Bought my first Temptations. Hope I don't regret it.

I don't care that much for the patterns, but they got me with the pack-n-go set, since I carry food back and forth to my oldsters every day.

I hope it is durable and cleans up easily.

I think you will like this set. I have several similar ones from long ago, and I love being able to transport food this easily. What I think some people fail to understand is that if your set arrives with a problem, call Temp-tations directly (don't use the email on their site, becasue they don't answer them), and they are more than happy to help you. If a piece is cracked or broken when it arrives, they can usually send out a replacement free of charge, and usually don't require the damaged piece to come back.

Also, if the set is defective, and you wish to return it to Q, you don't have to pay return shipping for damaged or defective products. Mark your return slip as damaged, and watch your statement to be sure they credit you correctly.

A couple of important things that they don't stress on air. Do not to soak your ceramic. You can fill it with water and set it on the counter if you want to soak a burned on mess, just don't immerse it in water and leave it. The unglazed portion on the bottom will absorb water and cause it to craze or crack over time. Also, always put your dish into a cold oven and bring the food, dish and oven to temperature together to prevent thermal shock. If you do these things, it greatly reduces the chances for problems.

I hope you get a great set, and I hope you enjoy TT as much as I do. What color did you choose?

Thank you, mominohio. That's some good advice. I chose the black. My kitchen is tan with accents of brown and white here and there, but my stove and appliances are all black/stainless. I wanted to keep it as simple as possible. All my other dinnerware and ceramics is white.

It sounds like the black will be beautiful for you. It is one of the few colors I've never tried. I think it is so elegant looking, and when people put their pictures on Facebook with the black, it always looks so high end. Please post when you get it and let us know how you like it.
