I have some large Tupperware plastic bowls and such - can no longer find lids that fit. Does anyone know if it works on plastic containers?

Yes, it does work on plastic tupperware bowls, and any smooth bowl, pot or pan

I unsnap the lids and leave them setting loose on top of the container. I suppose if you are worried about the whole plastic issue you could instead cover with a paper towel. Whatever you do, just do not microwave with the lids locked on.

Hmm, not sure if any of these will fit a can that size. To be honest, I think you should measure the top of the can and then find a lid that would fit it. Maybe some of the bigger lids in the set would fit, but I'd measure it first. Sorry, hope this helps.

My lids fit pretty good except for last, it fit very snug but I could put it in the rack. I would think maybe try to swap some lids around to see which lids fit better. Hope you are able to get it.

Yes, Hillary73, I use it for all my corning ware lids and pyrex lids and even some small bowls. It has really helped to organize my cabinet. I even use it for the lid for my corning ware 2 quart lid. I really like mine.

Possibly. Those plastic push on types that are on top of dollar store containers or Pringles container but would need to find out a size that works.

Did anyone find lids that worked for these? They are useless to me without luds, but maybe perfect with lids.

The small 'lid' that covers the wholes of the larger piece can be used as a covering for glass containers (just tested it to make sure - and it does seal tight). It is only about 6" in diameter, though, so it will only work with fairly small containers.

I was fortunate that the lids on my set did fit well from the start. But I tend to misplace them. A good substitute is the lid from a can of coffee (most brands, maybe not all).

I use this lid on pans (frying pan and sauce pans) that are 9 3/4 inches and it works fine. My crock pot is roughly the same dimension but this lid does not work well for that as there not as much lip to this lid as the crock pot lid. Sorry I can't be more definitive.

I don't know. If you are using them for refrigerated items, or dried,, like herbs, flavored salts, etc.that would be fine. But I don't think you can can (sterlize) with plastic lids.

Not sure what does not fit but if the lids do not have a round handle it might be difficult to get lids to fit. And might require a custom bend if they are extra thick lids. Start from smallest to largest or largest lid to smallest lid. If all the lids are the same size and larger they may not fit.

I haven't seen any, but there is no need. I went to Walmart and got the cheapest plastic food bowls I could find that were 8 inches across. About 5 or so inches deep. I got 12 for around $10. Threw away the lids. Fill them about an inch under the top and put them in the freezer - make sure their level. When ready to use, I take them out of the freezer about a hour before I plan on using them (leave them in the bowl - no mess). Then plop them on the cutter and go. The machine shuts off with about half an inch of ice still left.

are the lids available separately? It seems these will fit the 2 cup bowls I have with red plastic lids, and those lids are decrepit and very expensive to replace

If the top opening is the same size as the plastic bottles. Are the lids and nipples interchangeable between the glass and plastic? I've only used this on the plastic bottles and it works great. Hope this helps.

i have always found tupperware lids to fit fantastically, you may have to let then soak in warm water at first and the put on to the bowl to allow to form to the bowl at first and i try to wash mine by hand. tupperware also has a lifetime warranty. i have some of my grandmother's when it was called just tupper, they still are going strong!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Don't think the dish cradle is deep enough for lids. I have only used it for dishes. Sorry no better answer
