted and warped stirring boiling water and the stand's straight up slots make a great place for dust to gather thats impossible to clean.

The plastic spoon melted when I washed it in the dishwasher. I would suggest washing these by hand because they are very light and tend to "fly around" in the dishwasher. The knives are a great item for the price. The carousel is very convient to keep all the knives and utensils in one place.
Dreadful customer service November 11, 2003

The customer service from Farberware is terrible. They run you around, you end up paying more than the value of the item after sending it back many times -- because you sent it to the "wrong" place - the place you were told to send it on the phone when you called to complain. Now they want you to send it someplace else. I will never purchase from this company again.
