Glassware & Dinnerware

American tempered-glass bakeware from one of the country’s last great glass furnaces.

★★★★½ 4.4 Best American Glass Bakeware

Since 1905, Anchor Hocking has made glass in Lancaster, Ohio — home to one of the last major consumer-glass furnaces still running in America. If you want oven-to-table bakeware that will outlast your recipe box, this two-pack of 9-inch tempered-glass pie plates is the everyday American standard, and it costs about what a single imported dish would.

Anchor Hocking 9-inch glass pie plate
Quick Verdict

Dependable, oven-safe American bakeware at a value price. Made in Ohio from tempered glass that handles the oven, freezer, and dishwasher, and sold as a two-pack so you always have a spare. It is plain, workaday glass — no formal warranty — but for pies, casseroles, and everyday baking, it is exactly what you want and genuinely made here.

Pros & Cons

Pros

  • Genuinely made in Lancaster, Ohio at a historic American glass furnace
  • Tempered glass is oven-, freezer-, microwave-, and dishwasher-safe
  • Two-pack value — about $21 for a pair of 9-inch plates
  • Clear glass lets you watch crusts and casseroles brown
  • Oven-to-table looks and everyday durability

Cons

  • Plain, workaday design — not a showpiece
  • No formal breakage warranty
  • Like all glass, it can break with thermal shock or a hard drop

In Use

In the oven

Tempered glass heats evenly and browns crusts nicely, and the clear sides let you check the bottom of a pie without lifting it. It moves from freezer to oven and into the dishwasher without drama, which is why glass bakeware endures in American kitchens.

Everyday value

Buying a two-pack means one is always clean and ready, and the low price makes it painless to replace if one ever breaks — while still buying American. For the money, it is hard to do better.
