    I love both and buy both! When family comes to town, I pull out the Ikea plates. They're so in expensive I have at least 10 of each bowl and plates, so everybody gets a plate. I use Corelle for cereal because I like the deep sides for cereal. Both are beautiful and have a place in my life. They match nicely together due to their similar appearance. You can't go wrong with either one. Thanks for showing the comparison. I wondered how alike they were and now I know!

    I was stunned when I first saw Corelle because it is practically unheard of in Europe. I rented a house in the US and it came with this and I couldn't get over how neatly and thinly it stacked. Perfect for storage in boats, caravans etc. Or just tight apartments. So I bought a full set for myself in Europe. I've had a few breakages but so far most of them have survived fine for close to 7 years.
    But if someone is doing a similar product for a fraction of the cost and you don't care about replacing breakages exactly then I'd say just buy the cheaper stuff. Buy 2x as much if you're worried and stash the spares somewhere.

    • @GanderFlight
      @GanderFlight  2 года назад +2

      It definitely has its place, like you said, perfect for small spaces!

    • @ckpetrillo
      @ckpetrillo 2 года назад +2

      Even in the US, some of us never used Corelle plates, only the occasional cookware piece or Grab it soup bowl. I bought some of the Ikea version for my father to use in assisted living & was so amazed at how light, easy to stack & easy to clean they are, that I now use them - plus the pretty blue ones Ikea has. Unfortunately, it looks like the blue is discontinued, so no matching bowls or salad plates. ☹️

    These dishes are made from tempered glass, which has a very unique property. The larger the impact area the less likely they are to break. The smaller the impact area the easier they are to break. It is just the way tempered glass is made.

      @Adeline9418 2 года назад +1

      @@GanderFlight right. The trouble with the wheat straw is that if you put greasy food on it, it seems like you can never clean it off. Always feels slimy. I'm also considering melamine dishes. I just don't need heavy plates,etc.

    When dropping onto the grassy ground how about dropping them edge-first instead of perfectly flat? Most plates knocked off a surface aren't falling perfectly level by the time they hit ground.
    Thanks for this! I wasn't aware of alternatives to Corelle brand. Since I have some individual pieces of Corelle purchased as emergency hotel dishes (helping my sister move during the pandemic shutdown, needed microwave-friendly dishes) I don't want to buy a complete set. I will check out Ikea's offerings -- I might find different shapes of bowls, too.

    We have and like the corelle plates for a few reasons. 1. Made in the USA. 2. We got them for free at a workamping job we had where an old house was being gutted and the people left a lot of stuff. 3. You can also find them for cheap at garage sales. 4. We really don't shop at Ikea. Thanks for taking the time to test these out. There are a lot of people that shop at Ikea and these types of plates work well for RVer's. Chris and Barbara

    One test never mentioned but equally as important is while hand washing with detergent is one easier to hold on to? You mentioned the IKEA one has a rougher back. Does it make a difference? I know for a fact the Corelle model is slippery as a wet bar of soap to hold on to!

    • @GanderFlight
      @GanderFlight  2 года назад +2

      They are both slippery - the rough back on the ikea doesn't help much with water and soap - BUT the lip on the Corelle definitely helps to keep a hold of the slippery dish better.

    Corelle is widely available in Walmart across the country, has a consistent set of core products that stay available, and they are made in America. If you aren't breaking dishes every day then both of these products are priced fine. The Corelle small plates are ~$3 here most of the time.

    I buy white Corelle because I know it don't contain lead, as Pillivuyt and Apilco also don't. That is very important to me, to not be lead poisoned. Then I wash it with a natural dish brush, with real bristles. This don't scratch my glass and plastic, but keeps it like new and shiny. I also use only natural detergent and I save on it, use as little as I can.

    • @RS-EKM
      @RS-EKM Год назад

      What I gathered from my online research is that it happens when too little stabilizer or too much of an alkali is added to the glass mixture. This causes it to expel moisture when stored in places with high humidity. Where I live, the average humidity is 82% so any glassware that doesn’t have the correct mix will ‘sweat’ (Crizzling occurs when the humidity is above 55%. )
      Haven’t had any problems with CORELLE so far but IKEA dinnerware ‘sweats’ when not in regular use.

    I grew up with Corelle dishes in rhe house. Even as a kid, that's just what we had and I can count on one hand how many times I've ever seen on break.
    Let's not be cheap here... it's less than $4 for an American made plate. Buying one that's 75 cents made in China just helps destroy American jobs and prop up a nightmare of a country.
    $4 for a plate that's going to last you for years is not a bad buy.

  • @PBandJsandwich

    There are so many issues with your testing methods, it's hard to know where to start.
    Corelle is thicker because it has a bead. Scratch resistance should be gauged with a elcometer or similar device - not chain male and calipers of unknown hardness. By using the chain male and calipers on one, then the other, you favor the second plate by dulling them on the first. By leaving the label on one plate, but not the other, you have effected the shock test. I assume there's more, but I couldn't get through the shock test.

    You’re missing the point of Corelle. The idea is to have a plate, bowl, cup etc. that is most like china plates without the cost and fragility. The fact that the Corelle is larger and heavier making it feel “real” is the big plus. If I want to buy a cheap plate that doesn’t break when dropped, well I guess I’d buy paper or plastic. Or better yet I’d go back to Melmac. I appreciate what you are trying to do with this “test” but it is far from scientific. All I know is that I have had Corelle for 30 plus years and I have never broken so much as a saucer. By the way, I buy Made in USA every chance I get.

    How neatly do each brand stack? I can't quite see in the video but it looks like the ikea ones aren't all exactly the same shape so you couldn't stack a very large stack neatly? (I'm looking at these from a catering context so having the ability to stack lots and lots of them very neatly is important)

    • @kaypotter9097
      @kaypotter9097 2 года назад +3

      I've had a set of the IKEA OFTAST dishes for about a year. I have 8 each of the dinner plates, side plates, regular bowls, and pasta bowls.
      None of them have broken, despite me clumsily dropping/flinging many of them in the sink while hand washing them. (I used to have a dishwasher, and these dishes came out great in the dishwasher. Then I moved, and I no longer have a dishwasher. But they still wash up great by hand.)
      You are correct that they do *not* stack 100% evenly. Visually, they still look pretty neat IMO (and I'm very particular). In terms of stability, because all of the pieces nest together pretty closely, there's not much room for them to wobble a lot or for the stacks to become very unstable. So despite the slight unevenness, my stacks of 8 are all stable.
      However, I can definitely see how larger stacks may become unstable. In order of their stability, I think the stacks of dinner plates are most stable, followed by the pasta bowls, followed by the side plates (starting to wobble more), and then followed by the regular bowls (starting to tilt more) as the least stable.
      Also, over time, a few of my dishes have gotten some imperfections on the shiny finish (on the front of the plate). They look like matte smudges. They're sorta hard to see, but when you do see them in the right light, they kinda look dirty. There's definitely no residue or anything lingering on the dishes, and I haven't found a way to "clean off" the smudges. I don't mind this for everyday use at home, but it might matter for more formal catering settings.
