#6: Lesson Learned the Hard Way
Not all glass is oven safe. You need to carefully vet anything you plan to put into the oven because you don’t want it to explode. Each piece should have a safety rating and temperature listed. Some glass is oven-safe up to 400 degrees. Others can go much higher. Some cannot be put in the oven at all.

Check the bottom of the pan or the manufacturer’s website, and try to purchase a well-known brand. There are quite a few items that you can skimp and save on during the holidays, but cookware is not one of them. A nice oven-safe glass pan should only cost around $20-$40. It’s worth the money and will last a long time!
