Is there a hole in the middle of the lids? The picture makes it look like there is.

No, there isn't a hole. The part that looks like the hole is an indent in the lid. I don't know why it is there, but the lids totally cover your bowl.

They are not holes. They are a raised spot in the lid. I thought the same things when I saw them. They work great!

I'm not sure why the previous person answered NO, unless they consider something else to be "the grip". I believe when you asked that you are referring to the part of the lid sticking out that is clearly visible in the photos. If so, yes there is indeed a hole in that and it is designed to conform to your finger making it very comfortable to hook your finger through it. I only use the 17-oz size, but I can carry it for long stretches of time before I feel like I need to trade hands when just walking around-- and I am an older female.

You are correct, I have the same problem. It would seem that the lids don't exactly fit the bottom, as it's difficult to line them up to snap it down.

There is a hole in the lid. The only time I used it, it did not cook evenly. Some potatoes, onions and carrots were done and some not. I was so unhappy with it I haven't used it again.

Yes, there is a thin seal on the inside of the lid. It doesn't cover all the lid.

Maybe they've fixed this already, because I can't find anything about 3 pieces in the details or description. But yes, there are 3 containers and 3 matching lids.

Yes, there are holes in the center. This product was phenomenally effective in ending our rodent infestation

Yes. It doesn't show it in this picture but there's a second tab at the bottom with a hole.

Yes, if you look closely, you can see a small seam on the stainless steel rim of the glass lids. It is smooth, and not obvious or objectionable. The cookware cooks great and clean up is very easy.

yes, there is a hole in the center. What a good idea though if it did not have a hole. Maybe you could still use it as a chicken roaster over a cookie sheet?

there is a hole for the s[poon resting. I do like this feature but to understand this was made by most people requested. You try to ask the lids with the hole.
1546675
yes., but there is some faint rust spots on the inside of the lid stainless steel area

No, it is only the lid, much more stronger than the one supplied, which my honey's put holes in big time !!! really great unit.

I am guessing you are asking about "holes" in the bottom of the pots?? If so, yes

Not that I've seen. Honestly I'm not impressed with the lid. It's not tight fitting at all.

Hmmm...I wonder if your lids are unusually thick or oddly shaped. Have you put them in as the photo indicates, with the smallest on the bottom and getting larger as they go up? Are you able to post a photo of your predicament?

yes there is as you open the lid hole right side, I also put a drop of penetrating oil on the red button and let it slide down into the mechanism let it sit on its side with the red button up a day. Just a little bit, it seemed to fix mine now it works fine.
