I have a set of two lids I bought a few years ago for my kitchen aid k45 and they both have depressions in the center. According to the description, I guess I have medium lids.

The lids I had did, guessing since I received this question I must have bought the medium. But, they did no fit well, they would slip off, so I returned them. Also, the indent interfered with stuff in the bowl, so the bowl could not be full with the lid on. Bought instead some Silikomart Coverflex Reusable Silicone Food Covers, X-Large, 8.3-Inch - and they work great.

I think it is different, with more of straight side and probably a specific rim to accommodate the lid; but unsure as I do not own other Pyrex styles. Mine are doing well in the freezer, red rim staying soft, holding seal.

The large bowl is 11 inches in diameter and 5 inches tall, the medium bowl is about 9 1/4 inches diameter by 4 3/4 inches in height and the small bowl is aout 7 1/2 diameter and 4 inches tall. All store in the large bowl perfectly. These are THE BEST bowl mixing bowls!

I've had mine over six months and it's definitly the large blue swiril and each one if different. They're fairly heavy. I got the large dinner plate and the slightly smaller plate and they are very flat. We often use the 1 1/2" high bowl(I think they were called soup bowls) for items that may drip, like syrup. We also got the smaller bowl which are perfect for cereal and salad. Don't get the "salad plates" because they are huge like separate mixing bowls, as in the size of a salad for a whole family. Also, I've dropped them(due to clumsiness) and they don't break even on cement. I've had mine over six months and it's definitly the large blue swiril and each one if different. They're fairly heavy.

To be honest I haven't even noticed. I have always balanced my mixer on the bowl edge so any of the mixture on the beaters will fall back into the bowl. I love this mixer - great power, convenient storage, and a good weight. Definitely recommend!

use both hands holding the sides of the bowl, close the lid from the bottom, while it close to the top, slightly use both of your index fingers to squeeze the bowl, and use your thumb to push the lid down. Now it closed perfectly.:) make sense?

I don't know as I don't have the pouring lid. I duo love this bowl, the handle is very well made and makes life easier.

I ordered these lids for my 4.5 qt, and they fit nice and snug! Also the little dip in the lid allows the mixer to be down and locked when not in use, and all the attachments fit nicely into the bowl. My husband bought universal lids that don't fit at all, so I'd stick with these lids and trust that they will satisfy your needs. I love the lid! Hope this helps.

This is a set of mixing bowls plus a measuring cup. No lids that I'm aware of. Anchor Hocking has storage bowls that come with lids, but I have no idea if any of those would fit the mixing bowls.

its says in the instruction manual that "Allow foods to cool before placing in the side bowl(s). Closing the lid with hot foods inside may cause the lid to deform and contents to spill." and also they add "Always remove the lid from the inner bowls before microwaving, and do to microwave the outer container. The lids and outer container are not microwaveable" and im sure you know but for a lid to be microwavable it has to have some sort of small hole in it so pressure wont build up , even if a lid writes microwavable on it if by design fault it does not have a hot steam escape hole on it you should never microwave it , you risk injury or at best destroying your microwave or food at best its says in the instruction manual that "Allow foods to cool before placing in the side bowl(s).

The numbers are raised, although they are very difficult to see when any colored liquid is added. Perhaps the other person who answered this question purchased a different batter bowl.Even with the markings being raised, the are clear and very difficult to see.I had to purchase the Pyrex brand, because the measurements sure clearly written in red and much, much easier to read and I needed exact measurements for preparing homemade yogurt.This one is okay, but I prefer the Pyrex one.

For this version, the larger container had gel-fill walls. The smaller container had neither a gel-filled wall nor base. However, I bought it again this last summer in a different color (bright pink/red lid) and with that product, the lid on the smaller unit did have a gel-filled lid. Hope that helps!

Not Snug is actually a little better. there was an issue with the original MagnaLite Professional lids (Yes I own a set) and they would tend to seal themselves with moisture. this (I have read) had caused a couple of lids to "blow off" the pot. Also, the lid was designed that any steam that hit the lid would funnel back down to the inside lip and back into the food. The fact that the lid is not very snug is a good thing IMOHP...

I'm looking into this set because my mom owns two. She just informed me that she has only ever had an issue with a plastic lid not snapping on one side anymore. She called Pyrex and they alway replace it (the entire unit-lid and glass bottom).

If I understand your question, then the answer is, no, there is no lid on the mixing cup, but it is not needed. It mixes without a mess.

Actually, I've found that swapping out a cottage cheese or sour cream, and 32 oz yougert lid works well when this happens , and many come in clear like the libbey lids. Had the same problem with my family in their 90's. We use the 16 oz. because they eat together. Stay encouraged, and ask them to put a microwave dome over the glass bowl, I bought 6 at the dollar store, and for the price, always leave clean one inside microwave:) Praise God your mom is blessed enough to enjoy home cook food:) Sincerely, Linda in the evergreen state

Our experience is that the lids do stay on when needed. However, the lids are not heavy enough to allow stacking bowls on top of each other.
