Silicone Food Lids - Set of 5 Colorful BPA Free Suction Covers - Heat Resistant Microwave Lids for Bowls, Cups, Pots and Pans - StoveTop, Oven, Fridge and Freezer Safe.

Great value with this set. I use the small one for covering my coffee or tea to help keep it warm when I am drinking it slowly. I use the next size in my tub because my tub stopper quit working. I use the others to cover bowls and pots because it can take the eat very well. It also works great over a bowl in the refrigerator and saves me from using foil or plastic wrap. Great for a small kitchen, eco-friendly, nontoxic, and handy.

BOTTOM LINE> Terrific for many uses. However, not the best choice for long term food storage. I find them VERY useful for covering containers for cooking in my microwave and for temporarily protecting bowls of food out on my counter.FOOD STORAGE> The lids just "sit" on top of the bowl (etc.) and are not held in place, so they can be easily bumped off. By coincidence (?) the lids are usually exactly the diameter of most bowls (etc), which means if they are bumped, then a gap is left, and the contents are left less-protected.>The lids themselves are "floppy", and therefore you cannot stack containers covered with these lids. The bottom line is that the lids are terrific to cover a bowl or two in the fridge for a few minutes to a few hours---but in practice, they don't work too well for long term storage.> Forget about the "vacuum" or "suction" that so many deluded reviews rave about. The lids conform to the lip of the bowl (etc.) and therefore seal well---but they don't "stick" as some reviewers imply---they are just lids. You CAN make a vacuum by lifting the lid by the little handle in the middle, but as soon as you release the lid, the vacuum disappears.> For food storage I recommend Pyrex 6-Piece 2-Cup Glass Food Storage Set with Lids, and other containers of the same brand in different sizes.AS COOKING LIDS> The lids are safe up to about 400 degrees (Fahrenheit). Therefore they are safe for use in microwaves because water boils at 212 degrees (this phenomenon prevents anything that contains much water getting hotter than 212 degrees without burning). CAUTION, do not use the silicon lids for deep frying --- because oil can get much hotter than 400 degrees. CAUTION, the lids get soft when hot, and so may fall into your pot---so use an oversize lid.--> The lids are great for heating food in a microwave, because they do a good job of holding in the steam, but releasing any pressure. Or, you can simply use the silicon lids as a cover to prevent splashing -- even directly on top of food (unless it is very oily). You can use almost any microwave-safe bowl (or similar container) in your microwave to heat foods. Some reviewers complain that it is hard to "leave a gap" to vent steam --- but that's nonsense, any steam pressure just pushes the lids up and escapes.--> The lids are useable for covering sauce pots on your stovetop -- but I find the glass or metal lids which came with the pots to almost always be the better choice.--> The lids may even be used to cover baking dishes in a conventional oven, but I'd only use them for low temperature baking, say < 325 degrees. For normal to high temperature baking, use aluminum foil to cover baking dishes in the oven.--> I have a rectangular silicon lid that I use when microwaving food in a rectangular casserole dish. For many dishes which are normally baked, I cook them in my microwave in a casserole dish (covered with a silicon lid), and finish off with a short uncovered "broil" in my oven to brown the top.AS TEMPORARY COVERS> Surprisingly (at least to me), in addition to microwaving, I use the lids most often to simply cover bowls and plates of food on the counter; to hold in heat before serving; to prevent the food from dying out; or to keep off flies, etc.GENERAL> At $12, the InfiDeals set is a better price than the QooWare (at $19), if you can live without the 4" lid.> The QooWare set comes in a nice retail box, and so makes a good gift.. The InfaDeals comes in a crummy plastic shipping-type envelope, and isn't attractive as a gift.DISADVANTAGES> The only problem I've found is that the lids can sag substantially when they get really hot, and escaping steam can move a lid to the side (with the result that the food you are heating dries up too much). So, usually you don't want to use a lid that "just fits", you want one that's a little "too large", in order to counteract the sagging and shifting.> Click on “Stoney” just below the product title to see my other reviews, or leave a comment to ask a question.

I really like these. I bought them to cover my 6qt instant pot when making yogurt. The red one actually fits perfectly and the largest I've gotta my large skillet. My issue is it stains. I covered a pot i was making curry in and it stained it. It's an aesthetic thing but still annoying since it was my second use.

I love this set of silicone lids of various sizes. They are perfect for my needs from heating tea in the microwave to the big blue lid to cover my cooking pot. Initially I was looking for a stainless steel flat lid to replace the aluminum one for my pot. Glad I found this versatile set. They all work great from cover tea mug to bowls and all the way to the over 10” pot. Love the slim design for easy storage. Very happy with this set.

Was skeptical on getting these lead covers didn’t know if they would work or not. Wow was I surprised. Very versatile and easy to clean up cover the pots nicely

We use these all the time to keep food from splattering. The various sizes help for different sized dishes. Minor complaints are that smallest could be a little larger and largest could be smaller. Maybe it would be good to have a package with 2 of each of 3 in middle. I would definitely buy these again possibly as a gift.Update: lately using these to cover food in refrigerator. Very happy to have them on hand for this second purpose. I don't use the extra large ones much in the microwave. When I make a family meal, they are perfect to cover a large bowl.

This set is remarkable. Why didn't someone come up with this sooner! The varied covers sit over different size bowls, mugs, serving dishes, plates and your food or liquid heat evenly and there is no splatter all over the microwave. We really use one or two of these every day and they still look like new. They clean easily, too!

Pros: colorful, work as expected, durable and easy to clean.Cons: most of the set is too small for my bowls. Only the two largest are useful.

Very practical, better than container lids.

Great for use in the microwave. Work well.

Great array of sizes to cover things, more important acts as a lid for a cast ironpan when it goes into the oven for finishing-and keeps the moisture and splatter in! Good set!
