Take the money you would have spent on these pie weights and buy yourself some dessert instead! Instead pour some dried beans onto a scrap of foil placed on your unbaked pie crust. I bought these pie weights a year or so ago and have gone back to the beans. I was not impressed with this product at all. I saw no difference between using beans and these weights. The pie weights are very light, so lightweight that a few of them cracked or slightly crumbled after falling on the floor. True, these weights are washable but with beans that cost a few cents you can either reuse them or just throw them away without adding small little balls to the piles of dishes you'll have to wash.
I guess all in all, stick to the beans!
