I bought a Rochester set of ‘dishwasher safe’ cutlery as a housewarming present for my son and his new wife just before Christmas. After using the set twice my son noticed that the knives were stained. The forks and spoons were fine. Each time he used the set the staining/rust got worse. I complained to Stellar and was told to go back to Harts of Stur where I bought it. In short they were pretty useless and despite me speaking to various people they said it was not unusual for the staining to occur. Getting nowhere I went back to Stellar who like Harts said you had to dry the ‘dishwasher safe’ knives immediately they were washed or they would stain. I have had a set of cutlery for over 49 years and another very cheap set for over 25 years and neither has ever stained or marked! The knives are obviously a very poor grade of steel. I can’t believe that neither company asked me to send them the knives for their consideration. Very, very poor. Don’t buy anything from Stallar that claims to be stainless steel!
