The Best-Selling Pyrex Storage Set That Has Customers Pledging To Buy Multiple

Available in an assortment of shapes and styles, Pyrex containers are perfect for storing and reheating leftovers. Made of soda lime glass, they don't absorb odors or become stained either, like their plastic counterparts, which means they always look pristine after a dishwasher cycle. However, there's one particular variety of Pyrex storage set that's a best-seller and has customers pledging to buy multiple.

Priced at $75, the Pyrex ultimate 10-piece glass storage set with glass lids has an identical glass base to many other sets. Durable and hardwearing, the transparent material it's made from makes it easy to see what's inside when layering a lasagna or grabbing leftovers from the fridge. The key difference in this set and other Pyrex options is that the lid is made of glass and silicone, versus plastic. This means that each glass container, including the lid, can be safely used in the microwave or in a preheated oven (as well as the freezer and dishwasher). In contrast, other Pyrex lids made of plastic are not oven safe, so you can't keep the lid on them when heating through a homemade freezer meal.

One customer on the Pyrex website who gave the set a five star review said "Love it, we're going to buy a second set," while another said, "I've just completed converting my food storage containers to glass with this set. They are great. I love how well they seal, how much they hold, and how easy they are to clean. And, they look beautiful!"

The Pyrex ultimate set includes three round and two rectangular containers; the white silicone seal around the perimeter of each glass lid makes them airtight and leakproof. However, you can still see the contents of each container through the clear center of each lid. This makes it easier to find exactly what you're looking for when hunting through a full freezer as well as check if the topping on your cheesy casserole has turned bubbly and golden while it's in the oven. Plus, the leakproof seal means you won't get any spillages in your handbag if you plan on using it as a lunch box. The phrase "release air to seal" is embossed across the corner of each lid, reminding consumers of how to make them airtight. While Pyrex makes many best-selling products, including a range of containers with locking tabs, these lids again are not suitable for the oven.

One shopper on the Pyrex website said, "I love the glass/silicone lids! They are easier to remove than the plastic lids when contents are frozen, and they're more durable than the plastic." Another described the lids as "far better than the plastic ones I've had in every way. Plus, with all the information coming out about microplastics, the less plastic that is created and used, the better."
