Coleman 12-Piece Enamel Dinnerware Set, Blue

I think in every Western there is a shot of guys sitting around a camp fire after a long day of riding/bulding a railroad/working a gold mine/robbing banks and trains/etc. In almost every shot, the guys are eating unidentifiable food off of blue tin plates. Well, you can't necessarily be in the movies, but you can have the plates. This set consists of four plates, four bowls and four mugs. Each piece is very sturdy is enameled in that famous blue (or red) with white specks. Kind of like looking up at a clear night sky when you're out camping. The pieces are sized well and should hold up to a lot of use outdoors. But here are the three reasons to get this set. First, the set is well made. You won't have to worry about sawing through your paper plate (and your leg), or your plastic plate flipping over. You won't have to worry about your hot coffee melting through the flimsy paper cup, or your half-eaten plastic bowl of cereal blowing away. Second, hauling paper and plastic dinnerware to a campsite or a picnic site creates garbage. Garbage attracts pests and animals. Garbage stinks and creates litter. Garbage eventually has to be buried somewhere to rot, sometimes for hundreds or thousands of years. Or you could just use this set, wash it off and then use it again. Your call... Third, it just looks cool. Plain and simple. The bottom line is good value, good for the environment, good purchase for you!

#1. Indoors; This pressed steel, and enameled in Deep Blue Sea color is OK for an economical kitchen set. The bowls are too small for cereal, but would be OK for hot cereals, cooked veggies, or some fruit. The 12oz. coffee cups will cool off quick because the steel is thin, but can be held as the heat doesn't transfer over to handle, nor does the rim become to hot. Plates are just right! Regular size, and all is light weight! Now this is sold as camping gear and there it will SHINE> #2; When summer rolls around and the kids want to pitch a tent in the backyard and play campers, they couldn't hurt these Coleman's to bad. Expect some dings and chips if the kids play to rough! #3: Lastly a college freshman could utilize this set just fine! Happy camping er whatever.....

I know some reviews talk about the enamel being chipped or missing but mine were fine. I've had this about 3 months now and used it camping twice. Everything has held up and cleaned up easily.

I am happy with the quality, look, and function of these pieces. Mine were in prestine condition upon arrival, unlike other reviews which mention chips. I am careful to pack these safely up in my travel trailer so they do not get damaged during travel. Clean up nicely and the blue is exactly what I wanted.

I use this dish set every time I go camping. It is sturdy enough to get beat up thrown around in the camping gear, can handle everything I throw at it - from beef stew, to grilled steaks, to a bowl of cereal and a cup of hot coffee in the morning. No paper plates to get soaked through or torn up by steak knife. And reusable dishes are better for the environment than disposables. Easy to clean with just a dishrag, a little dish soap, and a bucket of cold water at the camp site. These dishes are a camping staple in my family -- I bought this set for my son when he got old enough to go camping on his own.

No more melted styrofoam plates for us any more when we go camping. Real food off the grill needs real plates! These are very durable and a nice size.

Overall, this set isn't bad for what it's intended. I was disappointed when a cup and plate were chipped out of the box. It was something which happened after it was placed in the box, as the chips/dust were still in the box. Something Coleman could prevent with a little more care in packaging. However, I don't expect that to happen. They're having things made in China for a reason, and quality isn't one of them. I also picked up a red set like this from a local retailer, and it also had a cup and bowl which were chipped. It's nothing a little enamel can't patch up, but it's the point of the matter. The plates are decent size, and work well for camping. They're not huge, but work out well nonetheless. I am only rating this at 3 stars, simply for the packaging issue. It shouldn't be a problem, and Coleman is cutting corners. Personally, I'd rather pay $5 or $10 more, and have their stuff made here in the USA where quality would be better.

I got this set to go on a 2 month camping trip across the country. They were perfect for our family of 5 (youngest is a baby and didn’t use them much). Used them every single day. Now that we’re home, they are in the cupboard and still being used every day! I usually serve the kids stuff in them. But I also use them. Great enameled set!

I grew up camping with enamelware like this and wanted some for the RV. The price on Amazon beat everything locally (including a big American box store). Are they quality? They are well made for the price. The enamel isn't perfect on all the pieces, but that's been my experience with type of dining ware. They feel solid and the plates are flat (unlike much of the plastic camp-ware you'll find). Just what I was looking for and it matches my old blue enamelware kettle. I'd buy again in a second.

En las características del producto Dice: " hecho de cerámica firme" Pues es de metal. Pero a pesar de esto del material; es muy bonita y elegante, ojala no se despostille como el peltre

After many years of using plastic dinnerware when camping, I finally purchased these this year to use for my annual camping trip. I absolutely love these, they are all the perfect size for what you need when camping, they're completely metal with a nice enamel over top and is extremely easy to clean. Of course, the downside is that because it is metal, it will be hot when serving hot food - nothing a placemat or plate underneath can't fix. Definitely would buy again if I need more!

cette vaisselle en métal est arrivée rapidement , tous étais sans défaut, ce n'est pas aussi isolant que une tasse thermos , cependant on peut boire chaud et l'émail protège, on peut boire sans ce bruler, arrivé bien emballé, , assez solide pour supporter un usage normal, éviter de laver avec laine acier, sa pourrait rayer émail sa ce lave tellement facilement que un linge avec savon suffit, si vous aimer les tasse recouvert émail acheter c'est pas chers . comparé avec ceux que l'on trouve en magasin, suis très content de l'achat, aucune hésitation a racheter

I really like how this set is all you need for a camping meal. They clean easily The downside is that the enamel can chip off. My son dropped one of the cups and some enamel on the lip broke off. It hasn't affected the performance. Highly recommended!
