"The original break and chip resistant glass dinnerware. Trust that it can stand up to the rigors of everyday life and still look great. 3 year replacement warranty against breaking and chipping!
Corelle takes pride in its manufacturing excellence. Vitrelle glass is made and thoroughly quality tested in the USA in Corning, NY. Corelle is manufactured with nearly 70% of recycled glass. Additionally the design pigments used are food safe and FDA approved."
3 layers of Vitrelle Glass
The 3 layers of glass are thermally bonded together by laminating a top and bottom layer of clear skin glass to a core center layer, which creates dinnerware that’s lightweight but strong, thin but nonporous.
Break & Chip Resistant
Vitrelle is a unique, tempered glass that is resistant against breaks & chips. The special glass makes versatile Corelle dinnerware as thin and translucent as fine china, yet dramatically stronger.
Space Saving
Vitrelle is lightweight and thinner than typical ceramic plates—when stacked, Corelle takes up less space in cabinets than conventional ceramic plates and bowls.
Microwave Safe
Vitrelle is microwave safe and even safe for oven use up to 350 degrees.
These quotes/illustrations are from Amazon.com, not sure if the 3 Year Guarantee applies in the UK, but I'd assume so?

Interesting to see that Amazon also has a few of these on offer - the Folk Stitch and Geometric sets are £36.39, Memphis and South Beach are £39.99 - Country Cottage is £54.99!
I still haven't opened my set, only learned about them thanks to another HUKDer months ago, so I can't take any credit.
Yes, I have reposted the links and jpegs from two previous posts, but it saves me doing it all manually myself. And I have posted many other different Deals :stuck_out_tongue:

First came across Corelle dinnerware when we hired a campervan in New Zealand 6 years ago. We were so impressed we bought a set for our own caravan in the uk , it's far better and much more durable and longer lasting than melamine sets. Also now changed everything at home to Corelle due to its versatility.
