Corelle Simple Lines Square 16-Piece Dinnerware Set, Service for 4 Review
My husband and I registered for two sets of these for wedding gifts. We did a lot of research on dinnerware and what is durable and lasts through the years. Also doing an online registry, we wanted to make sure all the dinnerware arrived in one piece. Lots of people recommended Corelle. I was a bit of a skeptic that plates could be glass, look nice, AND be nearly indestructible.
I agree they were not necessarily packed very well for shipping when we received them, but we received them without any chips/cracks/breaks, so we must have been lucky. We somehow ended up with four sets instead of the two we had wanted, but we liked them so much, we kept a third set in case of big dinner parties or having back ups in the very unlikely event that we break a dish.
The square shape and the simple black lines design definitely give the set a more “modern” look. The dinner plates are really large. I usually find salad plates to be less useful because they tend to be small, but even the salad plates are large enough to be used for several things. The bowls are a good size and depth for salads, cereal, soup, etc.
The thin and square design of the plates makes for very efficient storing space! But don’t be fooled…thin does not = weak. We haven’t had these plates very long, but I haven’t ever felt like I had to be careful in handling them, either. I have a feeling they will last for many years to come. I hear the biggest problem with Corelle is that you get sick of the pattern before you ever actually “need” to replace your set!

Corelle Simple Lines Square 16-Piece Dinnerware Set, Service for 4 Specifications
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. The Simple Lines pattern presents a white background minimally graced by several swooping thin lines of black. The effect is at once stark yet artistically appealing, creating a dinnerware pattern that can be used for everyday, year-round dining or saved for special occasion entertaining.
Like all Corelle dinnerware, Simple Lines is made of laminated layers of glass that produce incredible strength while being very lightweight, thin, and stackable. Moreover, because the enamel pigments are fired onto the dinnerware, the design won’t fade or scratch off over time. 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
