Is the lid secure? Is it snug enough that the lid stays put when pouring?

No, the lid is not secure at all! It is not snug. I've dropped it many times. Very annoying.

When pouring yes. However, if it is still filter water in the top reservoir then it's loose and might come off.

Yes absolutely even when is filtering .. but be careful and close properly the lid ..

If the reservoir is full, you have to hold the lid tightly or it will fall off. I just wait for it to drain, it doesn't take long, unless the filter is old.

It's a loose fit when the strainer is not in there. If you are pouring, you'll need to hold the lid in place.

The lid fits fairly tight but it is not air tight. I have gone thru three large bags of coffee so far and have not had a problem with it staying fresh. I think Robert B. Whyte summed it up best.

Personally, I find it easy enough to open with just enough tightness so the lid doesn't just slip around. The lid was never an issue for me.

The lid stays on just fine. In fact, if my husband is already asleep and i want to make a late night cup of tea, i fill the pot with water earlier in the evening and have it ready, becuase putting the lid on and clicking it in makes a noise. it fits tight and does not leak. i am very happy with mine. the handle is stationary, so you have to finagle the lid a bit to get it in and clicked tight. but i have arthritis and i can do it so it's no big deal.dee jaquet

It doesn't fall over easily, wobbles but tends to stay upright. And if lid tight it doesn't leak at all when tipped or upside down.

It seems to be as I've thrown cups of liquids away and it has never leaked. However, the lid is not.

I have not used the pot completely full but have used it about half full and the lid remained securely In place while boiling.

The lid snaps on securely but when tested with water, it does run out of the handle area. This isn't a problem since I only use this dish to transport cooked casseroles and the dish sits snugly in the carrying case. You would need a lot if liquid in your dish and tip it quite a bit to loose any liquid contents.

The lid snaps down and should not leak. (Haven't tried it, though a bucket with guck in it shouldn't tip over.)

nope, no problems. Super control of the water stream when pouring, a lot safer and neater than my old tea kettle. No lids popping off for me.

The lid does not rattle. It has a rubber gromet around it that keeps it snug.

the lid does not need to be tight. You don't want to have to wrestle the lid off. This is a great ash can. We couldn't be happier with it.

Our lid isn't a real tight fit, but tight enough that it won't just fall off. It has worked great for us! We do place the bucket outside for a day to cool off if we have a lot of hot coals to empty from stove.

The lid is spring loaded so will stay open while pouring. It can not be removed but the opening is large enough to allow for cleaning when necessary.

no, the lid has never fallen off. The only thing that is an occasional problem is the little pour spout cover. Sometimes it will get stuck when you are pouring the water...not a big deal though. This pitcher is the best Brita I have owned.

That lid is pretty tight, Rubbermaid is reliable, sometimes its a trip to open the 2 spouts. I can't make any guarantees about being on it's side since I've not tried it, you have to decide. FYI: it's a big carafe.
