Reviews and Complaints

I'm adding my experience from today with Corelle exploding into tiny shards. I put a Corelle bowl on my kitchen countertop and didn't realize it was so close to the edge. It fell off onto the kitchen floor, which is made of porcelain. The bowl shattered into a million tiny shards and traveled across the whole kitchen. I was barefoot when it happened so my daughter had to throw me a pair of shoes to put on so I wouldn't cut my feet walking out to get the broom and vacuum. Took me an hour to clean up, found shards on top of the kitchen table (about 15 feet away from where the bowl fell) and on the chairs and underneath the oven and refrigerator, none of which are near the counter the bowl fell from. These bowls are the devil incarnate. I'm thankful the shards didn't fly into my eyes or in my face.

I ordered a set of Corelle Handcrafted Stoneware Dinner Plates last May. This past year 3 plates chipped. Corelle replaced them. Recently the last plate chipped and Corelle said it had now been over a year and that they would not replace the last original plate that chipped. I believe the original box of Dinnerware plates were defective. I am disappointed that they would not replace the last original plate that chipped. I bought the plates in May 2022 so it has now been 14 months. I believe that Corell should stand by their claim that their products do not chip or break and if the product does, the company should stand by their word and offer a replacement.

I was just sitting at my computer and heard a LOUD bang in my kitchen. So loud it scared my two cats bad and me. There it was the plate on the floor with cat food in it all over the place. In million little pieces. So I looked around how did that happen? Looked to see if something fell on it nope. All day was on my mind so google it. So they really can explode crazy!

I loved my dinner set but did not know that if they are dropped they explode, i brought these are they say they are chip proof but tonight my daughter dropped one and it exploded into tiny pieces everywhere through the whole kitchen, it went in her face and all through her hair, it was so loud. I now feel unsafe using my dinner sets as i brought this as it was safe for my children. I do not recommend this product as this is very dangerous

Good morning,

I purchased the Corelle Classic set online from Walmart June 20, 2022. I put two pieces of bread on a salad plate for breakfast. Suddenly the plate exploded with shards going out in all directions. I feel grateful that I was wearing my eyeglasses.

Please email me if you need more information.

Thank you.

Best,

Just had a fairly new (we have had them almost exactly 2 years, bought new) plate completely shatter into a gazillion tiny SHARP shards when dropped from the height of a 5 or 6 year old holding it at about low chest height. (my short for his age 7 year old was carrying it) It spread thru the hallway and into a nearby room as well as part of the livingroom near the hall. My son has a small cut in his foot, but luckily that is it (we picked him up and removed him from the shards immediately) but it could have been much much worse.

It was not a far drop, and it was on medium hard wood floors, not tile or anything super hard

Exploding bowl, you could actually hear a real explosion sound as my nephew was about to serve himself rice when the bowl exploded in his hand. Not sure exactly how but is caused him a cut where he was bleeding proufiously to the point of passing out do to him being sensitive to blood. He went to urgent care and his cut was deep, it cut all the way to the muscle.

I purchased the Corelle Splendor 12 piece service for 4 set. I bought these thinking that they would last a long time and I was also pleased that I could buy additional pieces to add on to this set. I also changed my color scheme in my kitchen to match the red in the dishes. Sorry to say that I am very disappointed! I have been using them for less than a year and the colors are starting to fade. Now I need to invest in another dish set.

Not for the first time I managed to drop a Corelle dinner plate last night. This time while trying to dry it for further use. What happens upon impact is breathtaking! The dish doesn't simply crack into a few large pieces like a ceramic or porcelain plate but instead literally "explodes" into tiny fragments that cover a 360 degree circumference. I know that sounds questionable but the reality is that the pieces are found all over the floor and manage to reach even the furthest corners of our kitchen not to mention fragments that reach the counters some 36" above the floor. In addition and to our horror most importantly, our fourteen year old dog was laying several feet away and managed to get covered in the shards which we had to gently pick out of his fur and then get him out of the fragmented mine field. It also managed to get into a pan that I was preparing for the addition of chicken which thankfully was still in the fridge. This is not an isolated case with our dishes which unfortunately has happened on several other occasions. We have finally decided that since accidents will happen that the Corelle is really too dangerous a product to risk having around. I know that Corning is well aware of their products propensity to "explode" upon impact and don't know what they could do about it. Replacing with more Corelle is not an option. Perhaps a little long overdue re-tuning of the process might be called for. Why there is no class action suit over this product is really puzzling. I guess it takes maiming some one before it really gets their attention.

I microwaved a few small cut up bites of noodle casserole for only 1 minute, using a 2 yr old, solid white, square shaped Corelle salad plate. A minute after it was done cooking, I heard an explosion & the sound of breaking glass. Not knowing the source, I opened my overhead microwave and found large pieces of broken glass along with very tiny bits of shattered glass that fell out all over my gas stove top. If I hadn't let my food sit in the microwave for that extra minute, after it was done cooking, it likely would have exploded in my bare hand. I'm shocked and angry to learn, as stated by many on this site, that this has been a frequent and on-going problem. Now, I'm afraid to use any Corelle, including my set of baking dishes. I can't donate my Corelle because of the risk it poses, so I am discarding all of it.

Hi i bought corelle dinnerware set long time ago now i notice that one bowl has no design its all plain can i purchase just one bowl with the same design so i can still have one complete whole set? Il send a picture of the design. Please help and thank you very much. Please advice how i can purchase, i bought this set long time ago and have not use it yet.

My bowl broke however it was unbreakable and was told that even if you hit correlle crockeries with hammer, they cant break. Kindly look into the matter urgently

I was warming rice in microwave for 2 minutes. Heard an explosion, stopped the microwave with 37 seconds left. We have put Corelle plates, bowls and platters in the microwave numerous times, but I for safety reasons will have to toss them.

Recently I purchased Corelle plates 24 of them from your Outlet in Mississauga outlet at Heartland centre. It is is less than a month and I unable to believe that your product quality has been badly compromised. It is toxic and we have ingested them not knowing it.

Before I put it on on social media to educate people on your product thought would contact you first to get your response on this.
Please contact

While holding a small Correlle bowl it spontaneously exoloded in my hand. It is a miracle that I was not seriously injured. I was holding it upside down over a sink of dishes with warm soapy water talking to my son getting ready to wash it. Thankfully my face was turned away from the sink to chat. A very loud explosion happened like a bomb going off. Shards went everywhere. Thank you Jesus for protecting me! I only had one small cut on my thumb on the opposite hand that was not holding the bowl. Most of the shrapnel fell into the sink but there were shards all around the sink and countertops. I am staying in a rented cabin so I'm not sure how old it is. These dishes are a serious safety threat and need to be recalled immediately. I won't be touching this brand with a ten foot pole.

I opened my sealed box from Meijer in Monroe MI and was missing two mugs from the corelle signature 16 pc dinnerware set (they grey one). It says I get four mugs. I dont know how to return it as I started by opening and washing them. I just want my two mugs. How do I get the other two? This is not fair the box was sealed. Thats false advertising. I took a picture of my box. It makes me upset. - April

It exploded in my hand just now in pieces! I didn't drop it! I just took it out from the refrigerator and opened the plastic wrap which was covering the food. I was shocked to see it exploded in my hand. Fortunately I didn't open the plastic wrap fast. The open side exploded, but the side my hand was holding didn't explode because plastic wrap was still covering it. What if it was my kid who took this bowl out?! Someone could be hurt! No more Corelle products in my household! It is not safe! I bought 5 bowls from Target six months ago, and I am going to throw all those out!

My corelle bowl broke and shattered. I was not expecting any of these products to break now my set is incomplete. I was putting the dishes on the dining table and this bowl slipped and broke. The only reason I bought these products is because it claims to be break resistant.
I have taken a picture that I will attach.
I am living in Uganda and bought the bowl from India

Just finished making myself a sandwich put it on the plate the doorbell rang the cable TV guy was here to help me with my TV service nothing hot on the plate just the sandwich with bread lettuce and tomato and mayo and bacon.
