I had some years ago. They ended up chipped as hell. That's when I bought some halfway decent (not good, just not Target grade) steel ones that aren't stainless. I hone the ones I use most a couple of times a week and the rest of them on an as needed basis. I sharpen them as needed.

If your schedule and executive fiction allow for it then I highly recommend it. Ceramic is sharp as fuck, but not enough sharper to deal with buying a new one every time it chips.

Ceramic knives are kinda stupid yeah. But a ceramic "steel" to hone your metal knives works amazingly. And those don't chip, because they're round. They can shatter though.
