Corelle Livingware Memphis 16-Piece Dinnerware Set, Service for 4 Review

If it was just the picture on the website, I might think it was just my computer screen.However, the box also shows a very bright blue mug and the colors in the plate too.When the box is opened, I found a lighter blue...not primary bright blue, more like a Williamsburg Blue.It is still pretty but not what I really wanted.The other colors are the same way...pictured as very bright but muted out of the box.

Another deceptive thing to note on the picture.It appears that the smaller plate is almost as big as the dinner plate.It is described as a salad plate...it is a bread and butter sized plate.I am not impressed with that.That being said the detailed description does state the correct dimensions of that plate.In a typical family-style dinner I really have no use for it.I would like a larger salad plate that is just the right size for the kids.

As others posted, I too wish the Memphis pattern would also be on the other complementary tableware.Lighter color issues aside I do like the pattern.I would only suggest that when one makes a purchase you realize the picture is only slightly deceptive.

I do like the Corelle name of products.With my kids learning how to set a table, I need something a little more durable.This will do nicely until they are old enough to be able to deal with china.

Corelle Square 16-Piece Dinnerware Set, Service for 4, Pure White Review

These are a nice size and the shape is also nice--has a smaller footprint than the round plates if you are cramped for cupboard space. They are made of the traditional thin Corelle material and are a more "shallow" plate--like the traditional Corelle plain white dishes.

If you like the square shape and want a Corelle set that is a little fancier in solid white that will dress up for formal occasions, you may want to consider the award winning Corelle Scandia White in Corelle's Ultra line.The Scandia White pattern has a fancier mold and the plates are a little deeper and thicker than this set.

The major difference in the Ultra line and this set is the Ultras are 70% thicker than the traditional Corelle and have three layers of "glass" on the finish instead of the one layer on this set--The Ultras have a glossier finish--elegant--and a little more weight.You can gather more info on the Ultra line at corelle.com

These are nice, but for the same price at Walmart, you can have the square Ultras.

I spoke with a Corelle rep on the phone and asked her about the difference between this set and the Scandia White set.She said she owns BOTH sets, but is planning to give her set like this away and only keep the new Scandia White set.

The local Walmart did not carry the Scandia White Ultra, but carries several other Ultra square patterns. They also do not identify them as Ultra, but they are Ultra.

Corelle has introduced serving pieces in the past month in the Corelle material that match this set. The matching pieces for the Scandia White pattern are made of stoneware.

This set will give YEARS of service and may be preferable for someone looking for lighter weight dinnerware. The lighter weight may be easier for children and elderly hands to carry and handle.This is a GREAT everyday pattern.

Corelle Livingware 16-Piece Dinnerware Set with Mug, Service for 4, Country Cottage Review

I selected this item from a shower gift registry. The store didn't stock it. I'd have to order it from them on line and then it would take up to 4 weeks to be delivered. Having made several other purchases through Amazon and my orders always arriving within a few days, I didn't hesitate to order two sets. The price was better than the local discount stores. The dishes arrived well packaged and in plenty of time for the shower.

Corelle Livingware Classic Cafe Dinnerware Set 16-pc. Review

The dishes came all in one piece (none broken or chipped), and they look simple and nice.Perfect for a family with young children.I would have given 5 stars but one of the smaller plates has an obvious flaw in the blue paint around the edge--a permanent smear.Other than that a fine set with cute coffee mugs.

Product Description:
Reminisce about a favorite roadside café over grilled cheese sandwiches and tomato soup, served with plates and bowls from this 16-piece tableware set. Crafted by Corelle for their Livingware line, the tableware set endures the tests of time while striking a nostalgic note with its classic black-and-white pattern. With service for four, each setting includes a 10-1/4-inch dinner plate, a 6-3/4-inch bread-and-butter plate, an 18-ounce soup bowl, and an 11-ounce stoneware mug.
To construct Livingware tableware, Corelle thermally compresses three layers of glass. The resulting product is lighter than other dishware, but more durable than conventional glass. The tableware resists cracks and chips with great success, while the lamination compression process combats stains, scratches, and fading. The mugs feature stoneware construction. The user-friendly plates, bowls, and mugs are dishwasher- and microwave- safe. Plates and bowls can warm contents in conventional ovens up to 350 degrees F. For the best care, avoid soaking the mugs for prolonged periods of time. Corelle discourages the use of abrasives or scouring on these pieces. Users benefit from the three-year limited warranty against breaks and chips. Manufactured in the USA and China, the 16-piece dinnerware set measures 11-2/5 by 10-3/5 by 10-3/5 inches and weighs 9-1/5 pounds.
What's In the Box
4 place settings. Each place setting consists of: 10-1/4-inch dinner plate; 6-3/4-inch bread-and-butter plate; 18-ounce soup bowl; 11-ounce mug. 16 pieces total.

Corelle Livingware Geometric 16-Piece Dinnerware Set, Service for 4 Review

The description for the Corelle Geometric dinnerware is confusing but the set is so fab it deserves all 5 stars.

Each 16-pc boxed set contains 4 of each - 10.25 inch dinner plates, 6.75 inch bread/dessert plates, 18 oz. soup/cereal bowls, 11 oz. stoneware mugs.(Being practical and not wanting to slop liquid all over the place, it's more like 12 oz. for the bowls and 10 oz. for the mugs.)

The pattern is done in a mocha brown, warm beige and cool celadon (a pale sea-green...I had to look that one up in the dictionary) on a bright white ground.And, all the dinnerware pieces have the pattern though, for some reason, the bowls are printed with only the mocha color.

The stoneware mugs are a vast improvement over the tiny teacups in the older sets.They are big enough for that java in the morning or a great cup of cocoa at night.My hubby appreciates the bigger handles.

Get a set or two of these in your hands for a cool 50s retro look.
