Clear Round Glass Casserole Dish With Glass Lid Covered Glass Bakeware,Glass Microwavable Bowls (2.5L)

The description of this product hides important information including where it was produced and which standard it adopted. I thought it was a good dish produced in America with a normal-level standard.However, this is a Chinese cheep one(I don’t mean Chinese product bad, but this dish is even low-end for Chinese market). The QB/T 4064-2010 is an outdated food-grade glass standard issued 10years ago by Chinese government, and is less strict than those of Europe and US in terms of heavy metal components and heat-resisting.BTW, I searched its retail price in Chinese market, about 3 dollars. Considering transportation and operating cost, with a retail price of 25 in Amazon, the profit ratio is still irrationally more than 200%-350%. I wonder if drug dealers are green with envy.

I thought I was going to get a product from zyer. I got a product from a Chinese manufacturer. Please save your money and buy something else/a different brand. Not worth it.

I looked at a lot of clear casseroles for microwaving vegetables, and chose this one for its size and shape. I'm very happy with those aspects of it, and it cooks food perfectly. But I guess I thought 'Easy Grab' meant stay-cool handles. Silly me. This one definitely requires potholders. I'll try reducing cooking time so I can leave it sit and cool a bit before 'grabbing' it.

While my Anchor Casserole dish with lid is also 1.5 quarts, this one is slightly higher but about an inch and a half smaller in diameter. The dish is great, but it would not work for my needs. I needed it to bake my German rye bread in it, but the diameter was just too small as it should have the same diameter as the proofing basket does. So, before you order, take measurements to make sure this one is big enough for your needs.

I love having a 2 1/2 quart casserole with a lid that doubles as another cooking dish. I can use this casserole in freezer, micro, oven and dishwasher. The borosilicate glass is safe to preheat up to 450 degrees to bake my dutch oven bread in. Cast iron is too heavy for me to handle with arthritis, and this dish does it all without being too heavy!
