Which is better for meal prep?

The M MCIRCO 10-pack, if you portion full meals: ten 22 oz bowls cover a week of lunches. The Pyrex 2-cup containers suit smaller snacks and sides.

Which is cheaper per container?

The Pyrex set at $9.99 as of November 6, 2026 is far cheaper per piece, but each container holds only 2 cups. The MCIRCO set works out to about $4 per 22 oz container at $39.99.

Are both microwave safe?

Pyrex states its containers and lids are microwave safe. MCIRCO's listing only states glass, so check the lid before microwaving with it on.

Both are glass, which resists staining and odors. Pyrex states dishwasher-safe containers and stain resistance; MCIRCO does not state either, so its lids are the unknown.

Is the MCIRCO set worth the extra $30?

Yes if you need ten large containers for batch cooking. If you only pack small portions, the Pyrex set covers it for far less.
