Product Reviews

Amazon.com Review
Most of us have become masters of multitasking--answering phones, checking e-mail, and reading simultaneously, and Corningware follows suit with dishes designed for the microwave, oven, tabletop, dishwasher, and refrigerator. These three serving bowls can be used interchangeably to cook, serve, and store food. The set includes three Pyrex serving bowls (3, 6, and 10 cups), ideal for salads, sauces, or leftovers. Made from sturdy Pyrex, which can be microwaved or baked (but not under the broiler!) and is dishwasher-safe, each bowl comes with a tightly fitting plastic lid. Note that the plastic lids cannot be used in the oven, and are intended only for use in the microwave or for storage. The set boasts a two-year warranty on all the bowls, and one year for lids. --Ariel Meadow Stallings


Indispensable and Invaluable
Because I often make things and bring them to family gatherings, these bowls and lids have become indispensable to me. I will NEVER get rid of them or give them away.

The sculptured design is attractive, timeless, and presentable on the dining table. It's also easy to clean and doesn't hold dirt. Because I hand wash, having no dishwasher in my dinky studio apartment, this minor detail is tremendously important.

I like that these are clear class with no coloring; you can easily see the contents of the bowl. The glass also doesn't stain and scratch like plastic storage containers do over time. Mine have some scratches from years of use, but nothing like the gouges you see in old plastic containers.

The dark navy lids do not show stains and that's important for plastics that are used year after year. The lids still fit very well and they're easy to clean on the inside, unlike the aggravating grooves in my mother's old Tupperware containers. If I want to be certain that no leaking occurs during transport to a gathering, depending upon the contents, I cover the bowl with plastic wrap and then put the lid on. So far, so good.

I happened to see this set on display at a grocery store, thought it over a bit and bought it. It's one of the best kitchen purchases I've ever made. It's unfortunate that this set has been discontinued because I consider my set to be invaluable.

If you're very much the practical cook and you often bring food to gatherings, I'd suggest grabbing this set if you ever happen to see it somewhere at a good price.

Bowl Sizes
The bowl sizes are 3 cup, 6 cup, and 10 cup bowls. Matching lids included.

Pleased
I was very happy with my choice of the pyrex bowls with the lids. I liked the simple design, the weight of the glass(not too heavy)& the nice tight fitting lids. I recommend them & would buy them again.
