Corelle Reviews

I loved this glass cookware, except when it cracks. It's hard to get replacement pieces that fit exactly, & so I always look at resale shops! The reason I love this cookware is because I always feel it is safe to eat the food I cooked in it... no aluminum, & no other strange pieces that were scraped off the bottom like from non-stick pans.

This kind the bowl is not Break & Chip Resistant. It happened to two times ready. I was paid more than $10 for the big one. Only a few days it cracked by itself on the dish rack and now another small bowl same thing happen today. Make me feel like bad luck! I took a picture. Keep it. Want to show everyone.

I just purchased a brand new set of square Plates (two sizes) and square bowls. They are very attractive designs BUT the edges of the plates are significantly warped. For the price that one pays they should not arrive defective.

I received Corelle’s Snap ware 38 piece set as a gift for Christmas. Unfortunately one of my lids had a broken snap, I contacted Corelle through their easily accessible website and told them the issue, they immediately sent me not only the lid but the coordinating dish. Could not be happier with great customer service. I really love the Snap Ware, it is so easily stored and in general a great product.

Ordered dish set Dec 7. Shipping label created Dec 9. No movement a week later. Called Corellle. They blamed UPS not showing up. UPS says pick up not scheduled. Still no shipping Dec 29th. Called Correlle. They lost the dish set in the warehouse! So they lied about UPS. I believe they also lied about losing the shipment. When I placed my order I used a 20% off coupon. I don't think they wanted to honor the discount. Supposedly will be refunding my money after a month. This was a X mas gift so it hurt a bit more than a regular purchase. Correlle lied or lost shipment. Lousy company at best.

Very frustrated with my current order. I ordered 2 sets of dinnerware on 10/28/19, got a order confirmation email saying it'll take 5-7 days to receive order and they will send an email when shipped. 7 days passed and I never received an email that my order has shipped (I should of had them by now). So I contacted customer service and I was told they were out of stock and are waiting to get more product in. OK, I understand that but they should have sent me an email or SOMETHING to notify me. I should not have to hunt down my order. Also the lady was very nasty over the phone and never once apologized. Don't be in customer service if you can't be nice. Anyways, today is 11/15/19 and I still have not gotten a shipment notification nor received my order. I am a new homeowner and have been surviving on paper plates. Thanks Corelle. :)

Just got my foot incised and a sliver of Corelle dish shrapnel dug out. Bowl broke when it fell on the kitchen counter at a certain angle from a height of less than a foot! Shattered into shrapnel everywhere. I accidentally brushed on one sliver and my finger got cut badly. Corelle should think of making knives instead. We threw the whole set out. Can’t believe they’re selling these.

As a consumer, I would stay away. I will be contacting the Better Business Bureau.

We bought our Corelle over 25 years ago. And we still have almost all of the original pieces. When replacing a piece, I’ll search for the vintage Corelle. They seem to be more durable. Be aware, Corelle is a tempered glass product. The older Corelle won’t break as easily as most glassware, but they will break if they hit a hard surface hard enough. They are not unbreakable...

They advertise they are unbreakable but it’s not true. My cereal bowl fell on the tile floor and broke into hundred of pieces. I’m still cleaning up. I’m afraid my grandkids will accidentally step on some broken pieces and will hurt themselves. Is there a resolution to this problem?

When my husband fell with his plate in his hand, the plate shattered into over a hundred tiny pieces. I had know idea they would do that. Very difficult to clean up. I am disappointed. Glad it wasn't my grandchild.

The OLD Corelle from the (80s and older) lasted for years and years without any chipping. Yes, they shattered if they did break, but that was rare. We bought new designs 15 years ago and all the pieces were chipping away at the edges. I thought it was because of the dishwasher. Three years ago we threw them all out and ordered 2 new sets for a service of 8. We got rid of the dishwasher so the new dishes have always been washed by hand in the sink. Within 3 years almost every piece (from the plates to the bowls) has chunks or long slivers missing from the edges. I have found long slivers in the dish water from these dishes. I think it’s time to say goodbye to Corelle. I used to love them. Not anymore.

We purchased a set of Corelle dishes based upon their supposed reputation for durability. This turned out to be highly false! Within a month and a half, my husband was washing a bowl and it slid out of his hand to land about six inches into the sink. It broke into multiple round bands. We contacted them and they sent out a replacement. Before the replacement could get here, another bowl slid into the sink during the wash and EXPLODED into oodles of tiny pieces. We watched chips and shards fly OVER my husband's head from just dropping it (again, about six inches or so) during washing.

I purchased 2 sets of the 5 piece pasta set. One set arrived with a shattered dish. When I went to open the box I got cut with the tiny bits that are scattered all over the box. Let me tell you, it is sharper than glass and very dangerous. I told Corelle and they sent me another set. Now, what I am going to tell you is most disturbing: I placed a piece of toast and scrambled eggs in one of the plates, let it cool, then when I approached the plate (I didn't even touch it), it cracked and a small sharp edge went into my finger!!! WOW, I have never seen anything like this. I have always had ceramic and stoneware without this type of incident ever. Corelle wants to replace the dish... ARE YOU SERIOUS, I don't want Corelle ever again, these dishes are defective and very, very dangerous. They won't refund my money!!!

I own a lot of Corelle dish: dinnerware for 14, 2 pie plates & 8 casserole dishes, and owned another pattern before this current one. However these new cereal bowls get sticky rims after washing them in the dishwasher. I have turned the heat down and only load them on the top rack, but this doesn't help. The plates and larger bowls don't get sticky and are washed on the bottom rack. I have to scrub the rims of the bowls to remove the stickiness, it's not dirty, but who wants to feel sticky crud on your cereal bowl?!

I ordered Corelle soup bowls advertised to hold 22 oz. The bowl did not have a capacity of 23 oz. It only held about 15 ounces. When I called to complain I was told to look at the bottom of the bowl to see the size.Sure enough there was a sticker ostensibly from Corelle they said 22 oz. I measured the amount of liquid that filled the bowl. It was only 15 to 16 oz. I called Corelle directly and was told by customer service that the bowl I had was considered to be 22 oz. even though they knew it didn't hold that amount!!! I was caused considerable inconvenience in trying to get a refund. More importantly HOW CAN CORELLE MISLEAD AND FALSELY ADVERTISE THEIR PRODUCT? I hope this will help others from being fooled. Furthermore I hope Corelle will STOP false advertising.

Corelle dinnerware, although chip and break resistant, are absolutely terrifying when they do break! My 9 year old was carrying a bowl to the sink when he tripped on a step stool, dropping a cereal bowl. The bowl shattered into hundreds of glass shards. He then fell into the shrapnel cutting his hand and nicking the tendon in his finger. He is now in a cast after 8 stitches and a trip to the hand specialist. I think parents should be aware of the danger these dishes can be if your child drops them! I wish I had known!

We wash the Corelle in the dishwasher, and the pattern has almost worn off. This never used to happen with Corelle. I am very disappointed. My "Iris" Corelle now looks like it just has tiny spots on it.

Bought a new Corelle dinnerware set today that matches some dishes I've had for 40 years. First I noticed that the pattern (Cornflower) was fuzzy and indistinct on the new plates where it was crisp and clear on the older dishes. Further, I noticed that the pattern was a poor decal on top of the plate surface whereas the color pattern is embedded inside the older dishes, under the clear top coat of glass. One reason I went for Corelle was that dishes I've picked up over the years the decals all disintegrate after a couple of years in the dishwasher. Then I saw all the warnings about not using the dishes on the stovetop or in the oven whereas my old stuff has survived decades of such use (but not set directly on an electric "burner". That was enough for me and I've given up on Corelle as a quality dish manufacturer.

These are the WORST cutlery I have ever have. I have only had them for 5 months and I don't even own a dishwasher, they are all hand-washed, I live alone so I use them 1/2 the time. They have all cracked open and the plastic is chipping off at the base-into my food! Crooks are selling this set for $60 on eBay... I got them for $30 at London Drugs. DON'T BUY THIS CUTLERY!

Corelle dishware - Just had one of these shatter violently into shrapnel in the microwave cooking a pot pie. Good thing the door was closed or someone could have been injured. These are a hazard. Now I need to buy new dishware.

My mom bought me 2 sets of everything Corelle (for 8 persons) 15 years ago for my first boat as it had an unbreakable reputation. We have used it a lot every summer and last night one plate fell on the wood floor and broke in many pieces. As everyone is always barefoot on boats and after reading all the other comments I wonder if I will replace everything by melamine dinnerware...

Corelle had been my go to everyday dishes for years - recently bought a new set and many pieces have chipped in ways that leave razor sharp edges and are dangerous. Recently had 2 plates explode on the hot stove sending flying sharp shards all over the kitchen and into the living room and dining room. Luckily no one was hurt. These are dangerous dishes and we will be replacing them ASAP.

I purchased a dinner plate, side plate and bowl of Corelle dinnerware at my local Home Hardware store about two months ago at a reasonable price and was quite pleased with the product especially its nice clean-looking, smooth and glass-like shiny surface. However, last night while preparing dinner I experienced the most bizarre incident with the side plate. I was breaking up a tin of corned beef onto the plate using my new ceramic paring knife when the plate spontaneously jumped up from the counter breaking into two pieces and also breaking the tip of the ceramic knife. I was flabbergasted. I've never experienced anything like this in my life. I was not putting any pressure on the plate with the knife and the meat was very soft, so what gives. I don't own a microwave or a dishwasher and I've never placed the plate in or on the stove or oven.

I purchased a set of dinnerware dishes about 2 months ago, dropped plates I was taking out of dishwasher. Two plates EXPLODED, large and tiny shards covering my kitchen. I'm cut and because in a wheelchair have two flat tires. I don't want replacements as am throwing it all in the garbage. I had a set many years ago and was fantastic but this is now dangerous junk. It doesn't just break, it explodes and should be off the market!

I had ordered what I thought was a place setting for 8 people by ordering (2) sets of dishes... Turns out it was a place setting for only 2 people which I paid $119.98 (free shipping). I was very surprised when I received the box and there was only place settings enough for ONLY 2 people! I called customer service and went back to their website and sure enough it was how it was worded that I did not correctly read it. I was shocked at the sticker price but I'd really liked the dishes. So I reordered over the phone as they currently had a sale going on (it was buy 3 pieces of the same and get 1 free). Because of the cost I only ordered 3 different sized plates (bread, salad & dinner) for 4 people (no Chargers, no bowls, no mugs). My total was $119.93 for 12 dishes.

I was putting dishes away out of my dish drainer. A small saucer was wet & stuck to a pan, it fell right at my feet & SHATTERED INTO A MILLION SHARDS!! I mean EVERY corner of the kitchen had tiny shards!! It took over an hour just to get it all up! I have 2 cats & was worried about them stepping on a sliver. I couldn't move when this happened because I was barefoot, so my husband swept his way close enough to hand me the broom. This happened to me in the 80s but when the plate hit the floor it did the same thing but the glass kept jumping in different directions, it was like something out of a horror movie!! I figured because it was old.

I bought Corelle 6 Plate set from a Corelle retailer in Kolkata (India). They have been marketed in India as UNBREAKABLE. Recently during dinner a plate slipped from my nephew's hand to the floor and broke into several pieces. If this is the quality of product Corelle offer to Indian market then it's unethical. India is just for market expansion. What about quality and brand name?? Quality product should be shipped to India and all 2nd and 3rd world countries. It's a request, our government has open the market to assure better lifestyle and living standard of its people. We buy these products in hope that they will be better than the local brand but incident like this suggest otherwise.

I bought the last set of Corelle dishes at Walmart. I did not like the pattern even, but my family always had China and Corelle. I do not like heavy plates. When I opened them up, glass was everywhere. The only thing not broken was one blue cup. It took hours to clean. I have chronic pain and wasn't planning on cleaning. My hand was cut. and I was very upset. I wrote Corelle. Not looking for anything but to vent and make sure no one else had this happen. Only mentioned my handicap because it was hard to clean up. I received an email asking for pictures and a receipt. No "Are you OK?"...or "Was anyone hurt?".

I have had Corelle dishware for 30 years. I can’t believe I used the stuff for so long!!! Corelle dishes are unbelievably dangerous. Once they drop they shatter to tiny shards of glass. Some minuscule pieces are impossible to see!!! This is very dangerous for babies and pets. I freak out every time a Corelle dish explodes. You can’t put shoes on cats and dogs. Beware. I am finally throwing all my Corelles in the garbage. It’s total crap!!! Should be taken off the shelves!!!

I feel I have to report on the Corelle dishware that is not suppose to break. After two dishes that had fallen and broke into a million pieces. I am blessed that no children or my dog were near the break because pieces were thrown everywhere in small slivers. It took quite a while to clean up the dish to make sure we got all the parts. I will not put another Corelle piece of dishware anywhere in my kitchen.

Last night a Corelle dish fell out of the dish drainer onto a wooden floor and exploded sharp pieces 15 feet in every direction. It didn't fall that far and the floor isn't that hard. I spent an hour carefully cleaning it up and still suffered several cuts on my hands. Several years ago, while rinsing a bowl I bumped a the faucet and it exploded the same way. I ended up at the ER for several sutures in my fingers and still have no feeling in one finger! I don't care what the company says. It very dangerous and should be banned. I would never have Corelle dishes with children. After last night I'm done with Corelle!

We now have our second set of Corelle dishware. There is a distinct difference with this second set... Purchased when our family grew through the years. We bought Corelle because my family always had Corelle and it lasted and was known for its durability. Well, this second set has been quite a disappointment... Lots of chips and broken plates and bowls through the years. I am happy to have found the reviews from other consumers confirming my decision... I will not be purchasing any Corelle in the future. Decent dishware is now dangerous dishware. It is surprising to me that no lawsuits have been filed yet...

I'm a long time fan and customer. But just today my 6 year old was sitting with a Corelle bowl in her lap. The bowl had strawberries and blueberries in it, and it just cracked into three pieces. She didn't drop it. No these aren't new dishes, can't even tell you when I bought them. But the fact that it was just sitting there and it broke. Scary.

I began purchasing Corelle this month as a first time customer. I thought they were somewhat pricey and went to the 'Outlets', to compare costs. Holy moly! The prices at the 'Outlet' store were twice as much as those in the local store. What? Also, the prices in the 'Outlet’ store did not jibe from single items to boxed sets. There must have been 30 or more dish patterns and types of dishes. This just raises manufacturing costs... keeping things simple, aggressive advertising, consistent pricing, and relying more on 'word of mouth' through excellence in product keeps cost basis down, customers more satisfied, and everything else that follows. One more thing, I actually took a set of dishes back when I realized the coffee cups were ceramic material. If I wanted ceramic, I would have gone ceramic.

A 13 month old mug cracked at the handle. Once upon a time you could count on the quality and service of Corelle and today was disappointed when they denied replacement. According to "Sharon" in the customer service department of World Kitchen, which is the sales department of Corelle, mugs are manufactured in China, therefore mugs are not covered by the "Corelle" brand.

I have used Corelle dishes and cookware since it was invented. I rated it a 4 instead of 5, because I learned that the current production of Corelle has a "watered down" version of materials in manufacturing, probably "made in China". This may open up the possibility of explosion in a very hot microwave. I understand that the modern versions are less safe to use in the microwave, but I like the lightweight and break-resistant qualities of the dishes, which of course, go from oven to table to refrigerator. The appearance and versatility of the product make it a staple in any kitchen.

I heated up some food for 45 seconds. Set my plate on the counter and walked to my fridge. The plate exploded into so many tiny pieces. Shards and slivers of corelle everywhere. Luckily my dog, who was standing by the counter, wasn't hurt. But, I had to comb his fur with a lice comb to remove all the glass from his fur. I spent a long time sweeping and mopping and sweeping and mopping, trying to get all the shards.

This is for Laraine of Clermont, FL. I also have had my Corelle bowls to have a problem with small shards of glass peeling off the edge. It started after I like you started using a Bosch dishwasher. I had a Kenmore before without this problem occurring for 13 years. Could it possibly be the related to the dish detergent? I have been using Finish Powerball as recommended by Bosch.

A recently purchased Aqua Tile Corelle dish popped a shard off the rim without even being touched. It lodged in my sofa and I ended up with a trip to ER and stitches. World Kitchen - Corelle, seemed to be very responsive to my initial emails and pictures of my injury. I honored their request and sent them my plate and a description of the incident. Two months later they inform me their Quality team has decided it wasn't a manufacturing issue so they will not reimburse me for any of my medical expenses. They claim the plate must have been bumped at some point, and this caused the shard to come off the plate.
