Good cutlery make? Viners?

25 replies

I want to treat us to some good cutlery in the sales. We’ve always had really crap cutlery and I want a good, grown up set (I am 46!).

I’m thinking of Viners because that’s literally all I know because my parents had it!

Any other ideas?

Robert Welch every time!

@Rainallnight I love Robert Welch. Not cheap but good quality

I love my Judge cutlery. It’s lasted years and it’s reasonably priced. Harts of Stur is a good site to look at various brands on.

Just ordered an Arthur Price set I’ve had my eye on which was massively reduced day - Highgrove

I have 2 lots of Arthur Price - best set and one we use for everyday

Get some that are all one piece.
I got two sets the same 27 years ago, still using them.

We've had a Viner's set for the last 12 years of everyday use. Has been through dishwasher thousands of times. WMF set for best but that rarely gets used due to kids.

Mine is Arthur Price. I got it in TK Maxx, so might be worth a look?

My Stellar cutlery is still going strong after 20 odd years.

Arthur Price. They have a very good factory shop in lichfield Staffordshire . Worth a visit if not too far away from you

Isseywith3witchycats · 26/12/2021 15:20

Viners is excellent my set lasted for about 15 years (all in one stainless steel) i only gave it away as my partner and i moved in together and he had a huge cutlery set which is Solingen the new set is lovely good weight looks good and washes over and over again but isnt a cheap set

AnotherMansCause · 26/12/2021 15:23

Viners is good, I've had mine over 20 years & it still looks nice.

OrangeBlossom28 · 26/12/2021 15:34

Robert Welch for definite.

SoMuchToBits · 26/12/2021 15:36

WMF. Have had mine for about 16 years now and still use it all the time.

toastofthetown · 26/12/2021 15:36

I have Villeroy & Boch and really like it.

RumJerrySailorRum · 26/12/2021 15:37

Viners is made by Oneida so search for that.

I've got a Viners set we got as an Engagement present 30 + years ago. TBH though the stuff from IKEA is a nicer weight to use, the Viners feels flimsy to me.

I do think it's one of those brands that produces quite a range of different qualities though.

IbizaToTheNorfolkBroads · 26/12/2021 15:46

WMF - wedding present 21 years ago. Still
Looking good.

Woofydogg · 26/12/2021 15:50

Oneida here. 15 years old and still going strong!

SW1amp · 26/12/2021 15:52

Robert Welch

The original set is 20+ years and looks new, and it’s still really easy to get additional bits for it - where the hell do teaspoons disappear to..?

vinoandbrie · 26/12/2021 16:01

Another vote for Robert Welch! I’ve had for many years and still love it.

Samanabanana · 26/12/2021 16:05

Another vote for Robert Welch! So well balanced. I like their kitchen knives too

Nanasueathome · 26/12/2021 16:05

I’ve got Alessi cutlery
Beautiful

Arthur Price... fantastic value at Boundary Mill outlet if you're near one.
