Tri-Circle-D 2,059 Posted April 25, 2017 Report Share Posted April 25, 2017 Wow, those are nice, and the price seems very good too. I have more than enough camping plates, cups and bowls, though. Plus, I use paper plates as much as possible. TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Beckers 1,136 Posted April 25, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 25, 2017 Yeah we are pretty much environment wreckers while camping too, but some meals call for real plates. Then I complain the whole time I'm washing them lol. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Avatab.... Steve 124 Posted April 26, 2017 Report Share Posted April 26, 2017 Those are nice. We got the "Camp Casual" set that someone here linked to last year: https://jet.com/product/detail/21469c0012b14286ba537faf3ee1fe76?jcmp=pla:ggl:NJ_dur_Gen_Automotive_Parts__Accessories_a2:Automotive_Parts__Accessories_RV_Parts__Accessories_Furnishings__Appliances_a2:na:PLA_785913093_44722405327_aud-155003204480:pla-296056823652:na:na:na:2&code=PLA15 They're great but I'm not sure how many times I'd want to put them thru the dishwasher. And the big problem for me is melamine is not microwave safe..... how can you cook w/o a microwave?? Besides, I'm with TCD, I use paper plates whenever possible Roberta 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Those suckers will blister then the bubbles pop throwing little pieces of melamine all over the ovens. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It's a great dinner set, really like the theme (and the ones above too), but I never use them because they won't go in the microwave. I know I could easily heat food in another dish, and I have done that, but most of the time it's just easier to use paper plates or a microwave safe plate. But I'm a guy so what do I know? I can boil water and thus create a panful of Kraft Mac and Cheese (that's what I lived on in college...) but even with Kraft nowadays I end up making their microwave version.... I'm sure others would not be deterred by the melamine/microwave issue Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ependydad...Doug 176 Posted April 26, 2017 Report Share Posted April 26, 2017 The melamine microwave plates are no joke. I tried nuking food one day on our old set- got to the point where the plate was literally hot to the touch, food charred, and the rest of the food was still cold. In other news, I can tell you the exact day that I learned our plates were NOT microwave safe.... Travisma and Roberta 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
