 Written on June 20, 2008 Summary: great, until you break them I am a big fan of pyrex. I owned quite a few set of them. They are wonderful for storage. However, just make sure you don't break them. I dropped one from the shelf by accident one time, it broke into hundreds of tiny little pieces, and they were so fine and sharp, almost impossible to clean them up. I was so I still got half a dozen cut from tiny microscopic glass pieces. It is way worse than any other glass I ever broke. I had to keep my kids, and dog out of the kitchen for a week, just to make sure we got all the pieces.  Written on May 27, 2008 Summary: Pyrex containers simplified my life I had fairly recently invested in a set of Rubbermaid Premier containers when the news got out about BPA (bisphenol-A) leaching into foods from plastic. I didn't want to invest in more plastic -- even grades of plastic that are currently considered safe. I decided to go with glass. And I'm glad I did. This set is one of three that I purchased. I also bought the Pyrex Storage 6-Piece Refrigerator Shape Storage, Clear with Blue Lids and the Pyrex Storage 6-Piece Round Set, Clear with Blue Lids. With these three sets, I feel I have ample storage for whatever I cook for my family of four. I had feared that switching to glass -- although the right decision for me from a health-consciousness perspective -- would be the source of some headaches. I imagined having to be overly cautious with the containers, treating them super gently, worrying that they would slip out of the refrigerator and break, wondering how I would stack them in the cabinet without having them all fall down. To my delight, this hasn't been the case at all. The manufacturer's claim that the glass is light-weight is fair. Obviously, these aren't as light as plastic containers, but they are very manageable. The sizes in this 18-piece set are pretty versatile. The smallest bowls could fit a single serving of fruit or a side dish. The medium bowls are general purpose size. The largest bowls in this set are pretty spacious, and are about as big as you'd want in a glass bowl -- anything larger, and you would start to have problems fitting it in the fridge. These pieces are not as attractive as those in Pyrex's more fashionable lines, but I would have no qualms about serving from these at any casual meal. They look much nicer than anything plastic. The Pyrex lids are, to me, an improvement over the lids that come with Rubbermaid plastic containers. First, each lid has a lip that runs all the way around the outer edge. This allows the bowls to be stacked safely on top of each other, whether in the cabinet or in the refrigerator. The storage bowl on top rests inside the lip of the bowl on bottom and won't slide off. Also, the design of these lids makes them easier to clean. All the Rubbermaid container lids I've owned have had a very narrow opening on the outside edge where the container fits into the lid. These crevices can trap bits of food (usually sauces gone astray in my experience) and can be very difficult to clean. The Pyrex lids have a wide lip that can easily be wiped out. Other reasons I am glad I replaced my plastic containers with these: 1. No more concern about harmful chemicals getting into my food. 2. I can microwave leftovers right in the storage container. 3. I can wash these in the top or bottom rack of my diswasher without any worries. 4. I can put fish, tomato sauce, whatever into these and not worry about them retaining stains or odors. Buying these Pyrex sets was a bit of an investment, but now that we're being told you should replace plastic every few years since it breaks down with use, heat, etc., I figure I will make up the cost in the long run. Written on May 19, 2008 Summary: Better Than Plastic! I am so happy with my Pyrex food storage containers, I can't believe anyone would still use plastic storage. These containers are cleaner, don't get stained like plastic does, don't LEACH chemicals into your food, are super sturdy (I've dropped one and it didn't break), the lids are air tight and don't leak...what can I say. I'm hooked. Throw out your plastic and order these - you won't be disappointed!  Written on May 12, 2008 Summary: Disappointed Arrived with chipped bowl and I cannot get the lids to fit. I won't buy Pyrex through the mail, again. Very cheaply packaged. I am not impressed with this set. I wish I had chosen another manufacturer. Written on May 9, 2008 Summary: SO much happier with glass These are great, sturdy glass flat-bottomed bowls with tight-fitting covers. At first I had a hard time getting on the covers, but I figured out the technique: You have to start at one place and seal around in a circle. I feel much safer using glass instead of plastic, and it's nice to be able to see the leftovers. I'm very happy with my purchase. |
