Are the 6-cup rectangular storage dishes suitable for oven use? Or are they strictly for storage purposes?

They are definitely microwave and oven safe, just not the tops. Great set and the carrying bag is wonderful!

I don't think you can. They are dishwasher safe and microwave safe, but none of the information I have says they are safe in the oven and I have never tried them in the oven. The bakeware pieces, of course, can be put in the oven, but I wouldn't try with the plates.

Depends on what you are considering storage. The fridge and oven hold very ltitle (can't store everything in there). We have ours set up long wise not tall so you can put containers underneath

The manufacturer markets them as "storage bowls". There is no claim that they are oven safe. I have personally used them successfully in the microwave but not the oven.

They are multi-functional. They hold 6 ounces, and work well in the freezer. Any kind of milk, puree or mashed food will store nicely in them.

I have never used them in the oven. I bought them to use in the microwave and as a lid for food in the refrigerator. I think you should ask the manufacturer.

I do not have the 11cup size but I have other pyrex containers and they are all oven proof except the lid--so I think you can use this in the oven for baking safely--without the lid, of course.

I would agree with the previous two answers. Maybe not a good idea for freezer to microwave. But a great set of sturdy attractive glasses and the lids are so handy to have. I have a set at my cabin and they get used for all kinds of things in addition to being good beverage glasses. I think I will order a couple of sets for the house. I could not find any specs on websites for oven use either.

I wouldn't. I believe they'd probably leak because of the inserts and you'd wind up with soggy crusts. I just filled a 9x13 dish with an inch or so of water and put it on the bottom rack of the oven while mine were baking, and everything turned out fine. I do that with my regular springform pans when baking cheesecake also - never a problem.

yes. I use them for shepard pies. the bowls are oven proof. not the lids, of course.

These are dishes, not bakeware. I would not put them in the oven. Too beautiful to risk.

Yes. I currently store a toaster oven, a flava wave, crock pot and two George Forman grills on one shelf and I store heavy duty deep stock pots and a stack of heavy aluminum pots on the bottom shelf. It's a surprisingly strong unit. I also keep a ceramic utensil holder on the overhead shelf and some smaller odds and ends up there. I have my keurig coffee maker sitting on the butcher's block portion of the unit.

They are not fancy so if you are looking to store something for yourself they would be fine. If you are looking to store and sell, these are probably not the containers for that. Hope this helps.

You can store anything in them, they have a good seal. I use them for leftovers and store spices in a smaller carosel, but it may work for large quantities. These hold approx. 1.5 cups+ and they stack well. You can also see what you have on the shelf or fridge. Sheera

I doubt that it is recommended although I do not know what the manufacturer says about that. Storage in pyrex pans is OK, but metal pans, even those with coating, are not good for storage beyond the day of preparation.

I've never tried the oven. But they are dishwasher safe and microwave save for sure.

I think any fairly air tight container would work. One nice thing about these is the height allows me to mix and store in the same container. If it was much smaller, this wouldn't work and I'd have to dirty up two things to make dough.
