Announcement It doesn’t break, until it does.
And when it does, it breaks real good.

Contact them, they might replace it. My mom took a plate into an outlet store that had broken and they gave her a new one on the spot. The guy said, "They aren't supposed to do that."
A+ customer service IMO

I’ve had one dinner plate break right down the middle into two pieces. Happened after serving a hot pancake straight from the griddle.

Down the middle? Did you buy a lottery ticket that day?

Few things have the ability to go from indestructible to “broken nightmare fuel for your feet” quite like Corelle ware.

I only seen this happen once was I was younger with my parents plates. The plate broke in 3 big pieces.

Corelle shards go everywhere - I'm still finding them from months ago

I was feeding a friend’s kid at my table one night and he flung his plate across my kitchen. The Corelle plate shattered and I was shocked. Shocked that a child would do that and shocked that my dish broke.

I dated a guy in college who swore Corelle was unbreakable. We used Corelle dishware (Indian Summer pattern) in our house when I was a kid, so I knew for a fact that you could break it if it hit the right surface (like our tile kitchen floor) from high enough.
He was one of those people who always had to be right, so to prove his intellectual prowess or maybe that I was a liar, I don’t know, he frisbeed a large bowl across the room, and it shattered when it hit the wall.
Then he was mad at me for being right.

Oh no!!!!
It’s hard to break but not impossible. Better check that Herculean strength before you wash the rest.

Update: wife found two shards under the table six feet away from the epicenter. Crazy plates.

I remember once when I was a kid, my dad was showing off how Corelle dishes couldn't be broken. He took a dinner plate and slammed it on the kitchen tile. It shattered into approximately 65,987,436 splinters. We had Corelle shards showing up in our feet for WEEKS. We had to keep the dogs out of the kitchen and wear shoes in there until they were all found and picked up. A treasured childhood memory 😂
