Maxine keeps the decision simple: four complete settings, one good alloy, no ornament to argue about. Each setting carries a salad fork, dinner fork, dinner knife, dinner spoon and teaspoon, so a table of four sits down without anyone improvising. The 18/10 steel is the part worth noticing, since that grade tends to show up in heavier, dressier patterns.
Why the second number matters
In 18/10 stainless the ten stands for nickel. Nickel is what gives steel a warmer, deeper silver tone and holds corrosion further off, and it is the ingredient everyday flatware most often leaves out. Maxine keeps it, which is why the surface looks softer than the flat white glint of a chromium-only alloy.
Twenty pieces, four places
The box divides into four identical five-piece settings, so nothing is left over and nobody is short a fork. That sounds obvious until you have set a table out of a drawer assembled from three different sets and ended up with two salad forks for six people. Here the arithmetic is done for you.
Washing and putting away
Maxine is dishwasher safe, and 18/10 takes machine detergent without pitting or going cloudy. Load it with the handles down, run the normal cycle, put it away. The set is imported and arrives ready for the table rather than needing a first polish before anyone eats off it.
