The Gracenal 10-inch Microwave Splatter Cover serves a dual purpose as both a splash guard and an atmospheric steamer. It is constructed from high-clarity polycarbonate, a material that offers significantly higher thermal resistance—up to 392°F—than standard polypropylene. This rigidity helps the cover maintain its shape even during longer microwave cycles where cheaper covers might warp.
A standout feature is the integrated water storage box. When filled, this reservoir releases moisture into the dome, creating a steaming effect that helps prevent starches like rice or pasta from drying out. The top-mounted handle is designed to remain cool to the touch, providing a safe way to remove the lid without a towel. Because of the weight of the water reservoir, this model does not feature a magnetic ceiling-attach function.
Maintenance involves managing mineral scale in the small water box, especially in areas with hard water. To preserve the clarity of the polycarbonate and the integrity of the seals, top-rack dishwasher cleaning is the preferred method. The 3.5-inch height is a practical specification that prevents the cover from touching the food on most standard dinner plates.
If you prefer a simpler, lighter splatter guard without the steaming reservoir, the Fkprorjv 12-inch Cover offers a larger footprint.
