Product Description

Amazon.com Product Description

Perfect for creating a nicely affordable yet truly contemporary table, this 16-piece Kobe dinnerware set features delicate yellow flowers that contrast nicely with the bright white base and the dinnerware's square shape. This 16-piece dinnerware set includes four complete place settings, each with a 10-1/4-inch square dinner plate, 8-3/4-inch square luncheon plate, 22-ounce square soup/cereal bowl, and 12-ounce porcelain mug. The dinnerware's exceptional durability comes from Corelle's unique lamination process that thermally bonds three layers of glass, resulting in lightweight pieces that resist chips, breaks, and stains. The set goes safely into the dishwasher, oven, and microwave and is backed by a three-year limited break and chip warranty.

5.0 out of 5 stars Corelle, Kobe, WALMART CHEAPER! Great Product., September 29, 2007

This review is from: Corelle Kobe Square 16-Piece Dinnerware Set, Service of 4 (Kitchen)

I've been living with dishes from the 99 cent store and thrift stores (hey, I live alone, I'm a clutz and don't want to feel bad if they break, and I use paper plates anyway...) I finally decided to get something nice since relatives are visiting (OK, I'm showing off, their kitchen looks just like mine did before this shopping trip). I've always admired Corelle, but never got any. I looked on line and found that even though the manufacturer seems permanently stuck in the 1960-70's as far as most of the designs, somebody in the company actually learned it is 2007 and designed a few pieces that look fabulous and modern.

I strongly recommend that you look in the stores (although Corelle is hard to find) before you pick a pattern. I was going with Simple Lines and hadn't even considered Kobe, but when I saw and compared it was no contest!

WalMart was $49.99 for the sixteen piece set and on line and at Target, etc. same thing is $69.99 up to $85.99 (plus shipping if you get on line, plus sending any broken pieces back, etc.) One of the boxes in the store "rattled" like some pieces were broken, and one of the cups in the two sets I bought was nicked and I'll have to return it, but I didn't really care about the cups a lot anyway, they just came with the dishes and bowls. The dishes look and feel great and wash up PERFECT! I expect raves from my guests and am actually trying to find another pattern called Cherry Blossom that is also in the square plate style. Looks very elegant as well as casual depending on the setting/placemat.

5.0 out of 5 stars Picture Perfect, November 7, 2007

This review is from: Corelle Kobe Square 16-Piece Dinnerware Set, Service of 4 (Kitchen)

I bought my first 16 piece set from WalMart a few months ago. It looks elegant and has the Corelle ease of use. When I take pictures of food, it looks really good against the white backdrop. The design is modern and not intrusive. The bowls with the simple green edge look really pretty. I just bought my second set on Amazon with a bonus set of 4 smaller bowls (plain white). It arrived in perfect condition.

We debated initially whether to buy the heavier Corelle Ultra line, but I actually prefer the lightness of these dishes; unlike cookware, where heavier usually means better,I think light works fine for dinnerware. I'm now retiring my older Martha Stewart stoneware, which definitely has a frumpier look and is much harder to use. For people who like to cook a lot and don't believe in paper plates, Corelle is a very good choice.

3.0 out of 5 stars made in china, October 6, 2010

This review is from: Corelle Kobe Square 16-Piece Dinnerware Set, Service of 4 (Kitchen)

I bought this because I was looking for dishes that were not made in China given recent issues with paints/contaminants from products coming from there. Corelle is "made in the USA" as their website proclaims--so imagine my surprise when the cups were a) porcelain not the usual material for corelle dishware and b) MADE IN CHINA. The plates/bowls were US made, though, as expected.

The set was definitely pretty, and I'm sure functions well, but since it was not what I wanted, I returned it. No problem with returns, Amazon made it easy, so that was good.
If you are looking for Made in the USA, buyer beware!
