Pyrex Glass Round Casserole, 1.0L

Items were delivered promptly and in safe condition.

Good family sized Pyrex casserole dish. Item is listed as 4.9L which is total volume inc. lid. Actual useable volume is 3.5L - 3.75L, which I checked with seller before buying, but some people may be expecting the dish to hold 4.9L, which it can't. Pyrex now list this as 3.5L dish but note in technical specs, dish 3.5L, lid 1.4L, so total is 4.9L. I don't know why they do that. All in all, a great family sized casserole dish at a good price.

Versatile and oven compatible, value for money

Who doesn't know about Pyrex by now? It is great stuff it withstands high oven temperatures and therefore makes great casserole dish etc. Although the actual purchase of this item wasn't completed, due to it being sent out by Amazon Warehouse deals when it was badly chipped and really unusable, we've got others in the house. This size is about right for say 4 chicken breasts in a cook in sauce, enough stew for 2 people, etc. No use if you've a tribe to feed or like cooking in batches and freezing but to cook enough to feed two people it's the right size. I've noticed that all Pyrex lids don't seem to fit as snug as they used to but perhaps that's been changed on purpose, after all they used to regularly weld to the rest of the casserole if any gravy/sauce got onto lid.

I own an array of Pyrex dishes and trays, and I’ve found this casserole dish to be another fantastic addition to my kitchen. I bought it after deciding to expand my cooking skills and make some good comfort food. After skimming through other products offered by companies such as Le Creuset, I quickly realized they were out of my price range. However, this dish has been the perfect blend of price and quality that I firmly believe you won’t find elsewhere!The product arrived swiftly, and I opened the box to find it well packaged. The lid is a convex shape that has been turned upside down to fit inside the casserole dish during transportation. When this is flipped the right side up it does add a few cm to the overall height, so I would make a note of how much room you can spare.The dish measures ~27cm length, ~30cm width. The height is ~9cm with the lid off, which increases to ~ with the lid on 12.5cm.One thing that I noticed was this dish has grips under the handle, so you’re less likely to drop it while handling it. Additionally, this dish has a wide separation between the handles and the dish itself. The means that you won’t struggle to remove the lid with oven gloves on.In regards to cooking, it does a fantastic job. However, obviously the glass does get very hot so some care is needed when taking it out of the oven. This dish did a brilliant job of helping me cook something that Sunday evenings deserve! After I had finished it was very easy to clean, and if I don’t have time, I find that I can let it soak for a while and it’ll help get any stuck food off quickly- this is not something you can do with an iron pan (to my knowledge).I have nothing bad to say about the product, I have found it to be practically flawless. I could clutch at straws and say it accumulates fingerprints quickly, but these will always come off in the wash.Overall, a brilliant casserole dish that will see many uses, and certainly stand the test of time! A must-have for any kitchen.

I found this Pyrex casserole ideal for making home-made stews in the oven. Great addition to my kitchen.

Firstly it was delivered quickly and in perfect condition. At first I thought it was going to be too small but once I opened the box could see it was a very good size, more width than depth and exactly what I wanted. The lid fits perfectly and could even be used as a pie dish if wanted. I wanted a casserole dish for the oven as most these days are for the hob, and I can use the slow cooker setting on my gas oven. As with all pyrex it is easy to clean. All in all very pleased with this item.

The last dish we had broke sometime ago, so we needed this and with the good reviews I purchased this. Didn't realise how deep it was bit that's no issue. Have not tried it yet. Looks decent only time will tell.
