I just got one, and the protective cover does not fit on as snugly as the cover for the apple wedger,..is that the way it's supposed to be?
PA wedger cover doesn't stay on at all!

Thanks!

It should fit. Mine was loose and before I knew it wasn't dishwasher safe, I put it in. It now fits more snuggly. I would give it a try.
 
It's NOT dishwasher safe? Oops. Mine does fit better since I ran it through the dishwasher.
 
HO said to run it through the dishwasher to tighten it. That is, run the lid through the DW.
 
Mine didn't stay on at all. I put it through the dishwasher one time and now it fits well.
 
If you don't have a dishwasher, put it in boiling water. I did this with my chopper lid, and it fits nicely again!
 
oops! sorry the lid is dishwasher safe. Spreading rumors again.
