Good for quick meals
Great for a quick clean breakfast or lunch. Well priced and ecofriendy but does not hold up to a barbecue. Does leak oily substances after about 30 minutes (see picture).

    I was looking for square plates that were disposable yet look good.
    This is an Amazon brand, and past experience has shown that they really stand behind the house branded products they produce and sell. So I was pretty confident that if these didn't measure up, I could get a refund.
    Speaking of measuring, I wish I had because these are slightly larger than I expected, but they are very nice plates. They're sturdy and much nicer than the average compostable plate.
    They aren't cheap, so they won't be used as everyday paper plates but for a special occasion they're perfect.

    I love this product!! I would usually purchase my paper plates from Sam’s Club, but they were sold out so I came to Amazon to purchase some and I’m glad I did! These plates are wonderful, they are sturdy, a nice size, and do not melt if they are left in the microwave too long. You get a great amount for the price also. I will be purchasing them again!!

    We stock these for use in a large office setting, they are generally used by employees in the break room or for meetings/events where food is served. They are sturdy, attractive, consistent in texture and color and I have not heard any complaints regarding their quality. These are commercially compostable, meaning they are intended for facilities where they can be broken down by high temperatures/rapid mixtures, etc... so probably not suitable for backyard compost. I would recommend a less expensive paper option unless they will be disposed of in a jurisdiction with adequate composting facilities. Technically, a non-shiny/non-waxed paper plate is just as compostable in Seattle's commercial facilities as this item, but every municipality is different.

    These are considerably pricier than paper plates that are not advertised as compostable - so get your money's worth by making sure they are disposed of correctly and that you live in an area where they can be commercially composted.

    We use these small plates for feeding our cat and they work great. Much easier of a mess to clean up than using a plate that needs to be washed. Overall, for their purpose, they hold up decently. They do soak up liquids, however, but that isn't a make-it or break-it for us. They work great overall.

    I like that they’re compostable, but—they leak. If the food has any degree of moisture/oiliness, it soaks right through the plate and onto the table/your hand. Bummer. Won’t be buying again.

    Update 6/23/19: For the quantity and cost, blue diamond is cheaper at Costco.

    UPDATE:
    So far these have held up very well. From greasy pizza to wet fruit. Kids paint to glue. I have not found a better price for the amount you get. I did find one other brand "members mark" that gives you a few more plates for the same price BUT it appears the depth of the plate is more shallow on that brand. I cant 100% prove that since they only have 1 picture. I will stick with these in the mean time. Amazon basics - Solid amazon buy for the price!

    Left to Right:
    Hefty blue diamond
    Amazon Basics
    Chinet
    These are about the same size as chinet and abt the same strength. I prefer the blue diamond but lately they are not selling them. Price is ok for the amazon plates and you can toss them in a compost pile.
