Yeah, not real fond of plastics, either. Ours was a 2C Pyrex. Poured very nicely. We have 1C and a 4C that was part of the set, and they do OK. We do have a plastic 2C, but not for the microwave (also, the printing is starting to fade from it...I got it when I went off to grad school). The 2C was our most heavily used before we dropped it.

When mom died, we inherited her stuff. One was an OLD Pyrex 2C, but there is a chip in the pour spout, so it more-than-dribbles. Most of the new Pyrex is a tempered glass, but the old stuff was actually borosilicate. Brittle, but very capable of handling temperature extremes. Borosilicate is still available, but seems to be uncommon now.
