Mood: R U thinking what I'm thinking?......Oh dear!
Some of the more "reassuringly expensive" Lid manufacturers have kicked off as their lids have come out poorly in these tests against some less expensive competition.

I think the random buying is a great idea as this will put a stop to specially prepared products being submitted for testing.

I'd take a look at the overall rating of the lid I was going to buy but not sure how much it would affect my buying decision unless I thought the lid I was looking at was only slightly more protective than putting a pyrex bowl on me noggin.

There still seem to be a range of standards that lids can be tested to BSI, Snell, IECE?? and now sharp.

Who does the most rigerous and reliable testing?

Ray.
