Defective Lid on Trifle Bowl: Has Anyone Else Experienced This?

[ChefTS]

I got my trifle bowl Saturday (I ordered several things from the outlet and samples form on Thursday night and got them on Saturday!), and the lid doesn't fit properly.

When I took it out of the box, the lid seemed flared out along part of the edge, and when I put it on the bowl it doesn't seem to seal all of the way. I made a trifle and put the lid on as securely as possible, placed the bowl in the fridge, and barely nudged the side of the fridge and the lid just popped off.

I'm assuming this is a defective lid and I am going to call in for a replacement, but I was just wondering if anyone else has come across this problem.

No, my lid is fine.

No, mine was fine...actually fits very nice and snug! Sounds like yours is defective!

I was surprised that it didn't fit well, when I showed my husband he said, "wow, that's not up to PC's usual standards."

Definately get a replacement for it. HO should adjust it for you no problem.

You can also try putting it in hot (but not boiling) water for about 5 minutes and then putting it on the bowl while it still hot (but don't burn yourself), If it doesn't reset itself and create the seal its definitely defective. You can also use this trick with the batter/prep bowl lids.

I do this with my twixits too when they get "stretched" out.

You know, now that you mention it, my lid doesn't fit very well either.
