1) Great size for family sized lasagna, potato gratin and generously sized dishes;
2) Bakes evenly with no "hot spots";
3) Glaze is so smooth and without defects so often found on cheaper bakers that clean up is super easy;
4) You can stick this in fridge, freezer, oven, dishwasher without worrying wheather it will crack (the only place you cannot use this is the stove);
5) It looks so good that it can go directly from oven to table; and
6) The handles are perfect for getting a secure grip when handling in mitts, but not too protrusive that storage in fridge would be a hassle.
The cons are:
1) Price;
2) No cover.
But, over the years, I have purchased and cherished many Emile Henry baking dishes and there is simply no comparison they look as beautiful now as 20 years ago when I started collecting different ones.

Wow! I just had to make two back-to-back dishes of my Crepes Ensenada and needed to hurry doing it. So I made one full dish, cooled it, took it out, and without cleaning it first (I never would do that with any other dish!), baked another full dish. Yes, I had to use a scraper on it after it soaked, but it came out clean, without too much time spent doing it too. No scratches and lovely crepes to boot. The only thing about this dish is that, because of its size, one has to be very careful washing/rinsing it, so it is not banged in the sink. If banged, like glass, it may crack at a future date.The color is a bit darker than the picture of the red Cherise and the yellow Citron dishes. Of course, when one is viewing colors on a computer, the type of graphics card and its settings can cause variations on the color we see vs. the color that the host site is actually displaying.

I have two in this size. Absolutely, hands down -- love this baker. It cleans beautifully, I made lasagna for Christmas dinner, of course some cheese burned onto this baker............ cleaned like a champ. Looks brand new. The price can't be beat.And as I always state with Emile Henry, Le Crueset, Fiestaware....... they are safe to cook in. No toxins being released into your food. For "me" this trumps all of the other wonderful qualities!
Great purchase.
Honest reviews on Emile Henry 14.5" x 11" Lasagna Dish
Well I love Emile Henry, so I knew this would be a great purchase. I made Baked Ziti and did it in a plain Pyrex 9"x13" dish. And it was jam packed. Almost mounded on top. Had to bake it on a cookie sheet so it could bubble over. So I wanted to get a slightly bigger dish to have some more room. At first I was worried it would be too big because it says its 5 quarts. (The 9x13 is a 3 quart). But the size is PERFECT. It doesn't look like it is almost twice the size of the 9x13. But I filled it up with water and sure enough it holds 5 quarts. I love this dish. I know it will get tons of use. I decided on yellow and it is soooo pretty. Great investment!Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Emile Henry 14.5" x 11" Lasagna Dish
I bought this as a gift for a good friend as I was given one about ten years ago. If you invest in this type of baking dish, you will be rewarded by the longevity and quality of the product. However, Amazon had to send me two, as the first one broke on the way to me, not wrapped well enough, so the gift was late...One really nice thing about the Emile Henry pottery is that the food does not stick. After years on my lasagne pan, I have no blackened leftovers or stains. I highly recommend these dishes and wish I could afford more of them!
