OXO products

peachesncream — Fri, 13 Jan 2017 15:34:07 GMT

I have a new OXO product that I wanted to rave about. It's their line of glass bakeware. I bought the 9 inch pie plate.

There are several things I like about this pie plate. First, it's made of borosilicate glass which is resistant to thermal shock (quick temperature changes). Pyrex, by comparison, is made of cheaper soda-glass. The OXO pie plate can go from freezer to oven.

This pie plate is deeper than my old 9 inch Pyrex pie plates (which are very shallow). I measured and this new pie plate holds up to 6 cups. This will come in handy when making pies with a lot of filling.

The pie plate has a rim that makes it easy to put in or take out of the oven.

And it's inexpensive (especially at Bed Bath & Beyond, where I used a 20% coupon).

I love OXO products, and I love that they're selling this new line of glass dishes (there are other sizes besides the pie plate).

Do you have any OXO products you like, or would recommend?

I have the Oxo liquid measuring beakers, and they are great, especially if you bake. The beakers go down to a teaspoon and are stable and easier than using measuring spoons. I got mine on Amazon, but I think QVC has them.

I love the look of the beakers but hesitate to buy because it seems you wouldn't be able to get out all the stuff you are measuring. I still us spoons. Easier to scrape out if necessary.

I have their tongs which can be closed shut easily. I cook with it. Also have their potato masher, so easy to clean bc of the zig zag design as opposed to small holes.

@software, I just use them for liquids, but I do have a small brush that I can use if I have to.

I have OXO salt & pepper shakers-2 sets. Both have spouts too. I also no longer need to put rice in the salt shaker. No humidity issues w/OXO salt shakers.

I have OXO sugar dispenser

Very tall OXO container which I keep bread in inside the fridge. Puts Lock & Lock to shame.

I love OXO & BBB.

Thanks for this @depglass as my IKEA potato peeler is on it's last legs and I can't justify driving there and spending over $5 in gas and tolls for a dollar peeler. Next time I get BB&B coupons I will look this up!

mtc, I bought their potato peeler about a year ago when my ancient one fell apart. It's the difference between night and day. I love the OXO one.

My mother has great difficulty opening many containers and these can be used much more easily but they are effective too. Love them
