Corelle Embossed 16-pc set

Great set! – I bought three of these sets from Woolworths one month ago to replace lots of chipped porcelain plates, bowls and cups. The weight of each item is 1/4 that of the old set, which makes loading and unloading the diswasher much easier. They will also be ideal for the caravan or camping due to their light weight. They stack significantly smaller than my porcelain sets, which has freed up a large space in the cupboard. The plates and bowls are made in the USA. The cups are made in China. I like the cup size. Upon comparison with the same style at kmart I found these to be bigger and a more comfortable shape. Instead of grabbing a glass to drink from, the family and guests gravitate towards these cups, which I find odd, but they serve the same purpose. The cups are stoneware and not the same material as the plates and bowls, which better insulates hot liquids. I'm still getting used to using a smaller bowl. The food content is the same, but my old bowls were large. The set is called Classic Winter Frost White. Overall I am glad I made to upgrade to this brand.

Deceptive product & awful customer service – I bought a Correlle Bella Faenza dinner set few days ago. The mugs are just rubbish! Those ones that you may find in Kmart for nothing! Even their greyish white doesn't match the bright white of the plates and bowls and astonishingly they call it a SET!!! Doesn't a big brand such as Correlle know what a SET mean?! Yes, it does! They have included the cheapest ugliest mug in the set to deceive customers that they are getting a good bargain and to encourage them to buy the set even if they don't really need some pieces! (Because the set is apparently cheaper than buying individually) I asked the company to take the responsibility for this misbehaviour but they said just take it back to the store!!! I had spent so much time and energy for purchasing it and I needed the plates and bowls but I hated that I was treated as a stupid human being! I don't accept such a big name includes rubbish in its boxes and get away with that! FYI, the mug was not on display the day I purchased the set!
