A note on thermal shock
The downside of glass and ceramic is that they are both susceptible to thermal shock. Thermal shock occurs when parts of a dish expand or contract at different rates when coming in contact with a hot or cold surface. This difference in expansion can lead to shattering. Glass is more susceptible to thermal shock than porcelain and other ceramics.
There are steps you can take to avoid thermal shock. Never put an empty dish in a heated oven. Also, if you have a meal frozen in a baking dish, let it sit on your counter for a while before popping it in the oven. It may also be helpful to place your baking dish on a towel once you take it out of the oven rather than putting it directly on a cold counter.
