Because I often make things and bring them to family gatherings, these bowls and lids have become indispensable to me. I will NEVER get rid of them or give them away.

The sculptured design is attractive, timeless, and presentable on the dining table. It's also easy to clean and doesn't hold dirt. Because I hand wash, having no dishwasher in my dinky studio apartment, this minor detail is tremendously important.

I like that these are clear class with no coloring; you can easily see the contents of the bowl. The glass also doesn't stain and scratch like plastic storage containers do over time. Mine have some scratches from years of use, but nothing like the gouges you see in old plastic containers.

The dark navy lids do not show stains and that's important for plastics that are used year after year. The lids still fit very well and they're easy to clean on the inside, unlike the aggravating grooves in my mother's old Tupperware containers. If I want to be certain that no leaking occurs during transport to a gathering, depending upon the contents, I cover the bowl with plastic wrap and then put the lid on. So far, so good.

I happened to see this set on display at a grocery store, thought it over a bit and bought it. It's one of the best kitchen purchases I've ever made. It's unfortunate that this set has been discontinued because I consider my set to be invaluable.

If you're very much the practical cook and you often bring food to gatherings, I'd suggest grabbing this set if you ever happen to see it somewhere at a good price.

The bowl sizes are 3 cup, 6 cup, and 10 cup bowls. Matching lids included.

I was very happy with my choice of the pyrex bowls with the lids. I liked the simple design, the weight of the glass(not too heavy)& the nice tight fitting lids. I recommend them & would buy them again.

Great sizes. Nice texture to the bowls, making them simple yet attractive for serving or storing. Lids fit well, and smooth insides make for easy cleaning.

These beat the little plastic food savers all to pieces! Wish I had known about these years ago so I wouldn't have wasted money on the plastic stuff that has to be thrown away after a year's worth of stains and wear. I've even bought a set and several other pieces in the series for my mother so she can throw out some of her old beige tupperware. No more bringing a dish to parties and asking the hostess if she has something nicer to serve it in. I did knock off a star because the lid of the smallest bowl was slightly deformed and it took a pair of pliers to get it to fit on. The lip had been crushed down in two places when it was packaged at the factory(not Amazon's fault). After I actually got it on the bowl, ran it under very hot water & let it set for a couple of days it bent back into shape and has stayed that way.

I use these in the frig, microwave and dishwasher. I like that they are functional and pretty, so I can mix, cook or serve with them. They are pretty enough for taking to a potluck too.

I've had two of the 3 cup bowls for several years now, along with the matching covered "bread pan". I use them all the time and absolutely love them and they still look like new. Thrilled to see the larger bowls are still available - I'm going to buy two sets while I can (1 for me and one for a gift). Wondering why they would discontinue these -altho the price might seem high if you're not aware of the quality.

The bowls are everything I have been looking for and more - lids, attractive for serving, good design for stirring and mixing. I just like glass so much more than plastic for storage and microwaving and these bowls are in three great sizes.

The Pyrex name usually speaks for itself... and it does, with respect to these bowls. Nice "ribbed" design. Great for all kinds of uses.

nice heavy glass, no worries in microwave or dishwasher; like using them to transport food for potluck.

lids are thick and a pretty good seal, though not perfect. (but I haven't put them in the dishwasher in case they warp).

the sizes are useful for small families.
