Learn how to identify the correct replacement lid for your Ello Duraglass food storage container. Follow these simple steps to ensure a perfect fit and extend the life of your container.
Quick answer
To find the right replacement lid for your Ello container, check the capacity printed on the bottom of your existing container and match it to the corresponding lid model. Ello Duraglass lids are size-specific and not interchangeable between different cup capacities.
Why lid size matters
Ello Duraglass food storage containers are designed with lids that seal securely only to their matching capacity. Using the wrong lid can lead to leaks, poor sealing, and reduced freshness. Each lid model is engineered for a specific container size, so it's important to get the exact match.
Color options and availability
Replacement lids come in a variety of colors to match your style or help you organize your fridge. For example, the lid for the 3.4 Cup container is available in Dusty Lavender and Halogen Blue, while the 1.75 Cup lid comes in Cashmere Pink. The 7 Cup lid is offered in Light Gray. Choosing a color that stands out can also help you quickly identify container sizes in your stack.
Steps to find your replacement lid
- Check the container capacity: Flip your Ello Duraglass container over and look for the capacity printed on the bottom. It will say something like '3.4 Cup' or '7 Cup'. This number is the key to finding the right lid. Common mistake: assuming lids are universal. Each capacity has a unique lid.
- Match the lid model to the capacity: Search for a replacement lid that specifically lists your container's capacity in its description. For example, the 'Replacement Lid - Ello Duraglass Refresh 3.4 Cup Food Storage Container' is the correct match for a 3.4 Cup container. Checkpoint: verify the lid description includes your exact container size before purchasing.
- Choose your color: Select from available color options to either match your existing set or add a pop of color. Available colors vary by lid size, so check what's offered for your specific model.
- Order and replace: Once you have the correct lid, simply snap it onto your clean container. Ensure it clicks into place all around for a proper seal. If the lid feels loose or doesn't seal, double-check that you have the right size. Checkpoint: after replacing, do a quick water test by filling the container and tilting it slightly to check for leaks.
