How long will it take for these plates to decompose?

It takes about 60 days for the plates to biodegrade. Put them in a leaf pile or in your com poster...this is approximate

I have not seen any of our plates warp or any indicators of such. We have 6 of them and they get put on the bottom rack of the dishwasher. Do note though, as per the instructions, we do not put them in the microwave. I haven't seen or owned the non-divided plates, but I'd imagine they're thinner than these. These are very thick, but light, and once you hold, feel and use them the first time, you instinctively know they'll last a while through much punishment (dropping, washing, banging, etc). They're definitely worth it.

At least 1/2 hour. Couple of times a week. If you leave the plates in much longer than that the teeth will become very sensitive.

Exactly 167 years, 5 months, 28 days, 4 hours, 37 minutes.I'm kidding. I have no idea, but it would seem that with proper care they should last a few years. :)

Hello: They don't melt quickly. I estimate approx. 5 to 10 minutes. It also depends upon vaginal or rectal use.Hope this info. helps you.

If you maintain them and don't let them to built up with calcium before you clean them they will last up to four years. If you scratch the titanium plates by trying to clean them in the wrong way it won't last very long at all.

I would estimate a long time. They are well built and in some pretty good scrubbing sessions I didn't lose bristles or notice any deterioration.

If they are left to sit in place indefinitely outdoors, filled with sand, then I would expect them to eventually rot on the bottom. If turned upside down every so often to dry out, then they should last many years.

The plates can be reused....IF....they are washed as you would wash any good china.

Well, the plates were sold individually, but I don't remember them being that much. I think they were around $12 each when I bought them. It's been about a year now and they are holding up pretty well. Take care!

Hi ASC...I've had 3 sets of this dinnerware & though I don't use it for everyday, I have had no problem at all with scratches and mine are now about 4 years old. I do take care when I stack them but have never put any covering between. They are nicely heavy (I like that, some may not) so I suspect if one wasn't careful they might cause some damage, but I would think it would have to be from pretty harsh handling. I have been delighted with my sets & quite enjoy using them from time to time & especially at Christmas (that's why I got 3 sets). So far I've never had a piece chipped, cracked, or broken. And by the way, I'm in my 70's and can lift them just fine but if I was going to have a group of older folks to entertain, I would not use them to entertain buffet style. I find them lovely as do my company. No matter how attractive & fancy some of the paper or plastic plates are, I find they are generally not sturdy enough for other than picnics or backyard outings. Hope yours works as well for you as they have for me! Rh

They're made of thick guage wire, so a long time. As long as you don't just toss it around or have kids who bang it up on you.

No, you can't recycle If the plates are unused, then maybe your could They go in the green waste, or compost yourself. If you don't compost on your own, and your municipality doesn't compost, then they just go in the trash

I put them in the vents and took off the plates on plug ns and light switches and put them in there. You should start seeing dead ones soon, they eat it and die.

I think about 6 or 8 inches, it's been along time since I installed the plate.

The plates are filled with cement and they are vinyl coated. fairly durable for the price.
