If you're curious the only brand I could find easily purchasable in the USA that uses borosilicate glass is oxo. Their are some other results if you do a search on amazon, but I'm not very convinced those are really borosilicate glass.

If you want borosilicate Pyrex, go to church bazaars and yard sales. The old stuff is better anyway.

That seems the case for just about any product these days, unfortunately. In the modern world, all the products are cheaper but they all suck.

You can relatively easily check this before buying, just look for the tint (usually best seen on the edges of the glass). Blueish = borosilicate, greenish = soda lime.

Don’t forget glowing green for uranium.
