Product Description: Corning Pyrex, 6-Piece Round Bowl Set Includes 2, 4 & 7 Cup round bowls with dark blue covers that will store your left-overs and make re-heating easy.
Amazon.com Review: Durable and nice-looking, Pyrex Storage pieces offer a welcome alternative to a cupboard full of plasticware. Made from strong, clear glass, the dishes are great for leftovers, ingredients, or prepared food. They store comfortably in the fridge, warm up in the microwave, and look a lot better than beat-up old plastic pieces at the table. For the storage line, Pyrex combines dark blue plastic lids with its reliable glass construction, adding versatility and stackability to the design. This 6-piece set includes three round dishes--2 cups, 4 cups, and 7 cups--and matching lids. Rectangular pieces are also available, and all are safe in the dishwasher for easy cleanup. --Emily Bedard
Rating: - Air tight!
A little pricey, but these are super high quality. Air tight and thick durable pyrex glass. Wash easily and make the left overs in the fridge look a little more appetizing than my cheap plastic containers did.

This was my sixth order of Pyrex storage items in the past ten months. I now own 44 containers (plus 44 lids) in various sizes from 1 cup to 7 cups. There are always several in the freezer, many in the refrigerator, a handful in the cupboard, a few in the dishwasher and one or two storing bulk ingredients in the pantry. With the clear bowls, refrigerated leftovers are no longer forgotten until it's too late.
If you're purchasing Pyrex storage pieces for the first time this is a great starter set. If you're not sure which size(s) are best for your household, start with this set (one ... Read More

I'm one of those people who saves her cottage cheese and salsa containers to put leftovers in. However, they have a short shelf life, and are not large enough for some food storage. Plus, some sources tell you not to heat up food in plastic containers due to the chemicals that may leech out.
For all those reasons, I purchased this set of Pyrex containers. While slightly too heavy to comfortably carry when I bike commute, they are unbeatable for home use. The three sizes mean i have a container for any kind of food - a little applesauce up to a large dinner-sized salad for two. Highly ... Read More

I had fairly recently invested in a set of Rubbermaid Premier containers when the news got out about BPA (bisphenol-A) leaching into foods from plastic.
I didn't want to invest in more plastic -- even grades of plastic that are currently considered safe. I decided to go with glass. And I'm glad I did.
This set is one of three that I purchased. I also bought the Pyrex Storage 6-Piece Refrigerator Shape Storage, Clear with Blue Lids and the Pyrex Storage 18-Piece Round Set, Clear with Blue Lids. With these three sets together, I feel like I've got plenty for my storage needs ... Read More

Good-bye tupperware and rubbermaid. I don't think I'll ever use anything but Pyrex for food storage, again. It wears beautifully...no scuffs, discoloration or wear marks. It heats in the oven or microwave beautifully (I don't use the lids in the microwave). But best of all, my son was home for the holidays and when he opened the frig he commented, "Wow. Nicest tupperware I've ever seen." The price is really good, too, considering these will probably outlast any of my plastic storage pieces. Also, I was never too concerned about plastic leaching out into my food from microwave use, but now I'm not concerned ... Read More
