Does the lid fit snug and does it stay on during wind?

The lid fits in place well, and we have yet to see winds move it, so you may be safe. We really like the design.

No, Lid does not fit snug, but does not blow off. Easy to remove and replace.

The lid doesn't latch or anything but we have had ours for just shy of a year and the lid has never blown off. Some water has gotten in but I live in Washington so rain is prevalent. I am very happy with this purchase and would buy it again!

Neither actually. The lids are tight fitting, fairly easy to take off but will stay on if it's knocked over.

Not at all. The lid fits snuggly but there is a little lip on the side of the lid that makes it easy to pop off.

yes it does. I don't use it that often with the elastic base the cover stays put even in high winds

I have an earlier model with the same cover. I've dropped it several time while it was filled. Usually the lid stays on. +1 for a tight lid!

Sorry to be so long in getting back to you - Yes there is a buckle on the bottom of the cover to keep the cover from blowing away. We had some high winds here 25+ miles an hour and the cycle was knocked over by the wind but the cover did not come off. I hope this answers your question.

The lid removes easily. I would give it a "moderate" on wind. The flame is powerful, and not blown out easily.

Nope, its pretty snug when you place it in, but also easy to remove with your fingers. The lid is externally threaded and this sits in the inside, so the lid is able to screw down all the way with no issues. I hope this helps!

No, the cover does not close at the bottom, but we have had no problem even with pretty high winds. It is a great grill cover and looks so nice.

So far, so good! We've had a couple pretty windy spring storms and the lid has remained intact. However, it probably would be prudent to weight the lid or bungee cord it if you will have the sandbox in a location where it will be exposed to strong winds.

The lid pulls off. It fits firmly and pulls off easily. I love it. there is a tight seal yet I can pull off the lid with arthritic hands.

No specific latch. The lid sort of snaps down when you shut it. Not tightly, but it does appear to have a little bit of a lip that it slides past to keep it shut. It's easy to open when you use it, however. I've never had a problem with it opening in the wind or anything.

Hello, mine is snug as it has the two latches which sorta snap into place. When I hold it and carry it around it doesn't shake. Hope this helps. Make sure your air filter isn't too big or it might prevent lid from closing completely if you're not using bag filter.

The lid fits fairly tight but it is not air tight. I have gone thru three large bags of coffee so far and have not had a problem with it staying fresh. I think Robert B. Whyte summed it up best.

No - It doesn't fit snugly. If you push the lid in place as shown in the photo and then turn everything upside-down the lid will fall off.

It fits snug. It doesn't come apart until the bottom is pulled away from the top. Dawn

As long as you push the lid into groove, it stays on very tight. I am very pleased with mine. I got them about 6-7 months and had no problem.
