Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of CorningWare French White 2-1/2-Quart Round Casserole Dish with Glass Cover
Customer Review: I use this a lot
Summary: 4 Stars
I knew this was stoneware when I got it. I wanted a good covered stoneware casserole dish that I could use for casseroles,breads and yogurt making. This one is perfect.
When I'm baking a casserole or bread I put the dish on a jelly roll pan to bake. They do very well, and my family loves it when I make macaroni and cheese in this because the depth gives them just the amount of crustiness and topping they want with the mac and cheese.
My main use for this is as a crock for making yogurt in. It makes just the right amount for a weeks worth of yogurt in my family, and can go straight into the fridge after the yogurt ferments. I can also use my immersion blender directly in it for mixing in flavors.
I use powdered milk, scalded/cooled to warm low-fat milk and plain yogurt from the grocery store or yogurt starter to make my yogurt, put it in the casserole, cover it, then put it in a warm bath in a 9x13x2 inch pan in my turned off oven. 6-10 hours later, it's set up and I can put it straight into the fridge. This dish is perfect for that.
Customer Review: I am in love with the entire French White Line...

These are the best casserole dishes. A wonderful friend gave me a set as a wedding present over 5 years ago and I haven't broken even one of these wonderful dishes yet! They clean up easily and are perfect for soufflés or meat casseroles.
This one in particular is great for using for a cheese soufflé. Look for the oval dishes for lasagna and dinner casseroles.
Dishwasher safe and can be put in the freezer and microwave!
What more could you ask for? I am so pleased Amazon started to carry these items and just found them today!

Customer Review: This is not what CorningWare used to be
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought a CorningWare 2 1/2 quart casserole dish at K-mart several years ago, and what I received from Amazon today is not at all the same thing (even though it has the same name and looks somewhat similar). The old dish is the true CorningWare material (glass-based), a bright white, and made in the USA. The new dish is stoneware, off-white, and made in China. CorningWare kept the name but has gone cheap on quality, which is shameful. Now I see another reviewer saying the same thing... wish I would have read it before ordering!! I should have bought the no-brand cheapie on sale at Wal-mart instead of this piece of junk.Customer Review: Made in China

I was glad to find this 2 1/2 qt round Casserole on the internet. I live only a few hours from the Corning Factory and wanted to purchase this name brand to help the local economy. I was dissapointed when I took the bowl out of the box and discovered it was made in China! It isn't mentioned on the Website or on the box.
It's a pretty good Casserole dish if you don't mind supporting China's economy.

I have had one of these for years but last year it evidently decided to go to someone else's house and liked it there so well it never returned. Nobody will admit to having it, sensibly, I might add. This is a capacious, sturdy casserole that will hold enough scalloped potatoes for ten people and still have leftovers. It's attractive and indestructible. Just what's needed for the holidays!
