CORELLE DISH WEAR

[ Edited ]

I know this discussion has been talked about for many years, so sorry folks here we go again as I did not pay attention.

 

I am tired of  lifting heavy dishes in all kinds of fancy square, octogan and you name it whatever sizes available I have purchased over the years.  I am not a Chef nor cook but now it's not only that it's this hefty ceramic weight on top of it in all sizes of dishes that feels like stone bricks - done.

 

So I picked one up at Publx  called "Corelle" to give it a try, Wow I'm impressed. Today I purchased a salad plate and a little pasta bowl I would say last week.  Weightless it was and wonderful. Easy clean up too and not sticky.  This was the best  of all.

Would you purchase a set of 4 for this Corelle dinner wear?  Thanks.  I found it great after purchasing 2 pieces of this after hearing it about it for so many years,

 

This one is called  pure white "crystal"?? Not sure.  It is white.  Bet I can find a set on Amazon.  Thank you for your help.  

 

As long as it does not show scratches I'm all in with this brand the little I do cook. Thank you.

just keep in mind if you drop a piece it shatters in millions of small pieces. Last time I dropped one I found slivers on the floor for months. That's after washing the floor and vacuuming many times.

@Pink123   Nope!  At this stage in my life I mostly eat off of fancy Dixie paper plates that can go into the microwave & counter top oven on "warm" settings. 

 

My Pfaltzgraff dinnerware is for company & paramour.

We have used Corelle for many years I am very happy with the set we have. We have had it for close to 15 years 

Stop being afraid of what could go wrong and start being positive what could go right.

I use Corelle for myself and for my two cats. I just ordered four " soup"bowls for them over the last week. As someone noted, they do smash into a gazillion pieces when I drop them, but they are great for me, any lunch visitors, and my cats.

@Pink123 .  I have been using Cornell's since I got married.  1975.

I am still using my second set.  They are lightweight and I like the pattern I have.  But like one person said, when it drops, it will shatter into a million pieces.  What can I tell you?  I do not want to use heavy dishes at this point in my life.  So go for it.  You will enjoy them.

I've used Corelle since I got married, love it. Dropped several over the years with no problem until I dropped a dinner plate on it's edge that caused it to shatter. My current set, Country Morning is 20 yrs old & still looks great...if I had to replace it I'd buy Corelle again.

I inherited both my mother's AND grandmother's CorningWare©.   Some smashed when it hit the floor during the 6.7 '94 quake.   Otherwise, the stuff is indestructible.
