Glass Food Storage Containers are now Available in Many Homeware Stores
I used to stock Anchor Hocking's Glass Food Storage Containers (see the photo below, left) because I couldn't find any other glass food storage containers that are rectangular in shape (which saves a LOT of space in my fridge) but now Pyrex (who makes the best quality glass, so a glass manufacturer and a chemist told me!) is offering rectangular glass food storage containers too (see the photo below, right) and their products are available in many homeware stores.
Pyrex new Bake, Serve N Store comes with glass lid as well as BPA free plastic lid. The glass lid has a seal around it so air can't escape like the Anchor Hocking ones. Pyrex also feels lighter than Anchor Hocking. The ones I saw in my local homeware store are selling between $20-30 each. If your local homeware store does not stock Pyrex, it doesn't hurt to ask if they would order Pyrex in for you. If you're only after glass containers (rather than rectangular ones), there are plenty of round glass containers available in supermarkets.

Glass Baby Bottles - A Brief Review
I
personally prefer to use Glass Baby Bottles than the BPA-free plastic
ones. Babies are not supposed to be bottle fed without supervision or
running around with their baby bottles anyway so I don't see the need
for using plastic ones. All my children are fed breastmilk first then
formula with Glass Baby Bottles. I started with the traditional glass
baby bottles, then Silikids, and now I'm using Coddlelife.
What makes Coddlelife different from the other glass baby bottles is that it's very light weight. When I first received my sample, I thought I made a mistake and ordered a plastic bottle! Also, with its wide neck,
Coddlelife Glass Baby Bottle is very easy to hold. Most glass baby
bottles are still made with the traditional narrow-neck design but
Coddlelife has merged the goodness of glass and the modern baby bottle
design together and created the wide-neck glass baby bottle.
Same as Silikids and some brands of glass baby bottles, CoddleLife has silicone wraps
available for purchase separately which offers extra protection from
burning and breakage. One big plus with Coddlelife silicone wrap is, it
is very easy to slip on and off unlike some other brands. A cheaper way
to invest in the CoddleLife Glass Baby Bottle is to buy one or two
silicone wraps (depending on your budget), then as many glass baby
bottles as you need (depending on how often you feed e.g. do you
breastfeed as well as bottle feed or do you entirely bottle feed?)
There
is also stainless steel baby bottles available on the market. But they
are single layered which means it will be very hot to touch when I'm
making the formula. I thought it doesn't quite make sense so I don't
have them in my shop. If you have tried the stainless steel baby
bottles and love them, please feel free to send your personal product
review to meat info@ashnjuls.com.au to help me decide to stock those stainless steel baby bottles or not.
