$8.99
Product Overview
The Microwave Splatter Cover Vented for Food is a thoughtfully designed kitchen essential that brings convenience, safety, and cleanliness to everyday cooking. Crafted from high-grade PP+TPR thermoplastic rubber combined with durable hard rubber components, this cover meets strict BPA-free standards, ensuring it’s safe for repeated use in both microwave ovens and dishwashers. Its collapsible structure adapts seamlessly to different container heights—expanding up to 3 inches to cover tall mugs or deep bowls, or folding down to just 0.75 inches for shallow plates—offering flexible protection without compromising on storage space. Whether you’re reheating last night’s pasta, steaming vegetables, or preparing fresh produce, this splatter guard keeps your microwave interior spotless by containing messy spills and reducing the need for frequent cleaning.
Beyond its core function as a microwave lid, this product doubles as a practical colander thanks to its strategically perforated surface. This feature allows water to drain freely when rinsing fruits, vegetables, or leafy greens directly over the sink—eliminating the need for an extra bowl and saving time during meal prep. The integrated hook holes not only support wall mounting or drawer storage but also enhance portability, making it easy to carry from countertop to tabletop when serving. With its lightweight build and intuitive design, this gadget is ideal for busy households, college dorms, or anyone looking to optimize kitchen workflow without sacrificing hygiene or efficiency.
Key Features
- High-Quality Materials: Made with premium PP+TPR thermoplastic rubber and hard rubber components, this cover is rigorously tested to be BPA-Free, non-toxic, and resistant to warping or cracking under heat. It withstands regular microwave and dishwasher cycles without releasing harmful chemicals, ensuring long-term reliability and peace of mind.
- Fully Foldable Design: Engineered for versatility, the lid adjusts from a compact 0.75-inch folded state to a full 3-inch height, accommodating everything from shallow saucers to taller soup bowls. When not in use, it collapses flat, maximizing storage flexibility in tight spaces like apartments or small kitchens.
- Ventilation Holes for Safe Heating: Multiple air vents allow excess steam to escape during microwaving, preventing pressure buildup while promoting even heat distribution. This reduces the risk of boiling over, saves energy, and minimizes post-heat cleanup—ideal for soups, sauces, and moist dishes.
- Multipurpose Functionality: In addition to shielding food from splatters, the perforated base transforms the cover into a functional colander. Simply place it over the sink and rinse produce directly through the holes, then lift and drain with ease—streamlining both cooking and cleanup routines.
- Space-Saving Storage Solutions: The newly designed hook holes enable vertical hanging on hooks, pegboards, or inside cabinets, keeping counters clear and enhancing kitchen organization. This smart design ensures the cover is always within reach yet out of the way when not needed.

Benefits & Use Cases
This microwave splatter cover is engineered for modern home cooks who value both functionality and cleanliness. Its vented construction ensures that foods like creamy risottos, tomato-based sauces, or boiled eggs reheat evenly without creating a mess, significantly cutting down on scrubbing time after each use. The foldable mechanism means it fits securely over a wide variety of plate sizes—from individual portion dishes to family-sized platters—without sliding off during rotation. For those who frequently prepare fresh ingredients, the built-in drainage capability turns the cover into a convenient prepping tool: simply fill it with cold water, add your herbs or salad greens, swirl gently, and let excess water drip away before transferring to a bowl.
Students living in dorm rooms, couples sharing small kitchens, or anyone managing limited counter space will appreciate how this gadget consolidates multiple tasks into one compact solution. It eliminates the need for separate lids, strainers, or makeshift covers, all while maintaining a hygienic barrier between raw produce and your microwave interior. Users report consistent satisfaction with its sturdiness and cost-effectiveness, though some note that extremely wide or oddly shaped containers may require careful positioning to ensure full coverage. As a versatile, eco-conscious alternative to disposable plastic wrap or paper towels, this cover supports sustainable kitchen practices by reducing waste and extending the usability of everyday cookware.
Important Notes
- The product includes only one microwave splatter cover per pack; no additional accessories are provided.
- While widely praised for its durability and practicality, compatibility may vary slightly depending on the depth, diameter, or shape of specific dishes—users are advised to measure their containers against the adjustable height range for optimal fit.
- Never use with metal containers, aluminum foil, or metallic-trim lids, as these can cause arcing and damage both the cover and microwave.
- Although designed for repeated dishwasher cycles, prolonged exposure to extreme temperatures may affect longevity over many years of heavy use.

Smartest design
This is a must to maintain a clean microwave. Zero odor easy to clean, vented to all maximum efficiency. Folds flat when not in use. Built out of a durable pliable material that will last for years. Fits the standard dinner plate.

Should have bought this MUCH sooner
This works great. It is easy to use, easy to clean and easy to store. It is large enough to fit over our plates and other microwave-safe dishes. Only one disappointment — it has a lot fewer ventilation holes than the old, plastic colander that we used for decades. The numbered auto-programs on our larger, Sharp Microwave donât work as well with this new cover as they did with the old colander. This is particularly noticeable on the omelette setting. The omelettes came out wonderfully moist and fluffy before, but they come out dry and leathery with this cover. I think it is because the sensors adjust the cooking power based on measurements of the moisture in the air. Less steam reaches the sensors when using this cover. For other dishes this works great — just not for omelettes.

Simple cover that does the job
Keeps spatter off the microwave and goes right in the dishwasher. Good buy.

Works great
This works great. We have a few dishes that it doesnât fully cover, but it definitely prevents the splatter. I like that is foldable so we can store it in a drawer conveniently when weâre not using it. It doesnât get too hot after use either so itâs easy to grab fresh from the microwave.

Great Product, Especially for the Price
My dishwasher water runs hot (accidentally partially melted a cottage cheese container once), so I was skeptical about the “dishwasher-safe” marketing, but this splatter cover held up perfectly! It’s collapsible for easy storage and BPA-free silicon is always a positive.

Food Cover
It works. It fits my microwave. It was cheap and got it fast.

Works fine
This works fine, helps keep splatter down fine. My biggest complaint is taking it in/out of the microwave. There are finger grips at the top of the lid, but the way it’s configured, it’s not easy to get ahold of.
