Reasons Home Needs Stainless Steel Dinner Plates

By Olive Pate


Quality utensils are a homemaker's best investments for home maintenance. In India for example, many households have invested in the durability of stainless steel dinner plates. Able to make stainless utensils by hand, India prefers this material because it gives a polished look while being lasting for decades even with daily use.

Steel that resistant to tarnishing and rust was patented and manufactured in the 1900s. It was a great invention during that time because aside from being sturdy, equipment owners need not fuss about corrosion. Fifteen out of 150 grades of stainless steel are most popularly used. When it was first invented, armaments manufacturers benefitted most of all. Now, it has various uses from architecture to transportation and is widespread in the common household.

Stainless steel sets are relatively cheap compared to other materials given their durability. Their cost is worth it and many restaurants have shifted to using this material. Many veer away from ceramics because aside from being heavy, once dropped, it can never be reused. Bussing out the plates and cleaning them requires great effort and skill.

Depending on the restaurant's image, many opt to use disposable utensils. These restaurants, most especially those who have decided to be eco-friendly, are finding ways to minimize waste. They have chosen this alloy-of-iron flatware because it is more sustainable than paper and Styrofoam. For the common household, dinner sets like these are readily available throughout the world at the local department store or through online shops. Newlyweds can start with a 12-piece set which consists of a pair of flatware and a tumbler. A small household can start with an 18-piece dinner set.

Local department stores and online shops carry different sets of utensils made to be resistant to tarnishing and rust. Newly married couples can start with a 12-piece set, which will be adequate for two people's daily use. A slightly bigger household with children will need a 24-piece set with a pitcher included.There are sets with 100 pieces or more. If you have a big family, this is excellent. If not, you can stack them up for big celebrations. You have to consider storage space and remember that stainless utensils are stackable unlike glass that breaks when nested.

Stainless is best for homemakers because of its durability. Most of all, it is safe around children. If a child drops a utensil, you can just pick it up just like nothing happened. To make sure that you get the best, look for the 18/10 mark. This means that the material is composed of 18% chrome and 10% nickel. The lower the numbers, the lower the quality of the utensil.

Cleaning utensils that are resistant to tarnishing and rust is easy. A sponge and light detergent is all you need. You may rinse it and then leave it to dry. Avoid lemon scented detergents because they can damage stainless. This material is dishwasher safe too. A few reminders, though: do not crowd it most especially with silverware. In addition, do not include them in the hot drying cycle.

Stainless steel is the best material for a dinner set. It is easy to clean and maintain. It is made of a durable material, which is safe around children. Most of all, it is presentable such that guests will be wowed by its classiness and presentation.
