Selected User Reviews For Duralex Made In France Lys 7 1/2 Inch Clear Dessert Plate, Set of 6
The Duralex coffee cups and drinking glasses I use last for years and do not etch or cloud when repeatedly put in the dishwasher. reason for my 2 star rating is that the plates I received have a raised embossed logo at the very top of the plates, not at It was a very tacky looking cd, so I had to return it. It was well packaged and arrived on time, but I am very disappointed in the plates, which, in my opinion, seem to be factory seconds - none of my other Duralex have the Duralex made in France logo on the top or inside the cups and.
This is disgusting! There is an imprinted label where the glasses should be, on the exterior of the frame. Why are things the way they are? The reasoning makes no sense to me.
As opposed to the underside of the plate, the glass on the plates I received has raised lettering molded into it (on the top of the plate, facing the food). There are two things wrong with the raised glass lettering on the top side of the plate It is a first class mail delivery service In addition to collecting food particles and calcium build-up, the lettering is also likely to collect dirt. Second - the hair that has grown during the washing will be a nuisance to remove As a result of abrasion from eating utensils, raised glass lettering will scratch over time. A prompt refund was provided by Amazon after I returned the plates.
I've done a second set to go along with the first. There is an irritating raised edge on one of the plates in the second set. There's probably only one thing I can say about this Due to the fact that they are shipped individually, maybe the packers should be more attentive to picking up flaws when All of these dishes also display the name of the manufacturer in raised letters in the center of the food side. The brand mark on my first set didn't seem to appear on this set. If I keep it, it might become a food trap.
These plates are made of glass, and they're supposedly of high quality. As a result.
In other words. I have my mother's Yorktown Pfaltzgraff dishes that she passed down to me eons ago. It was great to work with them! However, over time, the paint started to heat up and melt, and the cracks began to appear in them. A little scary. However, some of those dishes were at least 30 years old, so what can one expect? So I wanted to, finally, grow up and do something new and different instead of staying in the old ways. I also don't want to poison my three kids with all the crazy stuff that's in our This has been the best set by far. My husband, myself, and my youngest have all broken one of them. It has been almost a year since we last had them. There were three that broke as well. I think so. Since they fell so far, I would have assumed they were made of plastic, even if they didn't break. I like the classy design and the way they clean so br>We are in love with In addition, no chemicals are used.
There was an edge with gray bubbles on top of one of the dishes. Amazon's customer service can be reached by entering your phone number on their contact page, and they will call you back right away. P was the letter they had. So I was able to avoid paying to return the plates and had the new ones by Monday, thanks to the return label delivered to my email address. It doesn't matter if the plates are new or not. It is the simple but elegant design of the plates that makes it so appealing. It's nice to know that there is no glaze on these plates so there's no concern about anything leaching into your This is a dessert plate in a smaller size. This is an update for you It was February. - 18th of April, 2014 A Duralex product in my home is one of three that I have. My order from Duralex USA is for one of the plates that isn't available on Amazon, so I had to order directly from the manufacturer. It totally cracked in my dishwasher when I ran one of the beautiful Paris dishes through it. In my opinion, Duralex products should not be placed in dishwashers. The most glass pieces I could remove from the motor of our dishwasher were still stuck in it, even after I cleaned it out. There was a problem with the dishwasher, so we had to replace it. In my call with Duralex USA, they still told me their dishes were dishwasher safe, however they sent me an email to explain that they may break "if they are subjected to a mechanical shock. " This is what they wrote to me in their email "Tempered glass is made up of many thin layers of toughened glass. ". Molecular packing is exactly what makes it so strong--the heat basically seals it in, searing the molecules into one another. It is possible for tempered glass to break like any other glass. Unless you treat tempered glass with care, a small chip or hairline fracture can cause its breaking if a mechanical shock is applied to it. There are many layers in the system, which slows the impact as it passes through each layer. The result of this delayed reaction is the appearance of a delay. Due to the many layers of the glass, it typically shatter into small rounded pieces with relatively smooth edges in the event that it does break. The manufacturers claim that the dishes are dishwasher safe, but I do not believe that. They did send me a new set of Paris dishes (6) to replace the one that was broken. I wash all Duralex products by hand. The product and dishes are still my favorite, but I would not recommend washing them in the dishwasher.
Especially in modern times when almost everything can be prepared in a microwave, Duralex is hard to beat. I am amazed at how sturdy this stuff is. Glass is not so much a material as it's a variation of pyrex, so even if it were to break, it wouldn't hurt anything. While I'm not gentle with them, neither of my boys have yet shown any signs of aggression towards me Glass doesn't shatter, so you won't have a bunch of little glass shards scattered everywhere, but rather nice big pieces that are easy to see and clean.
