Product Description

Amazon.com Review

Displaying the latest in contemporary aesthetics, Corelle's Square Round line consists of square plates and bowls with rounded corners, delineated round centers, and subtly lifted rims. As its name implies, the Pure White pattern leaves the square shapes pristinely white and unadorned, thus suitable for year-round entertaining and dining. The beauty of all-white pieces is their ability to mix-and-match with solid colors or boldly decorated dinnerware.

Like all Corelle dinnerware, Pure White is made of laminated layers of glass that produce incredible strength while being very lightweight, thin, and stackable. This 16-piece set is comprised of four of each of the following: 10-1/4-inch dinner plate, 8-3/4-inch lunch plate, 22-ounce cereal or soup bowl, and 12-ounce porcelain mug. While sudden changes in temperature should be avoided, Corelle Square Round is safe for the microwave, oven, and dishwasher, and is covered by a 3-year warranty against chips and breakage. --Ann Bieri

5.0 out of 5 stars Selling for $49.95 at our local Walmart, September 12, 2007

This review is from: Corelle Square 16-Piece Dinnerware Set, Service for 4, Pure White (Kitchen)

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.

I really like the look of these square dishes. Switching from stoneware to Corelle was a good decision. They take up much less space in my kitchen and it's easier to carry a whole stack of them with my arthritic hands.

Because of their smaller size, we use the lunch plates more often than the dinner plates. But we miss having the smaller bread & butter plates, so I ordered some plain white round 6 3/4 inch plates. Disappointed that we couldn't get small square plates, but the round ones will be OK.

The 22 oz. bowls are larger than most. The slight lip on the rim helps to remove them from the microwave without getting burned. Corelle doesn't heat up like stoneware.

Also disappointed that the mugs are NOT Corelle glass, but porcelain. They feel nice in your hand but could tip easier than most mugs.

Overall I really like these dishes and would buy them again!

While I love the set...the plates are Pure White, but the cups are not. The cups are an off-white. Not an exact match.
