A bit easier to clean than the aluminum ones but also slightly wider. The bastion is only 2" tall with the knob adding an extra inch.

Great mostly. The handles did eventually melt due to our grill temp, but we were able to replace them. For the price they are worth it, but know that eventually the handles will probably melt.

We bought two of these to use on our griddle to melt cheese on burgers and grilled cheese sandwiches. Very durable and the sandwiches fit nicely under it.

I have owned 6inch American metalcraft basting cover, and I just had to get the bigger version. This saves so much time during service and does the job every single time.

This stainless steel basting cover is the perfect size for the small griddles that I use in my cafe. It allows me to melt cheese or quickly heat up veggies for an order. I definitely recommend this product to everyone!

We use these for the flat grill. They make a great cover for melting harder cheeses like cheddars onto burgers, and it works like a charm. It's a versatile little item.

These steel basting covers are amazing and a must have for every griddle/ flattop cooking. I use these to melt cheese or to steam up veggies on the evo grill. Just the perfect size to cook for a small to medium batch. The handles do not get hot that easy. I recommend this product.

These are perfect! We use these primarily to melt cheese on top of our burgers and eggs. The basting cover fits snugly around our sandwiches without taking up any unnecessary room on our griddle. The plastic handle is great for handling and does not overheat. We wash these in a commercial high-heat dishwasher every weekend and they keep their shine nicely.

I love that the Basting Cover came in a smaller size. It makes it easier for me to use while cooking with my small cast iron pan. I love using the cover to keep food warm while it's still in the pan and it's awesome for melting cheese on burgers and sandwiches.

We bought these to use as covers for our electric griddle in order to melt cheese or help steam items. They were very good at first but durability isn’t great. They broke down after a few months and the handle screw failed. They would be great for low heat or low volume applications.

This basting cover does exactly what it needs to. Several months after use, the handle is attached firmly. There's been no shape change. It cleans pretty well.

These basting covers are very well made and sturdy built. If these sit on a hot grill for too long the handles do not get hot or melt. The stainless steel is very easy to clean. Will definitely purchase again!

this dome lid is perfect for melting cheese on a burger, speeding up the grilling process of onions, and any other purpose on our flat top grill. The handle doesn't 100% screw on tightly, but by no means is it falling off.

A few of these worked well, a few of these became warped right away and wouldnt create a very good seal to really get the steam working... Might want to order a couple extra just to make sure!

These dome covers are great. We use them for melting cheese over burgers and grilled cheese sandwiches. High quality thick gauge metal makes for a long life. Only complaint is that the nob on top comes loose often, we lost a few of the tops.

Great stainless steel basting cover! We use it to steam food and melt cheese on our flat top griddle. The biggest advantage of stainless steel over the aluminum ones is that they stay cleaner and are much easier to clean when they get dirty.

We use these domes to melt cheese on our big 10oz burgers. They have held up well with over a years worth of use and abuse from the kitchen staff.
