description wrong on Amazon
The product was described as "10.2 x 5.5 x 6.2" which measured closely to my old au gratin dishes that I was replacing.
However, they are actually 7.6 x 4.5 x 1.8.
The website that makes them [...] does not have measurements, and neither does [...].
So, I'll keep them because they are pretty and will work for certain things, just not what I wanted them for.
Is it too much to ask that descriptions be accurate?
Size Description. is Inaccurate!!!!
I give this 3 stars because of how its described. Specifically the SIZE. I bought these because I thought they would be a good set. The only problem I have found with these dishes. These are Individual portioned sized. And while lovely are not as wide as long and no where near as deep as descpribed. rather than L10.2 x W5.5 x D6.5 these are L 7.5 x W 4.5 x D 2.5 (and the 2.5 depth is at the handles the center is only about 1.5)
These are nice pieces that I will use when making special dinners, for me and my husband mostly. It was not what I purchased these for.
They work wonderfully. Are dishwasher, microwave, even freezer Safe. Oven safe to 500'F. And work wonderfully for making special night dishes.
Personal Au Gratin Dishes
These dishes are very cute - but small (helps with portion control!) I am concerned however with the longevity of these dishes - they are made of a very thin ceramic. Comparing them to my fiesta ware dishes makes me think they will chip/break easily - time will tell. I also wanted to get the lasagna dish and other oval bakers but now i'm thinking twice about that. If they are as thin as these they will break for sure. Overall I am happy with the purchase but will be very careful with them.
UPDATE 9-15-2012: I am happy to report that after nearly two years of use these have not broke nor chipped. I don't use them a whole lot because they are quite small but I do use them occasionally and have put them through the dishwasher with no problems.
