Is this lid convex or comcave?

The Universal lid is just over 12 inches with a convex center (where the handle is attached) of seven inches. Hope this helps.

Convex. The "dome" is about 1 ½" high and about 8" in diameter; the handle is maybe 2" above that. The 2"+ "flange" is flat and has concentric ridges to keep it from sliding around on smaller (less than 12") pans. Although I still use my 10" lid on my 10" skillet, this would work fine.

It depends on which side of the lid you're looking at. :)Looking at the lid from the top, it is convex as are most lids. The outer edge is relatively flat but actually slopes toward the middle slightly so that condensation runs back into the pan rather than out onto the stove surface.

Convex in middle but flat around edge. The flat edge is what makes it "universal" in their mind.

The lid is concave. The domed part is concave as shown in the picture. The flat, ridged part of the lid is flat, as you can see.

The hinges are plastic, but I like it just fine. It doesn't feel or look cheap. We have had this lid for a few months now and haven't had any problems. It really makes the aquarium pop.

The mirror I bought 4 years ago is not convex - it is a simple flat mirror. The design may have changed since I bought mine.

The lid is plastic. The diameter I would guess is 2 inches from side to side.

I had purchased at the request of a friend in the Caribbean, as I was travelling there. I only took a fleeting glance at the pot, but seem to recall it as concave. My friend is very pleased with it. Hope that helps.

It is glass, it is CONVEX! I cannot believe all the answers that say it is flat. Use a straight edge! It is ever so slightly convex... just right in my never to be humble opinion. Love this mirror. Mount down and in to avoid damage. It is protected, and you can actually see better. You look below your arm, instead of trying to see around it, and it is much safer from damage. My first one, in the enclosed picture, was broken by a friend BEFORE I mounted it "down and in".

Convex - They are also lousy. I suggest you buy some from an auto parts store like Autozone or possibly WalMart so you at least see what level of quality you are buying.

Neither actually. The lids are tight fitting, fairly easy to take off but will stay on if it's knocked over.

Yes. It's better than the original. Looks nicer with the chrome ring on the edge of the lid.

It's a sippy lid. It has a sliding closure so you can close it to prevent spilling.

I can't size tell from the photo, but the lid I have looks exactly like this

Hi Molly, The lid is quite subsantial, as far as double walled, I am not sure. I have owned mine for over a year now and I couldn't be more pleased. In fact, I just finished pressing my morning coffee. It is a great french press and after owning many glass french presses and replacing them...this one is a gem. I highly recommend buying one. I think you will be very happy. I hope this helps with your decision.

Hello, this is a metal. But the mirror is not a convex mirror, i can´t see anything. Don´t buy this mirror, my friend.

Both- there is a removable rubber ring that sits between the glass and the plastic lid

No. It is a push-in style lid. The seal (on mine anyway) is quite good, though.

The one I got doesn't have a locking lid. It also doesn't look much like the picture. This wasn't the best purchase I ever made on Amazon.
