Carlisle changed production of this product from made in USA to Mexico. They used to be the best, now they arrived warped right out of the box new and don't fit well. Thanks Carlisle for outsourcing, I'll be switching to Cambro.

Unfortunately these lids have been changed from the original light blue. This is a harder, thicker, more rigid plastic which warps when exposed to cold such as that of a standard refrigerator / cooler. If you pull out food items such as butter, mayo based salads etc. for distribution the lid will immediately warp. If you use a room temp cover it will work ok, Big disappointment.

The Carlisle 3058260 Smart Lid 1/6 Size Soft Food Pan Cover is a well made product that appears like it would work great, but definitely recommend fully reading the product description on this website. The only issue is that it appears to only fit Carlisle Pan’s, as noted in the product description on the website. I still rated it 5 stars as the product clearly states it in the product description, I just need to read more carefully.

Carlisle Smart Lid 1/3 Size Soft Food Pan Cover does not fit well on the Carlisle StorPlus 1/3 clear food pan. It is a pain to get on.

These lids fit very tightly around the 1/3 pans. We bought matching Carlisle 1/3 pans to go with these. Sometimes they can be a bit fickle and require 2 handed operation to get the lid to snap in place. Overall we are very satisfied with these and will be ordering only carlisle pans and lids moving foward. They are also a strong support for stacking pans in the walk in cooler.

A food pan is only good for storage if you happen to have the correct lid for the pan. This one fits well and protects the food inside.

Simple cover that works well. Make sure its for a Carlisle and not a Cambro pan cause they don't interchange with each other. Price is good and to keep shipping low, add to an existing order.

This is a great lid. We had ordered rubbermaid lids from this site to go with the generic 1/9 pans and those were not universal. These Carlisle lids fit all of the various brands of 1/9 pans we've acquired over the years. Seems pretty universal. Tight seal, keeps things fresh. We use specifically with raw shrimp, soft shell crab, scallops etc. If they fall over in the fridge, nothing spills.

Lids were recommended by webstaurant for the polycarbonate full size hotel pans and they don't fit! They were marketed to be airtight seal but they just lay on top!

Thank you for the review, Robert! We're sorry these didn't work for you. As shown in the Compatible Models section, these lids are made to fit with Carlisle pans. These are not universal and we cannot guarantee that these will work on pans of another brand.

The Carlisle 10212B60 Full Size Smart Lid Soft Food Pan Cover is a great product. We use it to cover our line at night. rather than using individual covers using the 3 full pan covers we can cover our line items without needing lots of lids

THESE ARE THE MOST USEFUL THINGS EVER!! We use these covers to quickly seal and store everything from our sandwich prep station. We even leave the lids as covers while they are in use. Make sure you get the correct Food Pan as it only works with the Carlisle pans. It also has a nice finger slot to open it easier.

The cover works great we put those on our cambros and it seals the food inside. Our other option is to put plastic wrap in the long run this provides a better seal and saves money in the long run.

These lids are great for stacking lots of pans or sealing pans overnight, and they're very thick and durable, but otherwise they're not so great. They're very hard to get on and off the pans, and they don't seal nearly as well as that would suggest. They aren't air or water tight, and if you keep something liquid in your pan, such as pepperoncinis in their brine, it's very easy to find you've made a bit of a mess when you knock one over on accident. My mom has 30yr old plasticware that does a better job of sealing than these, although not suitable for restaurant use.

Thank you for your review, Peter. We are sorry you did not like the lid. Please reference these Smart Lid Instructions to ensure your lid makes a proper seal.

Best lids on the market for the Carlisle containers. I like these better than the cambro design (although both are decent). Where the cambro design snaps onto the outsides of the containers, these ones sit inside the container. I found these to be better for holding liquids in and the soft design is nice. The only downside is that the cost of the lids are about 1/2 of what the actual container costs, but it's well worth it in the long run because of the amount of food you won't spill and make a mess everywhere.
