CaterEco Square Palm Leaf Plates Set (Pack of 25) | Dinner Plates | Ecofriendly Disposable Dinnerware | Heavy Duty Biodegradable Party Utensils for Wedding, Camping & More,Brown

We used these plates for two catered events this weekend. The plates are strong, and each is slightly unique with beautiful natural patterns. We got a lot of compliments from guests!I was concerned looking at other reviews about whether the plated would get soggy after a while but this was not an issue at all. We served pastas, salads and desserts with sauces on the plates, and there were absolutely no problems. (In fact, a week before the event, I poured tomato sauce and cream sauce and salad dressing all over some test plates and let them sit in my kitchen. The bottoms got slightly flexible after about 6 hours but never leaked. I decided six hours was quite long enough, so I stopped the experiment at that point.)We will definitely be using these plates at every future event!

I want so badly to rate this higher. I ordered 4 packages for an event and 2 of the packages look great - 5*. But they other two packages contain misshappen plates that look like they got folded up in the process, won't stack and need trimmed around the edges. I honestly cannot understand the vast difference in quality. If you are lucky enough to get the good ones you will love them. If not, they will still be usable.

I love these plates!! We used them for a western theme party and everyone thought they were so cool. They held up perfectly with hot foods and cold foods. Some of the plates are just the pale color (as you see in the photo) but the rest have the cool darker brown running through them just as shown. Everyone loved these plates. When the party was over, we used the leftover plates as kindling in the fireplace.

Great quality plates. Thick, sturdy and really cool looking. Bought them for a rehearsal dinner and people didn't realize they were paper at first. They dress up well with an elegant table setting.Will buy again.

I just love these! Some of them are less attractive than others (it's a natural product, obviously they won't all be uniform) but it was so worth it. We used them for our wedding, and had several left over to reuse for a cookout a few weeks later. It was so wonderful to just throw the plates into the fire pit, instead of hauling bulky trash bags out of our house and contributing to the land fill. They are very sturdy, I didn't have any issue with leakage (even the collards and saucy barbecue didn't soak through when the plates were left out for some time) or breakage. I can look past a few "ugly" plates in the bunch for such an economical and environmental choice. I cant say for certain, but I did shop around for a good while comparing costs of palm leaf plates and other similar materials, and I believe CaterEco was the best price I found.

I ordered a set to test with for my upcoming wedding. I had no issues with quality at all. They look and feel great and have been holding up well with dinner. For me personally, it's important that we have environmentally-friendly, economical tablewear that doesn't compromise on style. After doing some research, I decided on these plates. There was no expectation that all plates would look exactly the same. We've all seen leaves, right?It's not currently hurricane or monsoon season so I wasn't worried about moisture, mold or anything else that would normally affect natural/wood materials, including these plates.It will be incredibly humid around the time of the wedding. Knowing how these plates are made, what they are made out of and the climate where they are typically produced and stored, I will do the logical thing and order more than I need.I would definitely be upset if the plates were actually moldy and required returning but judging from the pictures in *most* of the reviews, there isn't much to be worried about. One reviewer was upset about the few inch variation in half of the plates! :) In the age of Amazon and Yelp, reviews are aplenty but not all can be trusted.

Got this for our Viking-themed dinner party, they're extremely good looking and unbelievably durable, I was even thinking to wash and re-use them!

Used these for our wedding reception - we wanted to have a sustainable event that was as environmentally friendly as possible. These were perfect and looked great. Guests may not have realized that they were compostable, but regardless they looked awesome and held up really well. And we felt good knowing we weren’t using plastic! Each plate has a different, natural pattern to them, which we loved. We tested them on a few diff types of food at home first to make sure they didn’t leak, etc. - at the wedding we served chicken (that had a sauce on it), salad, cheesey gratin potatoes, etc. and has zero problems w durablility of any sort. They can withstand and type of food from what I can tell - Would definitely purchase again.

Están de suuuper buen tamaño, se ven super lindos igual que las imagenes, y también estan resistentes, no se aguadan con la comida.Si son más caros que unos desechables normales pero valen la pena.

I held a family function with 20 attendees. Many commented on how elegant the plates looked and how sturdy they were. I served a complete hot meal, including a meat dish with gravy , and the plates remained sturdy. I felt good about the fact that they were totally compostible. I would definitely purchase them again.

Platos que ayudan al planeta y son perfectos para fiestas y que las personas tomen conciencia de cuidar el planeta y reutilizar la naturaleza, son de hoja de palma caída y son excelentes.

The plates are environmentally friendly, but there are ragged portions, where the dried palm leaves have loosened their binding.

Amazing! These plates are super sturdy and looked great at my dinner party, all my guest commented on how nice they are.
