- Need more improvement in design and manufacturing
I purchased this item based on the reviews. I received mine a few days ago and was instantly disappointed based on a number of things.

1. It's too short. Why do most manufacturers make microwave covers like these? What happens with other tallers container like soup bowls or plates with big items like chicken? The cover will touch the food.

2. Why is the cover tinted? The microwave door is already tinted so the extra tinting renders your view of the items inside the cover close to nill. Clear or frosted microwave covers are better.

3. The manufacturing quality is poor. I got the product full of scratches and cracks all over. There was even one long scratch on one side. The plastic sides was not smooth.

Overall, it is not a good product and I would advise looking for something else much taller in height and with better manufacturing quality.

- Lifetime Use Expectancy
I purchased this product exactly two years ago. It performed as I had hoped. It fit my microwave carousel perfectly. It has not been abused nor mishandled or subjected to heat other than that in the microwave. However, within the last month or two, cracks began to appear in the plastic, vertically up to the crown. I don't know if this is the normal life span, but I am disappointed in the two year useage I experienced. I will order a replacement since I was really satisfied with the original. Maybe the second one will last longer!!!

- Time saver and improves flavor
We lived in Europe for many years and had a dish cover similar to this. After many years of use, we needed a replacement.

When I received this, I was pleasantly surprised. One can see clearly through this and it fits standard dinner plates beautifully.

If you are still using plastic wrap, wax paper, or paper towels to cover your cooking / reheating items, then you are truly doing things the hard way!

If you are not covering your microwave cooking / reheating at all, then you just LOVE CLEANING NASTY MESSES!

I was so impressed, I bought one for each of my sisters-in-law, my parents, and my single brother. They are still talking about the greatest, and most useful Christmas present 6 months later!

I highly recommend this. It saves the cleaning time... It saves you from finger burns when pulling your other covers off the cooking...
