The best silicone stretch lid

Do you ever get tired of buying plastic wrap? Maybe when you pull out the plastic wrap from its box it constantly sticks to itself and then you get frustrated trying to pull it apart and wind up throwing it away and getting a new piece? Not that that has ever happened to me before…That is where these silicone stretch lids food covers come in.

They don’t have to be that particular brand they all have the same purpose, a reusable cover that keeps your food fresh.

Considerations when choosing silicone stretch lids

Size

Silicone stretch lids range in size from just a couple of inches across all the way up to about 10 inches across, so they’re useful for covering foods and containers of almost all sizes. Depending on its size, each lid can stretch from one to three inches, so a 10-inch silicone stretch lid could fit containers of up to 13 inches across.

Shape

The vast majority of silicone stretch lids are circular in shape. However, due to their super stretchy nature, you can use them on containers of virtually any shape (although some shapes work better than others). You can also find some square stretch lids, but these only work on square or rectangular containers, so they’re less versatile than their round counterparts.

Set size

It’s practically unheard of to find a single silicone stretch lid for sale, they’re almost exclusively sold in sets. These sets tend to contain somewhere between five and 14 lids in a range of different sizes, but you’ll occasionally find larger or smaller sets. Some sets contain a mixture of round and square stretch lids, but the majority feature round lids only.
