Features:SturdyCut resistantCompostableMicrowaveableOne handed useTough on greasy foodsReasonable priceDoes not alter taste of foodNot from wood, rather, sugarcane/bamboo fibersIt’s a 9” plate, it’ll hold snacks, hot and colds foodsConsiderations:The outer rim of the plate is a tad flexible, with pressureNot the strongest, but they are strong and have good featuresHow had we received?These (125) plates arrived vertically stacked in a plastic bag, measuring 6” x 9” and several inches taller for that plastic bag.Weight?Each plate weighs about 18 grams and in total the 125 placed weigh in at about 4LBS and 6 ounces.Look and feel?These plates do not appear to be bleached. Rather, the plates have a very clean light creamy tan kind of look. The plates are as smooth as glass, within their interior, however, the exterior feels as if they have a lot of texture. Which does not detract. The plates do not alter the taste of those foods placed inside, including when liquids are involved. Even after greasy hot food, the plates did not materially soften nor alter taste within the time the food was eaten.Any flex?However, the outer rim of the plate is a tad flexible. The stiffness is in-between a paper plate and a Chinet dish, but still sturdy, so I am not taking a star off. These are made from sugarcane and bamboo fibers and are made in China.I tested the plate’s bend strength, by placing a concentrated (14) ounces of weight on top of the plate, in the outside of the plate. The dimensions of the weight were 3” x 3” by 1.75”. It survived, it did not fold down, but had some minimal flex, about .125”.Thoughts?Hot or cold, dry, or wet, these plates are nice, but we have had nicer more sturdier and durable plates, but those were not compostable.Made of?These 100% compostable, biodegradable, and disposable bamboo fiber and sugarcane (bagasse) fiber plates have no plastic or wax lining, they are unbleached, and were reported as being dye-free, gluten-free, plastic-free, cut-resistant, and oil-resistant. Which I would agree with. We would pay extra for these and would avoid Styrofoam plates.Resistance?Surrounding these plates being resistant to cut and oil, hot and moist foods may cause condensation to form at the bottom of the plates. When serving hot food on a wooden table, a trivet is recommended.ValueThe price is competitive with others on the marketMicrowavable?The seller indicated can, up 240 degrees with food on the dish.Sizing?These are a tad smaller; we would prefer larger if having more than three (3) items on the plate.We hope are thoughts were informational.
