Does the yellow lid not 'snap' in place at all? Is it supposed to just rest on top? Or is mine defective?

No, the yellow lid does not snap into place. It not even a challenge to take off. It's the first thing my baby takes off. I have to hold the yellow top down to just show her the other way to use the toy. If it just gave a little resistance to pull if then it would be more of a challenge.

It doesn't snap in place, but it is held by the two screw like things on the sides. It should be pretty secure. Yours might be defective.

No it does not snap into place. It just rests on the top. I wish it gave a little resistance to make a challenge for my daughter but it doesn't.

It does not snap, it only rests on top! Personally, I like it that way because my 6 month old has no problems with getting the lid off but you do have to be extra careful when cleaning up or transporting it around!!

I don't have this problem. Check if the top inside plate and other removable items on the lid are tightly snapped in.

I don't seem to have that problem. I do close the lid by snapping two adjacent sides shut at the same time.

I have an earlier model with the same cover. I've dropped it several time while it was filled. Usually the lid stays on. +1 for a tight lid!

The lids are not snap ons like a Rubbermaid container. Along the inside edge of the lid there is a recessed band of a foam type material that makes an air tight fit when the top is latched down onto the container portion.

You need to twist it off. it is kind of tricky, but just be patient and hold the bottom part and twist the lid. if you look at the lid, you can see there is a part that locks on the bottom part.

Couldn't tell you if mine is or not but rubbermaid was sold years ago and to my knowledge their production went over seas. As to this product... I don't use it... the idea was for it to seal and keep air out of the container. The lid doesn't snap and hiss... meaning that you want to push some extra air out by lifting a corner and pushing down the center of the lid... the lid then should be divot-ed down... that doesn't occur.

That's a bit odd, we have had no trouble latching the lid. Are you sure you are seating the lid properly; if so, then, as inlikely as it may be, perhaps the lid is misshaped or the latch deffective.

I have a similar problem with mine. The lid does vibrate under certain conditions. My lid tends to vibrate more with a headwind. However, the box always remains firmly attached. I've learned to live with it.

Mine doesn't snap in place either. My son pulls it out all the time to play with it. It hasn't broken yet and he's pretty rough with it.

I've read that others have had trouble with the top, but I have not. It's always very easy for me to put on securely and it stays in place. Perhaps you have one that has been manufactured improperly? You might want to return it and ask for a replacement.

We had no problem....we placed the lid on the bucket then my husband pushed down one section at a time which snapped the lid on. One bucket we had a screw on lid and the part that snaps on the bucket did so in the same manner as explained above. A friend did have a problem solved with a rubber mallet...perhaps that would help you. OR, send them back...maybe you got a bad batch?

It just sits in and then you tighten the screws ,,,maybe try tightening it more of maybe yours is defective. We didn't have any difficulty with ours.

mine latches and stays put just fine, there must be an issue with that one.

Definitely clicks when you put on the lid. Then the lid is somewhat loose while on. It would not come off if you shook it, it requires a little force to remove the lid. The lid is not airtight.

The lid comes completely off. It snaps on, but sometimes it's hard to get it to let loose.
