I purchased this today, and I cannot get but three lids to fit. Any suggestions?

Not sure what does not fit but if the lids do not have a round handle it might be difficult to get lids to fit. And might require a custom bend if they are extra thick lids. Start from smallest to largest or largest lid to smallest lid. If all the lids are the same size and larger they may not fit.

My lids fit pretty good except for last, it fit very snug but I could put it in the rack. I would think maybe try to swap some lids around to see which lids fit better. Hope you are able to get it.

it not the product as advertised....it a bad product. Trust me...I bought it and experience the same very thing. Return it.

I'm sry you're having a problem but I don't think I can help you for I didn't have an issue. My lids of allsizes/shapes fit well. Perhaps your lids are thicker than most? Maybe you can manipulate the rack but if you do that, you may void your return if you need to do that. Again, sry I couldn't be of more help.

If your lids do not have button lids you won't get anymore to fit. You can try to bend the racks out more but they are stainless and hard to bend.

I think this rack varies very much in terms of how many lids it can hold, based off of the diameter and depth of the lid, as well as the size and height of the handle on the lid. Try putting them in a different order and you may be able to get them all to fit.

By carefully nesting the lids together, we manage to get four lids per rack. The lids with the larger handles can be paired, then we have a space in between the pairs. We have two racks on the back of our pantry door, so that's eight lids that are out of the way.

Hmmm...I wonder if your lids are unusually thick or oddly shaped. Have you put them in as the photo indicates, with the smallest on the bottom and getting larger as they go up? Are you able to post a photo of your predicament?

What I did was measure the opening on the lid, mine fell within the range of this top. Just make sure you order whichever top is within the size of your lid opening. I did have to use the metal ring that comes with it to hold it on, but I've not been sorry I ordered it.

Hmmm. I have had to use a screw driver as well, but with success. So, my only advice is to try again with the screw driver because the lid is very tight. Good luck.

Take an equally small flat head screwdriver and pop the lid with it by putting it under the edge (just a little) closest to the middle (same side as the screw hole). I just tried it, as it has been quite a while. I had to gently 'pop' it in two spots on that edge.

Just make sure the lid is placed correctly. It gets in place with just a couple of twists.

Hmm, not sure if any of these will fit a can that size. To be honest, I think you should measure the top of the can and then find a lid that would fit it. Maybe some of the bigger lids in the set would fit, but I'd measure it first. Sorry, hope this helps.

1) Hold the lid vertically upright and align the small, horizontal pins with their appropriate open connectors. 2) Press one side of the lid down EXTEMELY HARD to get the pin to snap into its connector. 3) Then repeat for the other side.

Use a piece of foil or parchment paper secured with a wide rubber band to hold it tight. They don't make lids for the canister, unfortunately.

In the past, i contacted the company and ordered more, have not done this for a few years. On occasion, they used to have promotions on the packages of 4 to get more lids. Hopefully one of these ideas will work for you.

YES, I CALLED !!! Place 2 of the flat lids on till sealed then remove the top one and you will have a tight seal. I wanted it for that reason, and was down to the last ok to buy it She I saw your question and the answers you were getting. I STOPPED RIGHT THERE, AND CALLED. I have bought mine.

I haven't see the lid by itself, but I have a feeling that if someone would contact Nordic Ware directly, I bet they could help you with a new lid. I have had great success with going direct to handle a problem. Give it a try and good luck!

You are correct, I have the same problem. It would seem that the lids don't exactly fit the bottom, as it's difficult to line them up to snap it down.

They do not all match. I think it's just a hodge-podge they include. About half of mine have the matching lid.

I have the same problem. The rubber gasket on the lid expands causing it to jam up when you try to screw it on. unfortunately they don't just sell the replacement gaskets, you have to buy a new lid.I bought a replacement lid for mine and I rotate between the two and that helps. I'll use one lid for a couple weeks until it starts getting tight and then I'll switch to the other lid. This gives the rubber gasket on the lid not in use time to shrink back down to normal size.

Mine does not fit snug, but there is no gap. You won't get the proper temperature if it doesn't fit right. There should be a rubber gasket on the edge of the lid.

Not sure if the lids are available ... but I just use the larger lids to cover the smaller fry pans .... obviously not a tight fit- but usually works for me . . . .

One of the lids will set nice on the large skillet, but does not "fit" snug. None of the lids will fit the small skillet with out hanging over the edge or falling inside the skillet.
