Anchor Hocking

sunshine 919 — Sat, 16 Mar 2024 20:57:40 GMT

I just ordered the Anchoring Set on HSN. I ordered the pink set. I have purchased some from Walmart. This set is under 30.00 free shipping. 8 pieces with lids.

I love my Anchor Hocking, I like the lids that come with the flaps on them, the others tend to get distorted in microwave.

Thanks @sunshine 919 . I just ordered the blue set. I already have Pyrex glass storage pieces but I like the tab on these lids. The arthritis in my hands makes the Pyrex lids painful to open. Hoping the tabs will make these easier to open.

I hope the lids work out for you

I have eliminated plastic food storage in my kitchen and replaced everything with glass. I use a lot of mason jars, but I also have some Anchor Hocking sets for leftovers and individual meals. The lids fit well. I've gifted a few sets to our kids too.

Hello everybody, sad to say I cannot give you my review. My set arrived shattered. My son said it looked like glass confetti lol. Could not have explained it better. Of course the set is sold out. I am getting a full refund. Not sure if I will order glass wear again. Please let me know from those who ordered if you received yours in tact. I hope yours will arrive in better condition.

Oh no! I will definitely post on the condition of my set when it arrives. (fingers crossed)

In the same process, going to glass. Have you used the plastic lids for Mason jars? Liking them a lot.

That's interesting because I've been going from glass to plastic. I've noticed more and more that I don't care for the weight of the glass any longer, plus I've been dropping things more and more.

So sorry this happened. The same thing happened with a set of mason jars I ordered from Amazon. What a mess.

I just love this brand I have so many of them in different sizes and colors. I use them everyday. The bigger bowls are heavy, but I'm just careful when using them.

Sorry to hear your Anchor Hocking set arrived shattered. I've ordered other HSN AH sets and they arrived without a problem. Use them daily, clean up well, and still look brand new. Take care.

My set arrived today in perfect condition. I'm so pleased with the quality and sorry that you didn't receive an unbroken set to enjoy for yourself. These tops are sooo much easier for me to open with my arthritis than the Pyrex storage pieces I've been using. Thanks so much for pointing out this great buy.

I am so happy I love the pieces that I have purchased from Walmart. My fridge looks so much nicer and they do clean up really well. I will be on the look out for another set. I will try to order one more time lol. Enjoy your set. What color did you get.

I have never liked the Anchor Hocking glass quality. The lids may be fine but nothing compares to Pyrex glass. We just put in new kitchen LVP so i stick with non-bpa plastic. Also easier to open/close with my arthritic hand.
