Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Corelle Cherry Blossom Square 16-Piece Dinnerware Set, Service for 4
Customer Review: Things you should know before buying
Summary: 5 Stars
I bought this set after reading both the pro and con reviews, and after having bought another Corelle set that was a disaster. Here is a summary of my impressions after having just received the set:
1. Some people complained that the Cherry Blossom image was too faint. It is true that it is not as dramatic as what you see in the photos, but it seems to be completely appropriate for a set of dishes. By no means would I call it "faint."
2. In terms of the quality of the Cherry Blossom image, it was fine on the set that I recevied. Consistent from dish to dish and the printing was well-aligned. Perhaps they had a quality control issue in the past, but it was fixed when I received my set.
3. I was surprised -- and am concerned -- that the flower image appears to be printed on TOP of the final finish of the plate. You can actually feel the rough texture of the printing. I wonder if the printing will wear off after much use? The description says no, but I'm not convinced.
4. The dishes are definitely heavier than the Corelle with which I am familiar. This set is part of the "Ultra" line, which is their premium line. Some people said that you would hardly notice the difference, but I definitely do. You may or may not like that. Personally, I think I like the lighter (and thinner) material, rather than what you get with this set. But, once again, I think that is personal preference.
5. As others have pointed out, the cups are definitely NOT the standard light, Corelle material. If you care about that, don't order this set. The cups are called "porcelain" in the description, so watch out for that if you consider another set.
6. Even though the cups are porcelain instead of the standard Corelle material, I feel that the white color and the color of the flower image match the rest of the dishes just fine. It is not a perfect match, but is close enough in my opinion. Looks good. If you don't like it, maybe just buy some plain white cups to go with the set.
7. The sides of the plates do have more of a slope to them that the standard round plates with which I am familiar. I don't know that I care about that ....yet. You can see the area that is sloped in the photos.
8. The set was well packaged and came without any breakage. Very compact. That is what I like about Corelle. As others have said, they don't take up much room in the cabinet, because they stack nicely and are thin.
9. Overall, I am satisfied with this set of dishes so far. If I had it to do over, I might have looked for a set that is the thinner, lighter material, but these are actually more presentable than the thinner stuff for more "formal" dinners. And I have absolutely no faith that the cups are going to hold up with time, since they are not the traditional Corelle material. Personally, the cups are less important to me than the plates, so I don't care if I have to replace them with something different, later. I don't like having things be too "matchy-matchy" anyway.
10. A word of warning if you are looking at other Corelle dishes. Do NOT buy the dishes that have "Stoneware" in the description, if you want real Corelle. They are heavy and not the same material that we have come to recognize as Corelle over the past decades. If you want HEAVY dishes, you can consider the Stoneware style, but I would really encourage you to examine them in a retail store FIRST. The set that I ordered when I was poorly informed, showed up with lots of broken plates. Then when I read the reviews, lots of people said that the dishes were breaking after about a year. That having been said, Amazon gave me a full refund and paid the return shipping. Crappy packaging and crappy quality, but Amazon made it right.
