All in all, this is a great little item. I must warn you, though, if you put it in the microwave for the allowable minute or so, make sure to put the lid on upside down.

I put the lid on properly, as any normal person would, and found that once I removed it from the microwave, it had developed a vacuum seal with the main part of the container. I didn't know this is what happened and actually thought at first that it had melted together never to be usable again.

Well, after a while (maybe about ten minutes), the air inside cooled down enough to release the vacuum and I was able to use the container and get to the tortillas that had been imprisoned inside without a fair trial.

I use this often when making Olga-type bread. Unfortunately, it's a little shallow, so doesn't hold too many of those, but for plain flour or corn tortillas, it holds quite a few. I also use this to keep pancakes warm as I'm cooking them up.

In closing, I'd say this was definately worth the money.

I like it. Big enough for burrito/fajita-sized tortillas. I cut a 1/8" gap in the lid's inner lip with wire snips to take care of the vacuum issue - worked just fine.

Product arrived just as expected. Looks like the picture. Lid suctions on during microwaving if not cracked, but that is to be expected.
I am satisfied with this purchase.

I finally started making my own tortillas after a friend at work shared her homemade corn tortillas, filled with chicken and peppers, with me. They were nothing like the packaged ones from the store. So during my tortilla and Mexican food craze, I purchased this handy keeper to help them stay warm. The keeper also works well for pancakes. The tortillas stay warm enough for me without external heat, so I haven't used this in the microwave.

had to buy a new one for me because my daughter and son-in-law swiped mine, but I forgive them....it is wonderful. Makes tortillas perfect

Great product. I wish I had bought one a bit bigger but that was my own oversight. However, the keeper seems to be of good quality and gets the job done. For 10 bucks, you can't go wrong.

No need to flip the lid upside down when using in the microwave. I have never experienced the issue the previous poster stated. Works great for its price.

I got this tortilla keeper from Amazon.It is sturdy. But one drawback is that the lid does not close tight with the container. So at times, the outside air could leak inside and make the tortillas hard.

It does exactly what you need it to! He kept my tortillas warm for a long time after taking them out of the oven! Works great for pancakes too!

This is a good quality platic tortilla warmer that can be washed in the upper rack of the dishwasher. It works well. It is larger than I expected. I thought this would be the size of the warmers one receives at restaurants for corn tortillas or small flour tortillas. But it is the size for a full size flower tortilla (think Chipotle size). Still works for smaller sizes too, but not was well and takes up more space. Just be aware. Still a good product.
