Reviews
"This is my second purchase for Cuisinart crepe pan. There are many pics available for this pan on internet. You can not go wrong with this pan."
"I like the size and weight of this skillet. One issue I'm having is that it seems to be slow to heat."
"The lid design is a minor drawback--it performs well for sealing and steaming food but is a bit cumbersome to set it down on the counter when it's hot."
"This is a great non-stick stock pot, but it is smaller than the measurements indicate."
"We love this pan...bought two...BUT after about 2 months the nonstick value is going fast and dosas stick all the time...so we cannot use it."
"The extra handle on the pan helps a lot in manuvering the pan for the weight of the pan to carry and move or pick up. Now, I think because were more use to the handling of the fry pan we really like it."
"She once made a comment that if only she had a thin crepe pan with even heat distribution, she would make crepes more often."
"The glass in the lid broke and the handle on the lid buckled in into the pan. Don't buy this pan, if you buy it don't use the lid. I have solid evidence to what happened to the pan just 20 days after I bought the pan."

Reviews
"This is the third enameled iron pan I've purchased, and the combination of functionality, weight and price are very hard to beat. Iron retains heat and gets hotter than other types of pans, which causes burning and sticking. Weight-wise, the Cuisinart and Le Creuset are manageable, and the Lodge is very heavy (it is a workout to wash and dry)."
"As an amateur cook, I like to avail myself of quality cookware for good results and tasty food. Over the years I have collected a few "Le Creuset" pots of various sizes, from Cocottes to 5 Qt., and they have weathered the test of time and frequent use. Recently, I needed an oval shaped Dutch oven for fish recipes and discovered the Cuisinart enameled cast iron 5 ½-Qt. oval casserole (Dutch Oven) at a price less than ⅓ of a similar "Le Creuset". Easy to clean with dish soap and warm water (Recommended) - no matter the residual. I recommend "seasoning" the exposed cast iron on the rim of the cover and the pot itself - rub the edges with oil and put it in a 350 degree oven for about an hour and let it cool off before using it."
"This is an absolutely beautiful piece both in the lovely robins egg blue color and the design."
"Love this pan and it doesn't scratch up my glass top stove."
"This is an excellent Dutch Oven."
"I own a Lodge enamel pot(6 years) and a Le Cruset (15 years)."
"This item does not have same quality as the large 5.5 qt."

Package Quantity: 1 |. Size: 3 Qt. Clear, nonporous Pyrex glass won't stain or absorb odors.
Reviews
"Was glad to find them online with Amazon because the local stores seem to only sell the easy grab dishes which I don't like because only one at a time fits in my oven."
"On the old dish the handles measured from underneath are 3 inches."
"For as long as I can remember in my married life, I've always had one of these versatile baking dishes."
"OMG, FORGET ABOUT METAL PANS - oh, I bought a non-stick metal pan this size which worked a couple of times but the coating wore off and became difficult to clean."
"Although the quality seems consistent with all other Pyrex bakeware I’ve owned, the dimensions are measured differently from what is most likely now called “Vintage.” The older bake dish is 7x11 at the top AND the base."
"It fits into my small electronic counter small oven!"
"Pros: large, durable, high-utility, easy to clean, clear. Cons: the handles are not very robust and can lead to slips while wearing oven mitts. This dish is great for meatloaf, casseroles, etc."
"I have been using Pyrex all my life."

Reviews
"The first covered casserole I received had a bulge on the bottom and would not set flat on the burner. The second casserole I received was perfect! It works wonderfully well as an open or covered skillet as well as it's intended purpose of a casserole. Update: 05/05/2016.......I use this covered casserole all of the time, not only for casseroles, chili, soups, stews, etc., but also for bacon, eggs, sauteed foods, and a myriad of other tasks!"
"Like most cast-iron products it takes a while to heat up."
"It cleans up well and does the job of much more expensive cast products."
"So if you have a regular stove it's a great pan to have."
"I absolutely love this!"
"Purchased this for my husband."
"I love the rich color and quality of this pan."
"This is a heavy braiser but easy to lift from stovetop to oven with the handles as the cast iron is a solid piece."

Reviews
"The item came packaged correctly and unopened (New in box) but one of the lids had a side piece that was cracked, which means the cover will not stay on correctly."
"As far as 'safety' the lids are plastic, seemingly very high quality as well, but they may melt if you aren't careful."
"I purchased this set because I liked the sizes of the dishes and especially because Pyrex is made here in the USA!"
"One lid didn't fit correctly (the lid for the smaller oblong pan)."
"I use them everyday and they are working well for refrigerator storage warming up in the microwave."
"I purchased these because every metal pan I’ve purchased rusted!"
"We really like being able to pop these in the microwave from the fridge without worrying about plastic."
"Not only have I spent an hour of my life scrubbing out my oven, picking up tiny little glass pieces from parts of my oven that I didn't know about (which I was completely ok with by the way). I have wasted 2 full boxes of scalloped potatoes! I am now off to pick out the tiny little pieces of glass from my hands."
