CorningWare Classic Square Casserole 3L

Update 5/3/19 This is a cracking piece of kit, its been used a number of times now and has been perfect for casseroling, brazing, curries and browning the meat on the hob prior to making the dishes up. The square shape lends its self well to using on the gas hob (ours is a 900cm) and the capacity large enough to make for the family. I recommend this thoroughly my only reservation is the price which seems to have gone up enormously since we bought the Casserole a few months ago. Original review Replacement for a similar Casserole dish that got broken, early days but this Corning Ware 5Lt has worked well, the shape is also good and it runs on the hob fine. Four stars at present but I will review again later on when we have more experience of it, I suspect it will be up to five stars. AJC

Working long hours I always put the dinner on a timer in the oven. This size casserole is perfect for putting sliced carrots in for 3-4 people, One floret of broccoli each and one floret of cauliflower. Cuts down on having to do a lot of washing up and if you get the timing right all cooked just right. It looks so nice can be used as a serving dish as well. Good grip handles for getting out of the oven. Cleans easily in the dish washer and doesn't take up a lot of space

Very good quality

Such a versatile cooking pot. We use it on the stove to brown off the meat and then just add the rest of the ingredients before placing it into the oven to cook a casserole or stew. This ability to be used either on the hob, in the oven or both makes it ideal for cooking so many things and it is attractive enough to be used on the table as a serving dish. It's also very robust and cleans easily. Can definitely recommend.

I like it's shape, size and sturdiness to used to prepare Maggie and soups as well bowl to serve in same pot., gas stove to serving table to enjoy.

This casserole dish is expensive. It can be heated or cooked in many ways; I use it on a ceramic hob with good results. The heat is distributed very evenly across the bottom. It is a little slow, only a little. The results are good. I would have liked it to be a little larger about 1.5 litre. I am very pleased with it and I expect it to last a long time. If in the unlikely event of it breaking I will purchase another if the price is about the same.

I have had a set of these dishes for over 30 years. This was a replacement for one that my husband dropped. I find it hard to believe that these aren't more widely available. They go on the hob, in the oven, under the grill, in the microwave, in the freezer and are dishwasher proof too. In the US and far east they're very common. Why are they so expensive in the UK? I don't know, but you won't regret buying it.

Cheap and tiny
