Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Pyrex Storage Deluxe 5-Cup Rectangular Dish, Clear with Blue LidCustomer Review: Agree with C.Shaw; not Great Summary: 3 Stars
Years ago I bought several of the old-style Pyrex 5 cup dishes and I've loved them. But the lids don't last forever, and recently I found myself shopping for new ones. To my horror, the single lip redesign of the lids on the new ones makes them much more prone to leaking. What was Pyrex thinking??? (My guess: "These'll be cheaper to manufacture, no-one will ever know the difference, and we'll increase our profit margin!") Unfortunately, the new style is still the best storage dishes I've found. Too bad I can only give them 3 stars... yes, that means all others are less. And I've tried quite a few, because I hate it when my lunch leaks in my briefcase! The rectangular shape is quite nice because it takes less space in the fridge than a similar-volume round dish, and they stack better. The lip (aka "handles") is clearly necessary to make the lids seal as well as they do--to see the difference, try the 6 cup rectangular "baking dish" that doesn't have the lip. Don't EVER put liquid in one of the 6 cup dishes... it just runs right back out like the lid wasn't even there! The 5 cup dishes are good. I just wish Pyrex would make a great (5 STAR) dish.
