Product Insights
The Modern Utensils Set Of 16 from Simons Maison is a fashion-driven, affordable ($39 CAD) flatware set with a runway-inspired wood-grain finish and thick textured handles that provide a secure grip and ease for arthritic users, backed by Simons' 184-year heritage. However, buyers report the plastic handles chip and dent with minimal use, the wood-grain texture looks artificial, the finish is glossier and duller than online images (particularly for the beige variant), the set lacks small forks and has impractically small teaspoons, sharp metal edges may require filing, and hand washing is necessary to prevent dishwasher damage. This low-cost pick offers a dressy look for casual occasions like cottages, RV trips, or picnics, but its durability and design trade-offs make it unsuitable for daily use or formal dining.

- Stainless steel grade
- The utensil heads are made from 18/0 stainless steel, an alloy with 18% chromium and no nickel, which is less resistant to rust and staining than 18/10.

Everyday meals with a modern table accent
These stainless steel utensils are meant to add a chic, modern accent to everyday dining, with easy-care upkeep. The merchant lists them as dishwasher safe, though dishwashing may cause premature wear, and some customer feedback recommends hand washing instead to help prevent potential warping or looseness of the plastic handles.[1]
Rustic flatware for cottages, RVs and picnics
Shoppers use this 16-piece utensil set for casual dining at the cottage, in the RV, or at picnics. Based on customer reviews, the rustic wood-look handles complement outdoor aesthetics, and the set suits settings where relaxed charm matters more than fine-dining polish. Reviewers also noted that minor damage isn't a worry in these casual settings.[1]
Easier mealtimes with arthritic or grip-limited hands
For people whose grip is limited by arthritis, a customer-reviewer reports that these utensils' thick, textured handles give a secure, comfortable hold that doesn't slip while eating. Reviewers overall say the handles are easy to hold even with arthritis, though some found the utensils bulky or the small spoons too tiny to be practical.[1]
Affordable starter utensils for a new household
A budget-friendly 16-piece set that reviewers say works well as a starter kit for new households, with a stylish look that belies the low cost — some note it's affordable enough to buy multiple sets. Keep in mind the set lacks small forks, so you may need to supplement with other cutlery for a complete place setting, and the plastic finish can look cheap up close at formal gatherings.[1]
Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Modern Utensils Set Of 16: Choose this if you want a 16-piece stainless steel set — four forks, four knives, four spoons, and four teaspoons — with thick cream plastic handles for casual settings like cottages, RVs, or picnics, or for a secure, comfortable grip if arthritis or limited grip is a concern. Reviewers describe a solid feel with satisfying weight, though durability is mixed: some sets endure years of daily use while others develop dents or break early, and the plastic finish can look cheap up close, with colors often appearing duller than online photos. Hand washing is recommended since dishwasher use may cause premature wear, and the set lacks small forks for a complete place setting.[1] | Colourful Utensils Set Of 16: Choose this if you want a 16-piece stainless steel set — 4 forks, 4 knives, 4 spoons and 4 teaspoons — with olive-green riveted handles and polished working ends for a chic, modern accent at the table. It is easy-care and dishwasher safe, though dishwasher use may cause premature wear, so keep the pieces away from heat sources. Note that no salad fork is included, so plan to buy one separately if you want a full place setting; customers who used it everyday reported it as surprisingly sturdy and well-made.[2] |

These are honestly pretty great!
These forks feel nice in the hand and are easy to clean. I have not had them very long so I can't comment on how durable they will be long term. The small spoons are a little bit too small in my opinion.. but the forks are quite nice.
Très jolie!
Mais attention ne va pas au lave-vaisselle.
Terrific Buy
Bought this set for my son's apartment, very nice quality for the price. I have not been a Simons shopper but i am now in my quest to support Canadian stores. No, they cant deliver overnight, but they have some great products at good pricing, so im changing my shopping habits.
Bon produit.
Pour l'instant cela me semble solide.

Impressed!!!
Wow - these exceeded my expectations! I was eyeing a similar (but very expensive) brand that was way out of budget, and I’m so glad I gave these a try instead. They look far more expensive than they are and have a nice weight to them - light, but not flimsy. I was a bit nervous about the light colour staining (pasta sauce!), but they clean beautifully and are totally dishwasher safe. Honestly, such great quality at an affordable price - I love them!

I have a set of red utensils bought at Simons about 6 years ago. They have worn well but I wanted another 4 place settings. The new ones are even better quality and the rivets mean the red plastic won't move. I am amazed how exact the colour is to the original set. As usual I am very impressed with Simon's quality and excellent tracking and delivery.

Déception modèle imitation bois
J’ai retourné ce produit. La couleur était aucunement semblable à la photo en ligne. Plutôt beige/brun très fade et imitation bois peu réussie. Les commentaires étaient si positifs que je me suis rendue en magasin croyant que j’étais tombée sur la mauvaise boîte et même constat en personne. Par contre, les autres couleurs sont plutôt attrayantes.

Corrects, sans plus
Corrects, sans plus. Les manches ont une texture très plastique qui laisse une impression de couverts de mauvaise qualité. Nous les utilisons pour le pique-nique. Je doute fort qu'ils durent longtemps.

Bonne qualité, jolis mais gros. Trop épais. Je suis déçue mais ils n'étaient pas chers. Aussi, il n'y a pas la petite fourchette.
In love with the set!!!
Beautiful accent and easy grip. Not bulky. I prefer to handwash these to preserve the quality.
I love my latest purchases
I’m so happy with the cutlery set. I have severe arthritis in my hands and the handles make them easy to hold. I’m loving the bunnies and carrot decorations. They are a wonderful addition to my Easter decor.

Great Cutlery
Great cutlery, well made, looks good and has that retro-vibe that’s so popular right now. Price was right too!
Well Made and comfortable to use.
We started using these right away. Comfortable in the hand and the knives have a good cutting edge. There is only one size of fork, but we can live with that.

Pictures make it appear more like real wood, but in person it looks very fake and plastic unfortunately. Item was returned.
Looked nice but too bulky for hands
It looked nice but upon handling them the fit was not good, to bulky for some of the hands. returned it.
Looking good!
I really like the style of this set! Will just give the rustic touch I wanted on my Christmas dinner table this year! Only one thing, I find the size of the little spoon too small, it is like for people with very little mouth. Overall I am happy and would recommend this set! Fingers crossed they won’t deteriorate too too fast because of the dishwasher.
Beau look !
Les petites cuillers sont vraiment trop petites. On croirait des cueilleurs d’enfant.

I bought these for outdoor use. They are a good quality for the price. I wash these by hand. The only shortfall is that the teaspoon is small - more like a demitasse.
