Review of Lenox Laurel Leaf Placemats

For a year, I have had a set of Lenox laurel leaf table linens in platinum (actually a little paler than in the picture above), and my feelings are mixed about them. They're certainly lovely and elegant, and stains come out easily after pretreatment and washing--even red wine and tomato sauces.

The only problem is that some of the placemats wind up wrinkled after washing, even when following the directions to wash but not tumble-dry them. It's as if the stiff facing inside them gets loose and bunched up or pleated, and no amount of ironing will fix them. Only half of the 12 that I started with are in their original shape, thanks to spot-washing and good luck.

So if you want elegant, not-too-expensive table linens, the Lenox laurel leaf napkins and tablecloths are great. I would just avoid the placemats until they are (hopefully) more reliably constructed.
