BUT! the top dimensions may be 9x5, but the bottom is 7x4! I feel this could seriously affect a yeast bread, which is my reason for this purchase.
The picture shows a straight sided loaf pan. Oddly enough, the picture that comes attached to these pans shows a straight sided loaf pan.
I'm afraid I'll have to return these in favor of Pyrex, or perhaps stoneware. Such a shame. Two stars for good construction and Anchor Hocking, but the dimensions make these ineligible for me.
Maybe Amazon should correct their picture (or Kitchen Supply?) so people will know about this in advance and have a chance to make an informed decision.

This is an excellent bread pan. Glassware heats very evenly, I have other glass bakeware, and a ceramic. Glassware doesn't leach anything to my knowledge, though with bread it's almost a mute point as bread is not really acidic.I like it for its thermal properties, ease of cleaning, and its food safety.
If you bake, this is it.
Best Deals for Anchor Hocking 5 Inch x 9 Inch Glass Loaf Dish
When I used any sort of metal pans, no matter how I adjusted oven temp or what coating or lining I used I continued to have quick breads come out too brown on the outside and often not completely done on the inside. I finally switched to these and am very pleased. Breads come out very evenly baked. I reduce the oven temp by 25 degrees but use approximately the time recommended by the recipes. Spray them first with non-stick spray. Pans bake well and clean up easily.Honest reviews on Anchor Hocking 5 Inch x 9 Inch Glass Loaf Dish
I am looking for a loaf pan that is a true rectangle shape. This, like most others, is much wider at the top; more narrow on the bottom. I returned it to Amazon, no problem.Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Anchor Hocking 5 Inch x 9 Inch Glass Loaf Dish
My bread definitely rose higher and made better loaves in these glass pans as compared to the metal pans I have usually used.
