Product Reviews A Solid Product But Two Caveats
This product, like all Pyrex, is of excellent quality however, there are two things I do not like. First, the lid is difficult to get off. (I am not physically impaired) Second, the glass portion has handles. While this would be good if you were using it for baking and needed the handles to get the dish in and out of the over, they take up a great deal of extra space in the fridge. If you plan to use the dish primarily for food storage, I would go with the syle of Pyrex dishes that do not have the handles and have the easier-to-use lids.
Disappointed!!
I have bought some of these in the past and love them! But the newly designed lid only has a single seal instead of double, and it makes them easier to leak, if not porperly sealed and, horror! the juices that condensate on the lid run all the way to the edge now, so when you put the lid on again they come hoozing out from the sides!!! Not very convenient for taking them to work or anywhere where there is not a sink handy.
Perfect for smaller couple-sized dishes!
Since it's just hubby and I in our household, and we get tired of leftovers pretty quickly, these 5 cup Pyrex's are heaven sent! Even the 8x8's are too big for us, but the 5 cup is perfect for one night and a couple leftovers. I can prepare a regular sized dish, say, boiling pasta for baked ziti, and then separate the pasta and sauce into 2 of these 5-cup Pyrex dishes. One Pyrex with lid goes into the freezer, and the other Pyrex goes into the oven. After dinner, when the Pyrex has cooled off, I pop the lid on, and into the fridge it goes, no having to worry about getting out the plastic wrap, or scooping the leftovers into other storage containers. It's just one less thing to worry about. I love them.
