Are the lids glass (see through) or metal? I can not tell from the photo.

Metal and they dont stain. This is the most bang for cookware you will find. Its free from detrimental substabces, innexpensive in contrast to s8milar quality brands, its perfect!

The lids are black. I didn't expect them to be as beautiful as they are. I love mine. The star is black also.

Yes they are glass, and they are great, Ive used them a couple years in a row now for storing herbs I dried from my garden and they are nice and air tight.

The lid is metal. We used them for a baby shower - put flowers in the lid, and a straw in the center hole. We were very pleased with them.

They are in plastic which is dark colored. I think this is a vast improvement over the glass. Been ordering this product for years. Hope you enjoy as much as me. Good Luck.

The one I recieved had the metal lid. Reason why I bought the second one! I think the newer models have the glass lid. If I remember correctly Amazon had both types on here for sale. The glass one would be nice to see through but I still wanted the metal lid.

The old set of bowls I bought four years ago with my son were transparent. My one year old has these newer bowls and they are not transparent but the lids are. The old set of bowls actually had clear lids. You can see by the pic here, the lids are a transparent color and the bowls are opaque.

ours are definitely plastic, which is what I prefer - in our household glass would break sooner rather than later... these still look very nice, not at all foggy or scratched.

they are glass and they are good to my opinion. You just have to remove sticker gently.

I am interested in the kitchen aide gourmet essential cookware brushed stainless steel set, but am wondering are the lids metal or glass?

The lids seem to be of good quality yes. I haven't used them a whole lot thus far but they have been great the few times I've used them.

They do have a see-through section in the center of the lid. This set is an upgrade from the "red lid" set in that I think the containers are a bit sturdier and they don't stain. Also, ours do well in the dishwasher.

Hi Scott,They are transparent. I must tell you though these things are very flimsy and the seal between the outside and inside is poor. Furthermore, there is no customer service as they are always sold through a 3rd party vendor.

These are the exact same brass (I think. Aluminum maybe.) lids as any other mason jar lid. It just has a special coating on the outside of the lid that makes it look old.

The glass lids are. I don't know about the plastic ones. I personally wouldn't use the plastic ones in the microwave.
