is the lid completely detachable, or permanently attached at on side?

Detachable. You can take it apart & roast different things in each half if you need to. Keep some pliers handy though because only the larger half has a full handle.

It's completely detachable. However, the clamp isn't quite long enough, so it comes undone too easily.

Good Question. It is NOT a threaded screw-on lid so the whole metal top does occasionally come off when I try to pull the plastic lid cover off.

The lid is removable. Once the lid is on the cooler it doesn't come off at all. It looks like there is a sealer on it.

Yes, the top container does detach and can be used completely independent of the larger container.

Yes to both.It can be pulled back all the way so that it can hang in the back or the lid can be taken off completely bacuse it's just a Velcro attachment.

The entire lid does come off. I wouldn't advise taking the entire lid apart. You have to push the button to drink from it. There is no locking open position.

Yes its detachable. We use this pitcher at the office and we use ice cubes.

No, it is not detachable. Just so you know, I live in Napa and just went thru the worst earthquake you can imagine and my laptop (sitting in this Fellowes stand) didn't even budge. I actually wish I had a second one of these.

Yes. It is not attached at all, which is the only flaw in this design, as far as I'm concerned.

It has velcro tabs to hold the lid down but does detach completely. It's also flexible enough to tie down at the middle and lift half up to reach in for drinks, which is what we did since we towed it behind a raft in a regatta.

It's hinged, with two regular metal hinges. The lid can be removed if you unscrew the hinges I guess. I just took a photo but the option to upload custom images doesn't seem to be available for this product.

No, the lid come off easily without removing the entire unit from the base. Works great!

This is a screw on lid & it is very secure & leak proof. Package directions state to remove/replace lid while in the "open" position.

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

No, it's separate, just like a pot lid. But isn't a problem at all. Still love mine!

It seems like it's attached but it just has a relatively snug fit. The lid and the hose (the hose that attached to the faucet) are one piece, and the lid does come off if you fiddle with it a little bit.

Yes, the top comes off easily. You can open the top or you can press down on a little part in the back hinge-area and take the entire lid off fairly easily.
