A versatile collection, SimplyLite is made from a super-lightweight glass that acts like traditional glass or ceramic in use. Surprisingly durable, this material makes its easier to retrieve the dishes from high or low shelves, allows for nesting storage, and gives the cook's arms a break. A smart choice for daily meals, SimplyLite comes in a crisp white with rounded corners, clean profiles, and integrated handles. All pieces are notably easy to clean by hand or in the dishwasher.

From the Manufacturer

Form and function are combined in an innovative and stylish next-generation bakeware, the CorningWare® SimplyLite™ collection, which delivers the cooking performance of traditional ceramic bakeware but at half the weight* of comparably shaped ceramic stoneware baking dishes. (*On average versus the leading ceramic bakeware brand.)

Made in America, CorningWare® SimplyLite™ bake and serveware is made of Vitrelle™ glass laminate, a proprietary advanced material made of three layers of glass which produces a bakeware with a durability far exceeding that of any single glass composition.

An alternative to weightier ceramic dishes, the SimplyLite™ collection was developed in response to market research that strongly indicated a consumer desire for bake and serveware that is easier to handle and maneuver in and out of the oven, to carry from kitchen to table and for guests to pass while entertaining.

SimplyLite™ bakeware offers real space-saving solutions, as well. The dishes with glass and plastic storage lids are designed to nest and stack within just 12 inches, leaving cabinets free for other storage.

And the bakeware is designed for effortless cleanups. The Vitrelle™ glass produces a smooth, non-porous surface that is both stain and odor resistant and dishwasher safe. Available in pure white, the CorningWare® SimplyLite™ bakeware collection is available in a variety of sets and open stock pieces.

Stylish accessories, including serving cradles, multi-functional serving pieces and portable carriers for transporting dishes, add to the contemporary look of the SimplyLite™ collection.

Features and Benefits:

• 50% lighter*; 100% Corningware®
• Easy to clean glass

Taking Care of CorningWare® SimplyLite™ Bakeware:

Glass lids can also be used in a microwave oven, refrigerator, or freezer. Plastic lids can be used in a microwave oven, refrigerator, or freezer; plastic lids are not oven-safe.

Prior review must be CorningWare Employee.

I do NOT have Arthritis and find it nearly impossible to remove plastic lids; especially when dish comes out for the refrigerator.

Look at the photo and ask yourself how/where you would hold the dish as you pry-up on lid-removal TAB? The rounded bottom makes this an interesting task.

"Bakeware" but only (2) dishes have glass lids.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not the Corningware I remember, June 24, 2010

This review is from: CorningWare SimplyLite 13-Piece Bakeware Set (Kitchen)

This product is Corelle vitrelle glass, not the porcelain or ceramic Corningware of the 1970s & 1980s. The Corelle is lighter in weight, and less versatile. For example, it's not for stovetop use. The design limits of vitrelle prevent the vessels from having ideal shapes, so the lids tend to slide off. We returned this item and bought vintage CorningWare on eBay.
