Deep plates, sturdy enough

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The plates are nice and deep and hold a good amount of food. Nothing leaked and they kept their shape but I did feel like I needed two hands to ensure my food wouldn’t fall off once the plate was loaded up. I’d say for a picnic or barbecue they’re a good choice, but be prepared to use two hands if items are on the heavier side. I also like that they’re compostable.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently used these Hefty Extra Deep 8.6 in. plates for a family BBQ, and they performed impressively well. The extra depth makes a huge difference — no more sauce spills or food sliding off the edge. They’re strong, durable, and held up nicely even with heavy portions. Also love that they’re microwave safe and BPI compostable, which adds a nice eco-friendly touch.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like the size of this plate and the depth of it . Plate does not get wet or saggy. However, I would like that plate to be more sturdy, because ir bends if food in there is a bit heavier.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Like the name says, this is a hefty hefty plate! I used it for breakfast and then for my snack plate and it went around the house with me with no issues. My warm toast did not hurt the integrity of the plate. It's a great deal. It's not super thick yet it's super hefty!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really love the eco friendly advantage that this product offers! The design is less sturdy than I prefer but considering that it is biodegradable it’s worth the sacrifice for sturdier options. I love that each plate has the eco friendly label . It held up perfectly for our last family cook out !! I definitely recommend this product!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We typically only purchase paper plates for gathering,but these are actually very good. The sizing is perfect and fits food efficiently without getting too heavy and bending, very durable, which surprised me because they are a bit thinner than I'd like. Maybe just be careful with a steak and potato. Overall, i like them, and they are eco-friendly with is a plus in my book.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall, I’m pleased with these Hefty 8.6” paper plates. They’re a convenient size, hold up well for most meals, and have a pleasant, simple appearance that works well for casual dining or gatherings. Plus I enjoyed the form and the design. However, I did notice that foods with higher moisture content—like salads or cut strawberries—tend to soften the plate over time, making it a bit flimsy. It’s not a dealbreaker, but something to keep in mind if you're serving juicy or wet dishes. Otherwise, they’re a solid choice for everyday use.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I had high hopes for these plates but they were not as thick/sturdy as I was hoping they would be. The raised edge is a great feature for saucer items like wings, but the plate needed to be thicker for me.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] the Hefty Extra Deep 8.6-inch plates exceeded my expectations. These plates are strong and durable, and the size is perfect for serving heavier meals without bending or leaking. The added depth is a fantastic feature, as it helps keep sauces and side dishes contained, making them ideal for everything from sandwiches to pasta. They're also microwave-safe, which is super convenient for reheating leftovers. I appreciate that they're soak-resistant, meaning no sogginess even with moist or greasy foods. One of the best aspects is that they're BPI-certified compostable, so they're environmentally friendly when disposed of in a commercial composting facility.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The depth of these plates is great! I did think they were a little flimsier than I hoped, but the depth did help some with that. The size was great, even though not the largest size, it was plenty large for a full meal even and definitely perfect for children!

Stylish, Sustainable, and Practical – A Solid Choi

4 out of 5 stars
cherylg62_1660 - 2 months ago

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently had the opportunity to try the Hefty Compostable Plates through Influenster in exchange for my honest review, and overall, I was quite impressed. These plates feature a clean, modern design that strikes a great balance between simplicity and style—making them suitable for a wide range of occasions. One standout feature is their extra depth. Unlike standard disposable plates, the raised edges do a fantastic job of keeping food securely on the plate, which is especially helpful with saucier dishes like baked beans or sides like potato salad—perfect for casual gatherings like backyard barbecues. Another major advantage is that the plates are BPI Certified Compostable. It’s reassuring to know that they’re a more sustainable option, especially when compared to traditional disposable dinnerware, which can often feel wasteful or environmentally unfriendly. The 8.6-inch size is very versatile and practical. In fact, I tested it with half of an oversized breakfast burrito, and it only took up a small portion of the plate—leaving plenty of room for additional items. The price appears to align with similar plates with similar functionality. The only drawback I noticed was the durability. While they performed well overall, the plates felt slightly flimsy, and I wouldn’t feel confident holding one with one hand when it’s loaded with food. Despite that, I would still recommend these plates for casual events, picnics, or any setting where convenience and eco-friendliness are priorities. I’d gladly use them again in the future.
