Thumbs up, Tips for Use and a Warning
I ordered these to supplement my original set, from a different company. The original company is no longer in business but those lids are much thicker. That said, I have had no issues with this set and was glad to get some large enough to cover pot pie leftovers and stock pots. Though a bit thinner, I have been using them All the time for months with zero issues. I may need another set, cuz those big ones come in Handy! They stretch a little to fit snugly. I have also used them on wet glass bowls, dry glass bowls, large metal Instant Pot insert, a glass pie pan, etc. and have had Zero issues with them not staying put. If you put them in the microwave, they will lift due to the steam, but that is just obvious. *UNLESS* these are being shipped from multiple third-party vendors, but from Amazon, the ones I received are great. I use a handful of them every day. If they are coming from different vendors, they *may* then also be from different manufacturers and of a different quality than the set I received. If I ordered another set, it may be totally different! Make sure you can return them and test what you get well.***Tips: For those with application issues -When applying a lid (I do it dry or if the bowl has just been washed, makes no difference, works great - usually not going for a waterproof seal here), start with your pinkie & ring fingers in the bottom edge and place its edge on the rim nearest you. On the pot pie dish, I will "set" the lid edge on the dish, then tuck them both against my tummy for leverage (carefully, of course, and there are already silicone counter liners on the surface so sailing is lessened as a possible outcome) and to hold them in place. I then use both hands to stretch the lid to the opposite edge where it self-anchors/sticks, and then tuck each side around the edges. Easy & done. Try to think of applying them like you are laying a top pie crust on a pie, but you will *start* by anchoring that first leverage point nearest you (you could place the bowl on a damp towel to hold it), then using your hands to stretch it around the rest of the bowl. Once you get the hang of it, it is easy as pie.These replace toxic cling/saran wrap and are safe and very handy. They are an Awesome product and a Blessing. I use them *constantly* - microwave, fridge, snacks, etc. Be patient & master the technique, as with anything else. I have yet to be unable to apply them to the smallest or largest item, wet or dry, quickly and easily. I always start by anchoring the lid edge on the item closest to me (if the item is smaller, you can then use your palms to stabilize) and stretching it to cover the item easily once it has been set/anchored. It isn't a terrible product; it simply requires a technique - like tying your shoes did. They are a bit thinner, and silicone, so they can tear around sharp items or overstretching/mishandling.Also, when they arrived, they were almost glued together like a big fat blob, lol. I had to patiently unfold them all, but they have been of immense help in the kitchen and I am SO glad these things exist for us (I always hated saran/cling wrap anyway, working with that stuff IS terrible).WARNING: NEVER - and I mean NEVER - cover an open can and leave it out or put it in the fridge. You can get botulism doing that! I know it is annoying as heck to put canned leftover items to a container, but Do It. If I can do it on several canned items during pizza batch cooking at 3:am and half asleep, you can do it, too.***For those who say they don't offer stackability, if you put an appropriately-sized plate on top of the item you just put the silicone lid on, voila - you now have Stackability.

Good for covering open cans in the fridge
I needed something to cover open cans and jars in the fridge, and liked the idea of something that would stretch to fit cans of different sizes. These certainly do that -- each one has several little tabs to grab onto while you stretch it over your container. It's pretty easy once you get the knack of it. They are quite stretchy and easy to wash off, also require little space for storage. I've reuseda couple several times and they seem pretty durable, even though they look a bit flimsy.My only complaint is that I would have preferred the option to buy several of the same size, rather than all these different sizes. So far, I've only used the two that fit common sizes of cans, such as soup cans or evaporated milk. However, I'll keep the others on hand in case I find a use for them. My elderly mother has a habit of setting uncovered bowls of food in the fridge, so now I have covers that I can pop on to keep the food fresh.

Went back to SaranWrap 😞
I was looking for an alternative to Plastic wrap and thought these would work. NOPE. Disappointed. They don’t stretch very well. You can only use on exact size containers. They don’t work at all on cut produce like tomatoes or onions. For me, they’re a waste of money. They take up more room in kitchen drawers than GladWrap. I’m donating them to my local charity. <sigh>

Best way to separate lids
The best way to separate the lids are to work from the biggest to the smallest and carefully but firmly pull them apart, I didn't have any rip, it is a little nerve-racking to separate them but this is a good product and worth the time, I bought them to replace our terrible saran wrap that doesn't stick at all, to anything (I will be glad when it's gone), the lid I've used so far is on a glass that I keep in the bathroom, I fill it up and let the water warm up because the water is way too cold to drink right out of the tap, it's from a well and cold enough to give me brain freeze, this lid keeps germs out and with time makes the water more comfortable to drink. The lid is easy to put on and take off, I'll be trying the others on bowls and casserole dishes, I'm a little leery to use them in the microwave they are plastic even though the seller says it's safe to do so, a plastic expert said not to use ANYTHING made of plastic in the microwave because of chemical transfer to food, so I won't, I'll keep using glass bowls and paper towels for that, I'll be using the lids mainly in the fridge for leftovers. Yes I would recommend them to a friend.

Awkward & flimsy
These covers are a little awkward to place over ceramic bowls, glasses, or mugs. Once stretched out over the bowl or cup, the seal seems to be tight and leak proofThe 3 packages of covers are compressed tightly to each other and are a major challenge to peel off each other. One of the covers ripped while trying to separate each of the individual covers and immediately became trash.I fear that these thin, flexible covers will all rip eventually, thus defeating my efforts to reduce plastic waste vs using plastic wrap.The assortment of different sizes is a bonus, but many will not ever be used without having dishes that are compatible.On the positive side, these covers can be easily washed by hand and reused.I plan to store these all together in a one-gallon zip lock type bag. Hopefully, the bag of the various lids will not take up too much space. Still TBD.I purchased these Silicone Stretch Lids so my food and beverages that are stored in the refrigerator are not contained in plastic containers.
