    I bought these due to the durability I thought they would have for a lasagna dinner Birthday gathering and guess what they leaked. How embarrassing. Payed tooo much for that. Will never purchase again. Would like a refund actually.

    Hi! No one likes a soggy party, and this one is on us. Chinet Classic® plates and bowls are made from pre-consumer recycled material and pressed into form. We love using recycled materials, but it means we are constantly re-evaluating and optimizing the manufacturing process. Because of that, you didn't get our best product, and we apologize. We are working to correct the issue. In the meantime, feel free to contact a representative by email at MyLife@mychinet.com or call 1-800-847-4129. Thank you!

    I have been using these plates for many many years. No in the last year chinet plates are thin, bent out of shape out of the bag, don't have flat surface on the entire center and more importantly they soak through and change shape with the least amount of moisture. Why did you ruin something made the same way for who knows how many years?

    Chinet Plates going downhill

    I have for many years lived eating off these plates most days. Now - every bag is bad. Plates are stained in some cases. The plates are not as thick as they used to be - every one is wrinkled and bent out of shape - they with the smallest amount of moisture are useless and soak through. What have you done to these plates that HAD been made the same way for decades??

    I thought these would be the best. I was mistaken. Oils, juices or gravies are easily absorbed into the plate. You need two at a time. :-/

    Exactly what I would expect from a Chinet paper plate. Strong, durable & takes quite a bit to soak through. Really the only paper plate to buy when having any BBQ or party where you're looking for quick & easy clean up! Also, obviously much more environmentally friendly than plastic.

    I have been using Chinet plates and hot cold cups for years, but it seems like they have changed the product! The plates quality is poor and the hot cold cups leak and absorb the liquid into the cup. I will discontinue to buy the product and seek a better brand.
