Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Corelle Impressions 20-Piece Dinnerware Set, Service for 4, Thymeless HerbsCustomer Review: Not perfect but still overall good buy Summary: 4 Stars
I had several criteria when I started looking for dishes. 1) Made in USA if possible. 2) Relatively durable. 3) No lead or heavy metal concerns. 4) Pattern or design won't detract from the aesthetic of the food. 5) Won't be terribly upset if I break one due to high cost. 6) Not too heavy to handle. This set is not a bad fit for the criteria. The plates and bowls are made in the US. The mugs are not. They are known for durability. Using the internet to research, no lead concerns. This pattern is a bit busy but not overwhelming. It does have a just a touch of lavender and yellow in some of the herbs which is nice. The plates and bowls are a friendly size - not too big, not too small. The weight of the dishes is excellent if you experience issues with your ability to grip. They still seem very strong without being so terribly heavy. The cost per place settings isn't prohibitive. Some of the other reviewers remarks about the outline of the design and the fill-in of the color is a bit off on some of the plates is true. The bands of color that encircle the plates are a slight bit wavy in a spot and don't follow the outline of the plate perfectly. I bought 2 sets and both had these issues. I also bought the Corelle Impressions 20-Piece Dinnerware Set, Service for 4, Heirloom Bloom which I rank at 3 stars because this lack of tight registration in the application of the print is more pronounced. I wish that the facility and the company that makes these now cared more about that particular imperfection and would make an effort to do better. I would pay a little more if they would fix that and make glass mugs here instead of stoneware mugs sourced from China or Thailand. At least that would alleviate the concern about lead or other heavy metals. Nothing was broken upon arrival.
