Customer Review: Update of the original Pyrex storage product
Summary: 5 Stars
A passionate home cook that has been honing her cooking skills for the last 25 years writes this review. My favorite cookbooks are "The Professional Chef" by the Culinary Institute and "Culinary Artistry. Cooking is my form of therapy. I have owned my set of these for at least 5 years, and possibly longer. Additionally, I also own a set of the original Pyrex storage containers that do not have a vet.
The glass that these containers are made from is very tough. I have not broken a single one of these containers in the time that I have owned them. This may not sound like much but I am hard on things, and for all of them to still be intact is a minor miracle in my home. The glass is very tough.
Pros:
1. Glass is very tough, seems almost indestructible
2. I like that they are not plastic, so I feel safe about reheating food in them
3. The lids fit well and provide a tight seal
4. The lids of this upgraded product appear to be more durable than the original Pyrex lids
5. The vent is nice for microwave reheating without messing up your microwave's interior
6. These containers fit well into lunch bags so that you family can take your healthy home cooked food to work or school.
7. The containers stack well inside each other for space cramped kitchens
8. You can bake in these and then cool the food (I place the entire container into a roasting pan filled with ice water) put on the lid and slide the pan into the refrigerator.
9. You can freeze food in these containers
Cons:
1. The lids are easy to use for me (I am 44 years old) but I suspect that they might pose a problem for older arthritic hands.
2. The original Pyrex storage containers do not stack efficiently inside the new design. The shape is just a little different.
Overall, I would recommend these to anyone that likes to cook in quantity and doesn't like to reheat food in plastic. I use these everyday in my kitchen.
