RSVP Stainless Steel Universal Lid - 7 to 12 Inchgood

Let me start out by saying, I don't keep 2 lids of the same size just because one is glass and came with the pot and the other is stainless. I hate messing with lids. I pick which one of one size I want to keep and that's it. Frankly I'm not a big fan of the glass ones... they are heavy and if I want to see what I'm cooking I can always lift the lid. So when I went to choose a universal lid, glass wasn't an option for me. I have this lid rack:

And it stores about 7-10 lids for me. But in the year or more since I bought my universal lid, I have never taken a lid out of this rack to use. In fact, I'm thinking about offloading all my lids and putting cutting boards and other stuff in the lid storage.

For a generic reasonable price, it does the job of covering all those different sizes of fry pans that come without a lid. It is used almost every day.

The only problem I've encounter is that it won't fit on some of my smaller pans that have an upward tilted handle. But this is problem just because the pan is poorly designed.
