Does anyone know if the company has addressed the quality issues cited? Are more recently manufactured sets proving to be any sturdier?

Quality issue not fixed. Stay away from this model.Purchased one end of last year, it snapped within 2 months.

This product is defective. The consensus seems to be that the earbud will detach from the headband within a few months of daily use. This is what happened to me.

I received a replacement from the company and the new one is just the same as the old model... Does not look like they have addressed the quality issue.

I purchased this set as a gift, so I am unaware of their durability. I hope you are able to find the answer you are looking for.

I've had no problems with mine. I would suggest to send them back for a replacement; I am extremely pleased with the quality.

Not that I've seen, but ours have held up pretty well. There are some other little building sets that come with the foam pieces, but I haven't seen them by themselves.

They are not defect. They are used so they are cheaper than brand new set. Thanks

I'm not sure. I gifted them. However, with my older set, I don't remember them being flimsy. They were similar to a new deck of cards. I also purchased the masters edition and these cards were crisp, even hard for me to shuffle. Had to divide the deck. I hope this answers your question. For me the prices were reasonable as I have seen the regular phase 10 for 9.99.

Hi... yes we have it oudoors and it's holding up very well. So far, I love this set.

Can't say for sure. I have several of their castor sets that I have with at least 400 pounds on them that are moved frequently and have not had any failures.

I'm not sure of the concerns in the question. Checking for stainless? Does "checking for squareness" suggest product concerns? I initially confirmed the entire set against my saw table, which I trust, and found all to be accurate.

The chairs are not flimsy. Very sturdy and I am very pleased with my set. The first table was dented and Amazon reshipped a complete new set.

No...but I've looked on the page and have seen a few OTHER complaints concerning durability. I have on the other hand heard of good success with contacting the Bolse people. Ask for a new one.

Honestly, the set works well for me; however, the chairs have a lot of flex. In your situation I would consider something sturdier.

I really appreciate your honest feedback. We need something sturdy and that can withstand a lot of abuse, so I'll keep looking. Thanks!

Marble works seems sturdier, but I haven't seen recent Marble Works sets to accurately compare. The set we had growing up is still in amazing condition and it got/gets tons of use!

I have not had that problem with the set I purchased back in March 2014, sorry.

The handles seem sturdy enough to me. I haven't had any issues with the handles. Although, somewhat recently I dropped one of the smaller knives and it snapped at the blade.I would still recommend the set, though.

I have had not had any issues with the set I bought. I have owned them for almost a year now.
