 No more wasting paper towels September 15, 2008
Charles E. Koenen (Easley, South Carolina USA)
No more wasting paper towels with this cover. WARNING!!! Don't put finger in hole after heating. I would watch it around children. When it gets dirty just pop it in dish washer. It seems to speed up cooking times.

This is one of those items that is so incredibly useful, yet few of us realize how much we need it until we receive one. My husband and I have always used paper towels to cover our plates and bowls in the microwave, with the usual results: cheese and other toppings stick to the paper towel, or the paper towel falls or caves in, resulting in splatter all over the microwave. Enter the incredibly inexpensive and efficient nordic ware plate cover. Now our splatters are a thing of the past, and we no longer waste paper towels in the microwave. How did we ever live without this?

Cover is high enough to cover any plate full of food.
Fits turntable perfectly.
Also fits standard size dinner plate.
Keeps the inside of your microwave spotless.
 Overpriced gimmick September 5, 2008

This item even at a price a few dollars from 'list', is just twaddle. Yes you put it over your reheated take outs. It's just a single piece of plastic with a hole on top. If you buy a cake, something similar is often included free. And local, NYC, chinese take-outs offer similar lids gratis. A dozen things around will offer the same modest help in the micro. Also it retains the *smell*, yes, even after a sudsy soak. Save your $7+. My first negative review. I don't offer my opinions lightly.

 Not Used Very Often August 7, 2008
Nuknuk (Springfield, VA United States)
Wife bought this a long time ago.
I still not sure about the usefulness of this thing.
One of the main reasons you use this is to prevent your microwave from getting dirty from splattering when you heat your food. Which mean you have to clean this cover instead. Better solution than cleaning the oven itself. But still I find it more convenient to just cover the food with a paper towel. You don't have to clean the paper towel, you just throw it away afterwards.
It is not a one-fits all solution. Sometimes it is not tall enough.
It could have been better if the handle is a knob instead of a hole. The steam can be a bit of a surprise when you get a little careless.
Ours has not cracked yet. I guess that is an indication how very few times it has been used in the household.
