When you close the lid, does the top piece "lock" to the bottom piece?

It does not lock it just rests over the food item...there is no locking mechanism once the lid is down to my knowledge

No it dose not lock to the bottom piece and is better because it allowed the grill to stay grilled but not squish. The grilled sandwich or steak or ever you choose to grill will look good and well done.

Yes, the lid is hinged at the back of the container and does not come completely off of the top. Hope this helps.

If opened fully, the lid will stay open. But must be opened all the way for hinge to lock.

The instructions say you should lock it down, which I found odd. If you don't latch it, the lid can rise a bit.

Yes it locks in place very well. With mine it had a slight error where twice it locked a little too well and wouldn't shut.

Yes, if the lid is completely opened, it will stay open until it is pushed down.

No it does not lock, lid sits down into pot about an inch. I do like the pot a lot though

It does not. When closed, it is held shut by some fairly weak magnets, but when open, does not do any sort of locking.

Yes. There is a spring-loaded lock at the top and a sliding/removable doohickey on the bottom. They operate independently. So, while the top locks automatically upon shutting the gate, you have to manually slide the locking mechanism into place on the bottom.

No. If you open it all the way, the lid will stay open. Great little safe, I am glad I purchased it, easy to instal, easy to use.

Yes it has a lid that stays attached on one side and clicks closed on the other.

yes the lid closes tight....seems to stay shut it's a snug fit....no latch only friction.....seems very sturdy to sit on.

It stays open even if you don't open it all the way. You cannot however lock it into the open position.

The lid doesn't lock down, but I have not had a problem with it popping off.

Yes, it does. But the case is very badly designed. Once you opened it and took the tools out then it is very difficult to put the tools back in and still able to close the lid and shut the latch! It seems that the tools can only be put in and packed one way (the way they came from the factory) and if they were just put back in casually then the lid cannot be easily closed! I was amazed when I first found that out and subsequently I seldom had time to fool around with the hard case.

It does not.While cooking you can open either one side or the other without removing the lid but it doesn't lock in place. Good idea though!

Yes. The lid has a spring loaded hinge, it will clamp shut from all positions until it is pulled back all the way; at which point it will stay open
