Review on Find Pyrex Simply Store Replacement Lids - Ideal for 12 Piece Storage Set (Lids Only) by Bryan Covington

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Bargain, but lid edges can melt in the microwave

Update 6/5/2019: DO NOT USE IN MICROWAVE. One of the lids melted in the microwave. I heated the pasta bowl for 2 minutes. Of course it was too long for the pasta which was very hot but the pasta didn't burn and the lid melted around the edges. I had to throw it away. This is not a sealed lid that can be purchased from the Pyrex website. The versions on the company website are more durable but more expensive, have shipping costs, but you can buy Pyrex wooden lids if you want to lessen the impact of the plastic molecules. They are excellent replacements for old, original detachable caps. --- I bought replacement caps directly from Pyrex and they were more expensive. Also, I had to pay for shipping. Pyrex bowls are way better than plastic utensils because there is enough plastic in our lives even if we don't reheat it in our food. So I only have pyrex glass for storage. Unfortunately, plastic lids are the only things that seal well. I have bought "sealed" pyrex lids and they are harder to fit and I don't need a spill guard unless they are to be packed in a lunch box.

Pros
  • Sturdy construction
Cons
  • No car
