Customer Reviews

the most useful thing I bought all year
Its funny how many people have never heard of a microwave cover. Instead of using soggy paper towels, plastic lids, and other coverings for reheating microwave meals, use something designed for the microwave. Made out of dishwasher safe plastic, these covers go direcly over whatever your cooking and protect from splatter. This particular brand comes in sets of two so when one is dirty, the other can be used. Cleaning a microwave is time consuming, these covers saves you this ordeal. These covers are so inexpensive, and are so practical. Its a worthwhile purchase.

Too small
Nice idea, but too small. Not wide enough for my regular dinner plates, and not tall enough for my salad or pasta bowls. As a result, they get almost no use. Two inches wider and taller and I'd be happy.

works, but poorly designed
How hard is it to design a microwave cover? Not that hard, I would imagine. Just design a round cover that fits over most plates and bowls. It seems pretty straight forward.

Progressive manages to botch the job by making a grip that depresses into the top of the cover, rather than extending over the top. Because the cover is so shallow, this little depression dunks itself into the food about 80% of the time, sometimes smooshing the food and always making a mess to clean up afterwards.

This cover gets the job done and saves me money on saran wrap, but I can't help but feel that the designers worked overtime to build a flaw into a fairly foolproof concept.
