Marinex 5-1/2-Quart Prediletta Deep Rectangular Baking Dish

Marinex uses Boro Plus, maybe not true borosilicate glass

I bought this baking dish for 2 reasons: I wanted glassware but other then Pyrex or Anchor, and I wanted a dish slightly larger and deeper than the usual 9×13. In the end, I think I made the right choice on the dimensions aspect, but not the material.

My 9×13 fits nicely nested in this one which you can consider a 10×15. I found it to be a great improvement over the former for any lasagna, moussaka, parmentier, gratin, soufle type of dish, and larger pieces of meat.

Marinex 5-1/2-Quart Prediletta Deep Rectangular Baking Dish

weight = 1.92 kg – 4.23 lb

capacity = 4.67 L – 4 15/16 qt

exterior = 40.4 x 24.9 x 7 cm – 15 7/8″ x 9 3/4″ x 2 3/4″

interior = 35 x 23 x 6.5 cm – 13 6/8″ x 9 1/16″ x 2 1/2″

But why glassware? Are all similarly priced non-stick really toxic? Is stainless steel that much more expensive? Isn’t porcelain or ceramic a better alternative? Not too sure…

Pefect deep dish at an excellent price!

I was looking for a deeper dish casserole and this was perfect. A HUGE dish for a very fair price. Handles on the side are added bonus. People like the light blue tint & simple design. I’ve received several compliments. The borosilicate glass seems thicker than my Pyrex & Anchor Hocking items, but lighter. I’ve used at 500 degrees F w/no problems. Marinex says oven safe to 572 degrees. I also bought the smaller 3qt dish & the two items nest perfectly inside each other. Love this! FYI: Current Pyrex is NOT made from borosilicate glass. Borosilicate used in laboratory glass (beakers, etc) because it can handle varying temperature extremes.

Skip the Pyrex, buy this instead

This is a great dish! I’ve used it a dozen times since ordering it and it’s as pretty as it was the day I bought it. No staining at all. It has deep sides and is big enough for about anything, but isn’t oversized by any means. There is also no safety hazard in this dish like new pyrex dishes (google exploding pyrex for some horror stories). This works flawlessly in a 500 degree oven and I’ve had no issues with it.
