1.0 out of 5 stars DANGEROUS December 7, 2010

By Tom o'Bedlam

In case you haven't read the January issue of Consumer Reports yet, let me summarize: Corning sold Pyrex to World Kitchen, who is using cheaper glass which makes it more likely to shatter from heat. The European Pyrex still uses the traditional Pyrex formula and is as heat-resistant as ever. Consumer Reports says: "We baked at least five samples of each brand in a 450-degree oven. All of the U.S. Pyrex and Anchor dishes shattered when placed on the wet countertop. None of the European dishes ... broke"
Amazon sells the European product:[ [ASIN:B002KHNQ3E Arcuisine Elegance Glass 2.8 Quart Rectangular Baker]]

1.0 out of 5 stars not like the old ones June 27, 2012

By Colleen B. Gilmartin

My Pyrex baking dish came out of the oven, was placed on the counter and exploded! It's no long the same "from freezer to oven" product. Shards of glass flew in ever direction and melted my area rugs..which had to be thrown out because the glass burned them through to the floor...and terrible burns to my feet. Save yourself a nightmare...wasted food and destroyed property and injury...DON'T PURCHASE THIS!!!!

2.0 out of 5 stars Heard a loud BOOM. Dish split in half. January 2, 2011

By D. Milder

I've used Pyrex for 10 years. This dish is probably a couple years old. Today I made cinnamon rolls at 400 degrees for about 18 minutes. I set it on the stove to cool - this is how I've always done it. About a minute later there was a big BOOM and the baking dish had cracked in two. Thankfully, it was a clean cut and my glass countertop didn't break from pressure.

But it was loud, totally scared me, now I'm afraid to buy another one.

The stovetop was not wet, it was room temperature. Apparently, you need to cool glass on a rack or on dry pot holders that allow circulation below or it will explode.
