How old are your dinger plates?

[Ikeasucks]

Just that really - bought mine10/11 years ago - day in/day out. Only set i have but still going fairly strong

Dinner - ffs! 🙄

They were on our wedding list so 20 years old.

Our dinner plates were wedding presents, so thirty years old this year. Most of them are a bit chipped but I'm not bothered.

The ones I use at the moment where given to my parents as a wedding present 40 years ago.

Around 25 years old, bought from Woolworths. There's been a few casualties over the years and its diminished a bit, so we really need a new set, but I've been looking for ages and can't find anything I like anywhere near as much.

Mine are from my first wedding 26 years ago.

Is that daily use? Impressive replies. And I thought mine were lasting up pretty well.

My 'everyday' ones are only 16 years old, my wedding dinner service ones considerably more

Yes daily use.

I think about 8 years old. Although we have two that i kept when my parents were clearing their old house out - they were from their wedding china so must be 46 years old!

About 25 years old.
We do have a "High tea" set inherited from my GM which is at least 90 years old and is... um... not entirely to our taste so is lovingly dumped/preserved for future generations in our loft.

A few are about 18 years old from a house share and a few others are from about 10 years ago that i 'inherited' from a pub I worked in. They have had serious heavy use and look brand new.

My parents gave me my everyday set in 1990 when I moved into my first home - so 30 years. I have one more dinner plate than I started with, all the mugs and bowls but the side plates didn't fare so well, just 6 left from 12 (idiot housemates from the early days)

Some are about twenty years old and some are about 16 years old. Used daily.

How is this possible? I'm getting drastically low after 5 years. Butter fingers.

Couple of weeks. They are from Sainsbury. Last set were from Argos and lasted about 3 years. They were meant to be a stop gap but even so were crap quality and got crazed / poor glaze so had to go

They were bought in Wilko when I was a second or third year student, and are still going strong (except a bowl which bit the dust) 7/8 years later

Most of mine were given to me when I started university nearly 20 years ago. We have others in our cupboard and I have no idea where they came from.

I’m using 15 - 30 year old plates which aren’t showing signs of wear.

Have ‘inherited’ a lot of kitchen stuff on death of my mum recently. Happily using small plates from 1950ish. A great ice crusher from 1920ish (grandparents I assume) best bread knife ever from 1960s and I think never sharpened (?!). Etc.

1960s pyrex, I use them every day.

Nearly 30 years old and only one tea plate broken.

I collected Portmeirion 25-30 years ago. Ten years ago, when our 'daily' plates got old tired broken I started to wonder what I was saving my 'special' plates for ... So we've been using the Portmeirion for ten years now!

I've got 1960s Pyrex too. Inherited them from my grandfather. I love them, they are a lovely retro pattern and are much smaller than modern plates!

Daily use since the late 1980s

There have been a few broken over the years. And I think the next breakage might mean I need to replace - I have been looking on discontinued' sites, but as it wasn't posh it never features

I bought Denby Memories in 1982 with my first flat. It was indestructible but wore and dated. Put it away in about 2006 and DC have used it for uni. I still have the teacups and saucers for when my mother comes. Oh, and the butter dish.

The posh stuff is Wedgewood 1991 and I only use it when we use the dining room which is hardly ever.

Daily use now is Wedgewood White. Very simple but not indestructible and am forever replacing a bit every Jan and June in the sales. Stone floor in kitchen hasn't helped!
