works great!
Last night I made BBQ chicken in the oven! OMG this was a game changer, I didn't have to pull out the tin foil to put over the casserole pan. This worked so well, no spatters, no fighting to put the tin foil on the dish, just laid this over the top and we were good to go.Putting the left overs in the fridge was easy too, just put the lid back on and in the fridge it went. My husband is happy too because he doesn't have to fight with the tin foil or saran wrap. This will save us time and money!

Perfect
I am trying to move away from disposable, one use, items in my house. I was getting annoyed at all the tinfoil I was going through when I cooked, because I wanted my food covered so it didn't dry out in the oven. I looked for a pan that came with a lid that could be put in the oven, but was not successful in finding one in the larger size that I wanted, or if there was one with a lid, it was plastic and not safe for the oven. When I came across these, I thought that would be perfect! They cover my larger baking dish and I can even use them on the smaller ones. Washing them is simple enough, though I have noticed they tend to stain if they touch the food in the dish, but that is likely because I use a lot of turmeric which stains everything. It doesn't affect the functionality, so I don't mind. I love that I have a way to cook my food that is less wasteful than I previously was.

They dip down in the middle, sticking to food
These are OK. They're the right size and they do the job, but because they are so large and not rigid, they tend to bow in the middle and touch the food. So if you have a casserole with cheese, the cover falls into the cheese and makes a mess. A rigid lid would be the only solution to this that I know of.

Nice Big Covers for Casseroles
These are big enough to cover my glass 9x12 baking dish with extra room - could probably fit a 10x14. Love the handle on them (prevents steam burns). Not thrilled with the results from the top rack dishwasher - left the purple cover with white splotches, but did not affect the quality of the silicon. Will just hand wash the others.

Didn’t love these.
Didn’t really care for these. They were to big for what I wanted.

>> MUCH TOO FLOPPY
> UPDATE -- I've recently found that fiberglass reinforced cooking mats (Last Confection or other brands, usually tan with solid color borders) work better than these "lids". (You can identify the fiberglass reinforced cooking mats by the visible grid-like pattern of the fibers embedded in the silicon). Honestly, the silicon mats don't work much better (only a little better) --- but they do serve double duty, as cooking mats, and/or lids. In addition, the cooking mats are much easier to store, and are useful in a number of other ways.> BOTTOM LINE -- The covers measure 15 3/4" x 11 1/2". The covers will nominally fit my Pyrex 13 1/2" x 9 3/8 and 15 3/4" x 10 5/8" rectangular glass casseroles (measurement not including the handles of the casseroles), but the cover is so floppy that it sags down to the food.--- Another brand, "Premium Airtight Silicone Suction Lid Pan Sealer" which I previously purchased from Amzn (but which, unfortunately, is no longer available) has radial ribs and is more rigid.CAUTION -- Yes, as another reviewer points out, the Maxi lid has concentric lines which CAN be used as a guide to cutting down the lids to smaller sizes (easily with scissors). Since you get 3 lids, it MIGHT seem to make sense to cut down one or two for smaller casserole dishes. However, cutting the lids down has the effect of REDUCING the rigidity. For, say an 7 x 10 casserole dish, you COULD cut down a lid to perhaps 9 x 12 or 11 x 14. The oversized portion of the "lid" serves as a counterweight, helping hold up the middle of the lid. Try to leave 2--4" of overlap all around your casserole dish.> AS A COOKING LID -- The lids are nominally safe up to about 400 degrees (Fahrenheit). Therefore they are probably safe use in an oven at 350 degrees or lower. But the lid is likely to sag down when it gets hot and touch your food.> AS A MICROWAVING LID -- Because water boils at 212 degrees. This phenomenon prevents anything that contains much water from getting hotter than 212 degrees without burning. But, oil (and fatty food) can get much hotter than 400 degrees in a microwave. I once tried to toast some nuts for 1 minute on a silicon mat in my microwave, and the natural oil in the nuts burned the silicon mat. I would be very cautious about using these "lids" in a microwave, except possibly for steaming vegetables with no oil or fat.> TEMPORARY COVERS -- The lids are GREAT for simply covering dishes on the counter; to hold in heat before serving; to prevent the food from dying out; or to keep off flies, etc.> FOOD STORAGE -- Forget about the "vacuum" or "suction" that so many deluded reviewers rave about. The lids conform to the lip of glass/ceramic dishes and therefore seal well, maybe even "airtight"---but they don't "stick"---they are just covers. Even the term "lids" is misleading. Yes, 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. The lids can easily be bumped out-of-place. Therefore the lids are poor as covers to transport a cooked dish to a family get-together etc.-->The lids themselves are very weak and therefore you cannot stack anything on top of containers covered with these lids. They work fairly well for temporary storage of food in your frig, if you've got lotsa room, but are not ideal for the purpose.---I hope that it is needless to say that they would be totally worthless for storage in freezers---a piece of cardboard would work as well.> CLEANING -- A great advantage (compared to metal or plastic lids) is that they simply wipe clean---usually, you don't have to wash them. If you do need to wash them, then handwash.> ODORS -- This silicon material, whether used for ice cube trays, lids, baking sheets, muffin pans, spatulas, etc. readily absorb odors. Only if they get stinky (mine haven't in 5 years of daily usage), just wash them in your dishwasher -- best WITHOUT forced heat drying (which is also best for all plasticware). If you cannot turn off the forced drying of your dishwasher, then wash ALL of your plastics in the top tray

Great option instead of wasteful plastic wrap!
I like these covers, they suction and are reusable. Great for picnic tables at home, not travel well. Don't turn pan upside down, suction does not hold. (You can see I spilled the brownies.) Wish there were different size options, cut one down to fit a 9 x 9 pan, overlapped it so it would suction well. Not sure if you need to do that, but that is what I think. Used Exacto blade and long ruler, it cut like butter. (Easy) even made the hole to hang it.Wish there were more color options or different colors. Purple and green don't go in my kitchen. Cranberry, gray, black, dusty blue, white, and beige would.If you have a shallow pan, the handle part in the middle dips down about an inch and hits your food otherwise it won't suction. (Flat would be better.) Haven't used them for cooking or freezing.

These sag in the middle, touching your dish
I was super excited to get these bc there doesn't seem to be much options on the market, however, they did not meet my expectations.They are slightly oversized which is fine bc most glass baking dishes have a handles that can be wider or longer than others.But when you place it atop your glass dish, the center of the lid sinks enough that it will end up touching your dish, thus, pulling off the top when you remove the lid. So imagine covering a lasagna or frosted cake, the lid will lift off the center of it.The other annoying thing is that there are little grooves at the top meant for you to pinch so you can grab the lid and lift it off, but these grooves are not substantial enough. And I don't have long nails or chubby fingers either, but I found these hard to use to lift the lid off. Imagine having arthritis and having to pinch these tiny lines to lift the lid.I had no choice but to return these. Back on the hunt :(

Great quality
These are great lids. Only 4 star because the colours are a bit bright.

A great find @Warehouse Deals
I really like silicone covers/lids and this set is no exception. They are as shown and big enough for most large casseroles (certainly big enough for all of mine). They are also as advertised and described - safe to use in the oven (no hotter than 400F, is what I recommend), in the frig/freezer, and for bringing the casserole to the table and keeping it fresh until serving. They wash up well in the dishwasher, but I do remove them near the end of the cycle and hand-dry to prevent water-spotting.

Works perfectly
These work perfectly to keep my shepherd's pies and lasagnas from overcooking on the tops without producing foil waste. I would recommend this product.My package came with two light green and a dark green instead of one each plus purple.

Excellent product
SOrry, I made a mistake on which order had not arrived - these did and I love them! Great for lasagne pans etc - saving a lot of tinfoil and plastic wrap.
