So I've been gathering some new gear for the coming season and I'm way more excited about these than a grown man should be lol

Those look nice. 4 place settings. Looks a lot like the set my wife got at Target. Ours are black. We found rectangular plastic dinner plates and purple Ball jars for drinks.

I just received my O grill 2000. I'll try it out here first before camping.

 My camper-only set of stuffs is becoming complete.

They are made by GSI and I found they at about 50% off at steepandcheap.com. I had been looking at the options at Target and Walmart but these ended up being cheaper in the long run. The only thing bothering me is that I have 6 of everything else but only 4 place settings for the silverware. Oh well lol

We had a set of these in blue many years ago. I would suggest you go ahead and double the set. Stash the extra two complete place settings. Our experience was that over time the pretty plastic handles became cracked and loose, sometime falling off altogether. This is not to say they are not well made, just that the handles are plastic and eventually the plastic becomes brittle and cracks. We used ours daily at home. Yours will be used less so should last longer, but I think having a few spares to replace inevitable losses (from all causes) couldn't hurt.  :)
