Awesome deal - great quality storage containers for bringing lunch to work. No more plastic storage containers that degrade with microwave use.
SO I put the 18 piece set on my wishlist for my birthday and my wonderful son purchased them for me. I have the 14 piece set and LOVE it. Small problem, no pun intended, the smallest set of the dishes is short one dish. Lids fit tightly and unlike plastic you can put these in the bottom rack of the dishwasher. And let us not forget no fear of the dreaded plastic toxicity/carcinogen/whatever from heating in the microwave (take the plastic lid off :) They make me feel environmentally virtuous as an added bonus. Have the lid but no dish to affix it too. Disappointed in the lack of quality control re: packaging but I'm keeping the set because, as aforementioned, I love these.
Put warm or hot water in it. I swear I dont know how anyone can rate these less than 5.I have these and the bakeware and they are great. But these storage containers are great. It goes without saying if you put HOT stuff in these bowls do not stick straight in the fridge, wait till it cools. Just like if you buy the bakeware and take out of oven, do not put cold water on a GLASS pan that just came out of the oven. Dishwasher safe, etc. Been using them for a year and the covers work perfect they do not slip off or whatever else I read.BYE BYE PLASTIC STORAGE CONTAINERS FOREVER.Buy them, YOU WILL NOT REGRET it.
The lids fit snugly so NO SPILLS and everything is dishwasher safe. I didn't want to go through all the trouble of making them myself only to heat them up in BPA filled plastic tupperware.After using them for that purpose for a month, I began using these for all of my leftovers as well. I initially ordered this set to heat up my babies foods in since I make homemade purees and freeze them. I ended up using all of my old plastic tupperware containers for storage of small toy parts and ordered a second set of pyrex. What a fabulous product. No staining, no odors, no scratches or marks on the sides. This is all I am using now. Very pleased.
I've been using them to freeze foods, as well as bake, and store left overs. I find them to be very durable, convenient and easy to maintain. I recently purchased the 18 piece Pyrex set. I've been washing the covers by hand however, after reading some of the other reviews that indicated that the covers become brittle overtime when washed in the machine. The clean lines make them easy to clean. I find it useful that they're transparent, since you can see the contents. The combination of sizes in this 18 piece set meets my needs very well. Overall, I would highly recommend this product.
