This is a great cover. It has vent holes around the edge of the top which are completely separate from the finger *indentations*, which protects your fingers from being burned. It is sturdy, has gone throught the dishwasher many times with no problem, and bright colored-- I haven't had to search for it like our old white one. It is just the right size: wide enough for a dinner plate, but tall enough for a heaped bowl. I like the collapsible feature, but note that there is a little trick to popping it out; you have to push at a certain distance from the edge, then it pops easily. We are very satisfied!

Easy to clean, space saver, by far this is the best microwave cover I've ever bought. Just got another one for my mother-in-law too.

This review is from: Tovolo Collapsible Microwave Cover, Red (Kitchen)

It serves as a splatter screen in the microwave, but also a cover for food sitting out, like a cake or pie (handy in the summer). Because of the steam holes in the top; when used upside down it serves as a strainer too.

It's nice that it takes up no more space than one of the dinner plates when collapsed. I store it there, with the dishes, the most frequently used option. When the fuller/taller lid is required, I've found no problem with the expanding plastic, opened by holding opposite sides with both hands then applying thumb pressure inside the edge, both sides at the same time. Pops up easily that way.

This item can take the place of 3 or 4 cooking items so for those of us who have limited cupboard space, this is ideal.
