Dishes for RV

I'm scouring the googlesphere and Amazon looking for a new set of dishes to keep in the RV. I don't want melamine since they don't microwave well, but want something big enough for a decent steak and potato and will handle cutting meat on.

I'd like to get a set that at least includes bowls and maybe cups.

Anybody find some they like?

Thanks muches!

We e usd the same set of Corelle dinner wear since 2005. In 2 motor homes, 2 fifth wheels and a TT toy hauler. Never broke a single plate and travelled over 50,000 miles.

If I showed you my dishes you would not consider anything other than Correlle. Half my dishes broke on the last Arizona trip. I now have 3 plates, a bowl and a saucer left from a 16 piece set.

After a plate of Corelle breaking into a million slivers, I would not use them in the RV and haven't. We have high end plastic that is microwaveable that we bought from Target years ago. Serves us well when we use hard dishes, otherwise we use a good paper plate and burn everything.

Correlle. Amazon has complete sets for $50-100.

I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be

Another vote for Correlle. A tip- While travelling in our MH I would layer a paper towel between all the dishes to prevent rattling. Noises drove me nuts in our MH.

We liked the Corelle for camping and afterwards replaced our home crockery with Corelle. Corelle is highly functional, break resistant and lasts for many years.

Forth for Corelle they have served us well!


I also used Corelle.. I also have some nordic-ware style Microwave (plastic) plates..

Avoid any "Metallic" decorations. Cost me a coffee cup with a friend of the 10-T variety heated it up in the nuc-o-matic and then dropped it.

Corelle. You can get sets or open-stock individual pieces. Walmart.com or Amazon.com.

5th 6th whatever the count is
Corelle

Use them in microwave all the time

Broke ONE plate since 2006
While drying I dropped it...it hit the kitchen floor bounced...popped open the RV screen door and bounced out hitting a bolder next to camp site
It was like a rubber ball until the impact with bolder

Think we purchased a full set for 4 at Walmart --- plates (dinner and smaller), bowls (cereal and cup size)

Still have the original set...minus one plate
Have expanded on the set since back in S&B via Thrift Stores

We also carried a FULL Noritake China Set...the Whole set up for 8 (was my Mom-s China) Used it for ALL the special dinners and still do
Never broke any of it...but I am not allowed to dry them LOL
Is it time for your medication or mine?

We are really cheap, we found our Corelle at thrift stores. With a bit of hunting a full set can be pieced together. And most look brand new-never used.
