The Corelle dishes brand is very good. I heard of them recently as being on of the top 5 in the nation. They do not compromise their quality for any reason at all.
To the best of my knowledge no Corelle dishware is made of melamine. Melamine is a kind of plastic. Corelle dishes are made of a kind of glass.
Corelle stopped manufacturing the Corelle Ultra in 2008, according to my online research. If you are looking for heavier and more durable dishware made by Corelle, Target stores sell Corelle Pro. Shopworldkitchen.com sells other types of Corelle dishes and has a link to assist you in finding outlet stores that sell Corelle products.
The Corelle Outlet store was established in 2013 ago to help people find discontinued or hard to find patterns on Corelle dishes and cookware. There are sites that list all the available Corelle stores.
These dishes are dishwasher safe.
Unlike most dinnerware, Corelle is unbreakable. I have used these dishes in the same conditions as regular dishes and have gotten some shocking results. For example, my regular plates would break if dropped or even banged together in the sink. My Corelle, although a bit dented and scratched never broke.
The Corelle coordinates can be learned about by visiting a kitchen retailer or a large retailer that carries a variety of cookware. The Corelle name in cookware is well known for its quality and these kitchen and cookware retailers have publications about the history of the Corelle brand.
The company known as Corelle sells many designs of plates and other livingware. These range from simple white dishes to patterned outlines and even floral patterns on the plates.
no, it is too fragile and has not been 'tempered' to withstand high temperatures. YES!! The Corelle website says that it is oven safe in a PREHEATED oven to 350 degrees. Ref: http://www.corelle.com/index.asp?pageId=28
Corelle is a great brand of tableware to purchase because it's very hard to break. These can fall down and they still will not break because of the great quality they are!
Popular brands in the United States that manufacture casserole dishes are CorningWare, Twiztt, Pyrex, Pyroflam and Corelle. These brands, except for Twiztt, are owned by World Kitchen.

This morning my son grabbed his corelle cup and poured a cup of coffee , grabbed the sugar and put into the coffee. All of a sudden he heard a pop and the cup exploded. Hot coffee and broken peices went everywhere, burning his hands and chest. I have used corelle since 1970 and never, ever seen this happen before.
