Are these Corelle bowls by Corning or a knock-off brand?

corelle is a brand name of corning. the ones we bought came in a branded box. We have had no problems.

I think they are made by Vitrelle instead of Corning (not sure; they got mixed up with my other bowls, some Corning and some Vitrelle). They work great though.

Mine were also made in China. I thought it was because they are ceramic instead of the usual corelle unbreakable formula.

They are heavy. Not at all like Corelle. Less than Fiestaware though. I hope this is helpful.

I'm a newbie to fiestaware, so I can't say for sure when a piece is authentic, but my plate, large bowl, and small bowl markings are all different. The large bowls have a printed mark, the small bowls and plates have a vague engraved marking. I'm pretty sure they're all authentic because they match all the markings on the link below. But some are print, others are engraved and a little hard to read. I suspect mine are all new or relatively new. I don't know much about vintage fiestaware. Hope this link helps.http://www.texascooking.com/fiestaware/identifying_fiestaware.htm

Im not sure but they are not thin and cheap feeling. I am very very happy with these. I really like that they have lids, and love the small ones for dips and sauces. Hope this helps

Hello Barbara, no its a Chinese knockoff but its good quality...I have many Apilco and Pillivuyt ceramics...I bought one of these to replace a Chinese set I bought when it was all I could afford and have used them for 30 years to make Mocha pots of cream my wife's favorite.

They are a knock out called Ciera Gourmet. My children got them for me as a christmas present so I did not want to make them feel bad. So far no problems with them that I know of.

Right - that's not the same item. You are looking for the "Cedric Buffet" from Hokku Designs: Cedric Buffet

No. They are a bit different then my original set of 15 years ago. The logo doesn't look authentic. The silver is different. The depth of the spoons are different. But, overall its a good knock off if you need to add to your existing set.

I bought several, for myself and my family. They last a very long time. I don't think they're a knockoff!

I didn't keep them. They were not as well made as my Corelle dishes so I returned them.

I did not keep those bowls as a few were broken when I opened the package. I then ordered different bolw. I have some similar to the Arc ones which I have had for many years and they are fine in the microwave but really cannot be sure that these ones are.

No, not one of the bowls have a manufacturer on the bottom. The only marking was on the scan label on the bottom which says BIA China. I bought a set of bowls, years ago, from a place called Pier One and only had two left. I went hunting at Amazon and found these which looked the same. They are the same with the exception the new bowls are thicker and the detail on the outside of the bowl isn't as deep. Otherwise they are pretty much the same. I looked at the bottom of the old bowls purchased years ago and they do not have a manufacturer listed on the bottom either. Hope that helps.

They are very similar to Basset's--good quality. I'm not familiar with the Top Foods brand. Since they arrived in such a "melted" condition, as I state in my review, it was hard to determine their overall quality. I had to throw most of them away.

I believe so. I wondered myself why they are the same pattern and color. Perhaps the official Corelle site could give the answer.

The only difference I'm seeing is that this set - and the one I own - have the matching soup bowl whereas the less expensive one has a plain Corning bowl. I would advise just shopping around to find the lowest price (including shipping) on the one you like best. The bowl that matches the set is much nicer, obviously, than the plain white corning bowl, or even a white rimmed bowl. I think I paid about $50 a set and I have two of them.

read Joan's comment,because before ordering,I looked everywhere. The only thing I can come up with,is that was on the package and I never bothered looking. Lesson learned. Though they are great bowls,as I wrote Joan,how come our country can not make them. Sorry.
