 Great casserole! May 13, 2007

I love this bowl. It's a nice size for casseroles and the lid snaps on for storage. I use it for marinating meats and chicken and for large salads. It's great in the microwave; The vents really work. I even make Jello deserts in it. Very easy to clean and easy to store. Pyrex put a lot of thought into the style. It really works well for me.
 my favorite microwaving and leftover-storage containers May 29, 2005

I have owned four of these containers for at least 3 years, maybe 4 years, and have used the smaller ones almost daily. They have lasted well, except that some of the plastic lids have started to become slightly brittle, less flexible. However, they still seem like a good deal for the price, considering how much we have used them. I use the 3-quart size less frequently, and the lid is still like new.
These containers are great for microwaving, and storing leftovers in the fridge. They do not retain odors from garlic, etc. There has been no staining, even when tomato sauce splatters on the lid. The glass containers can also go in the oven (without the plastic lids of course), but I have not used them for that.
The clear glass makes it easy to view your food while microwaving. The lid has a nifty vent hole that allows some, but not all steam, to escape. The vent has a tab that can be closed later to form a tight seal, when you want to store the leftovers in the refrigerator. The lids are almost flat, slightly indented, which allows another bowl to be stacked on top.
Like other plastics, the lids may get small white pitted spots on the interior, if someone seriously overcooks the food in the microwave -- too high a power setting for too long a time. My husband has a tendency to do this. I wonder if this overheating is the reason that some of the most-often-used lids have become slightly brittle. Or is it because I put the lids in the dishwasher (on the top rack)? Or will this just happen after years of frequent use?
The 3-quart size is useful when making several servings.
