When we got married over 30 years ago we were given very smart looking cutlery to be used on Shabbos. Over a long time period this expensive cutlery set is ruined. We have tries using silver polish on the cutlery but that made it worse.

It looks like we need to buy a new Shabbos cutlery set. I want to buy cutlery that looks elegant for Shabbos but can be put in a dishwasher and not get ruined by doing so.

What cutlery would you buy that can be used regularly in a dishwasher and will still look smart in years to come IY"H?

I got Mikasa cutlery a year or 2 back and they're holding up well so far. Can't comment on whether they'll last 30 years though

I bought a set of stainless steel Wallace cutlery on Wayfair about 8-10 years ago. It has a very nice basket weave handle and a good heft in the hand. They go in my dishwasher and come out looking great. I happen to have a beautiful set of silver, but the upkeep was getting too difficult. I also bought dishwasher safe Shabbos dishes at the same time. It has changed my cleanup and freed up my Saturday nights.

Oneida has a guarantee. My friend sends back her set some years over pesach to get refurbished.

Stainless steel washes best in the dishwasher. Make sure it is 18/8 or 18/10 steel, lower quality can and will rust.

Get good quality stainless. Fewer issues than silver plate and you don't need to polish it.
