Amazon.com Product Description
This shallow 15-ounce dish is ideal for making individual desserts like crème brulee, serving and storing nuts, or keeping leftovers fresh. Made from sturdy glazed stoneware, it is durable enough to go from freezer to oven and stylish enough to look good on the table. A tight-fitting plastic lid keeps food covered in the fridge or freezer, and the lid features a large tab to make opening easy. The Grab-It dish is dishwasher safe and covered by a 10-year limited warranty.

Customer Reviews

Current version comes only with plastic lid
OVERALL: This product is a solid workhorse. I have six, and they are favorites for convenient storage of leftovers. They stack and are durable. Unlike plastic, the stoneware cleans completely and does not transfer odors. The size is right for 2 normal servings (~1 cup) or one super-sized serving (15 oz.) which can be frozen or reheated in the same container.

If this CorningWare's Grab-It dish still came with the original version's glass lid, it would definitely rate five stars. The current version, however--despite Amazon's product description, which mentions glass AND plastic lids--now comes with a single (opaque) plastic lid. Handy enough, but not as durable as the glass lid or as convenient.

FOR WORK: No one would expect a spillproof seal from the glass lid. I wouldn't count on it with this plastic lid, either. If you are taking something to eat at work that contains even a small amount of liquid, consider leaving this lid at home, and covering the Grab-It with Press N Seal or a similar film--you can poke a few holes in it to vent when reheating it. If you want to use the Grab-It cover, pretest it by filling with water and holdng it at an angle. The manufacturing tolerance for the lid vary. Yours may or may not leak.

AT HOME: For storage of leftovers at home, the glass lids were superior: You could see the contents. For this version, you may want to mark the date on the side using a whiteboard marker to avoid those ghastly green surprises when you clean out the refrigerator. You can also simply use a plastic film, but then you can't stack it.

No On Corningware
Corningware "sold" their product to another company to make and market,
using the Corningware name. Unlike what we grew up with this is
a second rate product. It is NOT like the original composition, but just
stoneware. The top is plastic, not glass.
The original you could cook, bake, grill, using the dish.
You can NOT do ALL this with the "new" Corningware.
Priced like the original quality Corningware but made in China.

A Wall-Mart knock-off would do just as well, at a much better price.

Very Handy

We use these more than any other dishware items in our pantry. They go from the fridge to the microwave to the oven. Plus, they are indestructable, whether dropped, banged in the dishwasher, or otherwise abused. They are pretty small however; U can fit a can of corn or heat up a chicken breast or two in the microwave, but not much more fits into it. We have 8 for a family of 4, and we could use a couple more if we had the space. So buy extras.
