Great product--sure beats plastic tupperware!
I like leftovers, but am terrified of storing them in plastic tupperware because of all the studies about the carcinogenic chemicals from them leeching into the food. So naturally, I was excited when these Pyrex containers went on sale. They're sturdy and the lids stay on tight--no messy leakage! I can stick them in the microwave, dishwasher, and freezer. Also they are much easier to wash than plastic. If you have ever stored tomato sauce in one of those plastic containers, you know what I mean.
So much nicer than the plastic stuff.
These are fantastic bowls and lids. Just the right size. Microwave in them and they don't melt. They don't leak. Clean and neat. I would recommend these to anyone!! And thanks to Amazon I got a fantastic price on them. Highly recommended.
Good storage containers
Pyrex is nice...you can put them in the dishwasher, microwave, freezer, etc. I bought two sets of these because 14 pieces counts the lids, so you end up with only 7 dishes. I gave four stars because they chip easily...before I used a single dish, one chipped on me as I was putting it away. I am waiting to see if I have any other chipping problems. Overall, these things are great. I highly recommend using these over plastic food containers!
great storageware
I bought this set after getting rid of my old plastic stuff. There are concerns about chemicals in plastics so I thought, why chance it? So I bought these containers and I have to say I like them even better than the plastic. They heat well in the microwave and are just the right size for storage and meal portioning. The lids are included and are water tight from what I've seen. I think it is definitely worth the money to buy something that will last and might even be more safe for you.
Great
The pyrex set is great - it's nice to be able to take the lid off and stick the container in the microwave. The only downside is that the lids can be a little hard to get on the containers.
