Million Prizes Falls Short: My Disappointing Experience with Winter in Moscow Utensils

summarizeEditor's Summary

I was really stoked for this year's Million Prizes collection, but unfortunately, it didn't quite live up to my expectations. The Winter in Moscow utensils I got are a total letdown. The long handles are a nice touch, but that's where the good stuff ends. The snowflake design is only on one side, which is pretty lame. And don't even get me started on the thin gold plating - it's basically nonexistent. I'm not impressed with the quality of these utensils, and I wouldn't recommend them to anyone.

Million Prizes Falls Short: My Disappointing Experience with Winter in Moscow Utensils
This year's Million Prizes collection was a major letdown, especially compared to last year's awesome dishes and textiles with snowflakes. The opulence of previous years just wasn't there. I was expecting a lot more from this year's campaign, but unfortunately, it didn't quite live up to my expectations.
I also participated in a 10-day mini-marathon on the Active Citizen platform, but the prizes were pretty lackluster, to be honest. I've been a part of the platform for a while now, and I've always been impressed with the quality of the prizes. However, this time around, it felt like they were just going through the motions.
Today, I want to show you the dessert tableware set I got as part of the Winter in Moscow campaign. I was excited to try out the new utensils, but unfortunately, they didn't quite meet my expectations.
I picked up my order at the Million Prizes pickup point, which is super convenient for me - it's located at the Moscow Fair on Orehovsky Boulevard, near the Krasnogvardeyskaya metro station. The packaging and presentation were top-notch, complete with a cardboard pouch. The two spoons and two forks were attached to a white cardboard backing using plastic clips.
The red snowflakes seemed out of place - wouldn't blue or white snowflakes be more fitting? Or maybe they turned red from embarrassment? I'm not sure what the designers were going for, but it didn't quite work for me.
The material is stainless steel AISI 304 and made in China. The gold plating on the spoons and forks looked flimsy, and I could tell it was just a thin layer. The design gave the impression that the utensils were either artificially aged or nostalgic for our former leader.
Each handle had an engraving that said 'Million Prizes', and a hole where a snowflake was attached using a ring. The color scheme was only on one side, so the snowflake wasn't complete, as my husband put it. The snowflake was the only thing that hinted at winter and New Year's holidays, and the 'Winter in Moscow' promotion.
I liked the extended handles, especially the spoons - they were super convenient. With a regular spoon, it's hard to get the last bits of jam from the jar, but with this spoon, my fingers stayed clean and there was no mess left in the jar. The length of the spoon and fork was 15 centimeters.
Washing these utensils was a bit of a hassle - I was always worried that I'd accidentally knock off the snowflake decoration with the sponge. But for now, everything was intact. I guess it's time to put the seasonal items away.
By the way, the mug from Pinterest wasn't as great as it looked on the website. I was expecting a lot more from the design, but it just didn't quite live up to my expectations.
I was pleasantly surprised by the gingerbread cookies that come with every order - last year, they even threw in four of them! The Million Prizes dessert set, 'Winter in Moscow' (2 spoons and 2 forks), gets a solid 3 out of 5 from me. The gold plating is a bit flimsy, and those snowflakes will probably fade over time.
