If I can’t compost this product, it will end up in the landfill, so what is the purpose? I need to be able to put them with my recycle

No, this item is not "backyard" compostable. Do NOT toss it into your personal compost, it's not designed for that. These are rated as "commercially compostable", that is that can be broken down in municipal facility that has the proper technology in place. Sadly, very few communities have access to this as most compost facilities don't have the capability: "Currently, only a few hundred of the roughly 4,000 composting facilities in the U.S. have the ability to accept food scraps and a much smaller subset can accept bio-plastics." So for the great majority of users these would go in your trash bin. There is a decent summary written up here: Eater, "The Dark Side of ‘Compostable’ Take-Out Containers", Jan, 15, 2020.

does this item have a logo in the middle or is it the solid color?

Are the deminsions taken from the flat serface on the inside or over all lip to lip?

For the 9" and 7" that I just received, the dimensions are from edge to edge, including the entire plate, not just the flat inner part.

perfect size and very little bleed through of grease

I use compostable dishes almost all the time. These dishes are well packed, traditional round shape and good size. I sometimes double these dishes for a suacy type of meal to avoid staining onto table cloth and napkins. Dishes are strong and I have had no need to double for weight on dish. The natural color lends to a cottage style kitchen but I have used for parties because I have tried to increase my eco-awareness and am avoiding plastics. Priced competitively. Will be buying agan.

Pros: Large quantity Sturdy Leak proof Ordered these plates for a pot luck at work. Biggest worry is the plates not being strong enough to hold the food. Not the case here. We had people bring in stews and the plates held up very well. The stews did not soak threw the plate and weaken them. Not one person had a spill of any sort througout the meal. I had some stew, two chicken drums, noodles, meatballs with sauce and some egg rolls all on one plate and never was I struggling with me plays. Having 125 plates also makes sure you don't run out. Will definitely order again for the next gathering.

Great quality, but I should have been more careful reading sizing. A little smaller than we at the office required but great quality. They also took a while to get shipped
