1.0 out of 5 stars Nothing like the original :-(, December 8, 2007

Farmer's Wife (Central California) - See all my reviews

This review is from: CorningWare French White 6-Piece Cooking and Baking Set (Kitchen)

I've owned French White for years and years, and they were the first casserole dish I always reached for. We had a mishap, broke my 10+ year old large oval casserole and replaced it with a new full set.

What a disappointment!!! CorningWare has changed something in their process or raw materials. The new dishes have tiny little "pits" in them that allows water to penetrate underneath the glaze. It looks unsightly when serving. The heft and feel aren't the same. Neither is the quality. You can tell the new pieces, as the bottoms have a ridge molded into the base. The older pieces are completely flat.

Using the new large oval dish, my adult daughter removed a full dish on lasagna from the oven and set it on a room temperature (burners turned off)stove top to cool. The dish shattered into pieces, and we had to throw everything out. CorningWare sent a replacement at no charge. The new dish has the same defects as the one that shattered.

I've been shopping at thrift stores and have managed to find older pieces. So disappointing the manufacture has cheapened/changed what was once a fabulous can't-live-without product.

3.0 out of 5 stars not your mother's CorningWare, January 25, 2008

Be careful with the new CorningWare (as well as the new Pyrex). It is not the same quality as what your mother used to use (and may still use). The new stuff is OK for refrigerator and microwave use. Oven and freezer use is risky. The stove is definitely out. This set is probably worth the ten dollar sale price, but not more than that.

2.0 out of 5 stars not too good, February 20, 2008

me in hawaii (honolulu, hawaii) - See all my reviews

This review is from: CorningWare French White 6-Piece Cooking and Baking Set (Kitchen)

I understand the negative reviews. I bought a french white CorningWare set from someplace else and I, too, am not pleased. The glass lids don't even fit right on the bakeware. There are gaps between the dish and the lid. I don't use them as much as I thought I would.
