Cheap Amico Kitchen Replacement Cookware Pot Lid Cover Knob Handle

Customer Ratings:

This looked like the perfect solution for replacing the previous cracked Plastic lid Handle but it may be a health hazard now. At first I did not notice anything peculiar....it was during the over night cooking of collards that I notices a mysterious red stain in a vent indention of the crock pot. This had me wondering. It was not until I cooked soup and later squash that I noticed where the red stain was coming from. Apparently the screw used to tighten the handle down is seeping a chemical or rust. You may want to avoid purchasing this item or get it yourself and look at the the screw head after a cooking session.

Fast delivery and great replacement knob. I wish it came in white though. However, this is well made and safer than the original knob/handle that came on my crock-pot.

Thank you.

Best Deals for Amico Kitchen Replacement Cookware Pot Lid Cover Knob Handle

Instead of buying a new lid I bought the replacement handle. Product arrived within the time frame posted & works beautifully. One drawback is that it is difficult to get the screw to thread into the handle. It's very small & took us 20 minutes to do. But other than that it does the job it's intended to do.

Honest reviews on Amico Kitchen Replacement Cookware Pot Lid Cover Knob Handle

The handle will work, but with the following potential issues:

1. The screw may or may not work. I was able to make it work with my Rival crockpot lid, but it took some gentle coersion to make it work.

2. There is no seal for the screw. After the first use, there was a lot of condensate that got collected between the thin metal plate and the glass lid. Also the screw rusted severely after the first use. I had to remove teh handle from the lid in order to clean all the condensed liquid from a pot of chili and make sure it was sanitary.

I tried installing it without the thin metal plate didn't work very well. So being a nerd, I filled the void area between the glass and the silver plate with high temperature silicone to seal it and keep the steam from whatever I am cooking from getting trapped in that void space and becoming a health hazard. I also took time to visit several big box hardware stores and find a stainless steel version of the screw. Now it doesn't rust.

For all the trouble I went to, I could have just fabricated a home-made version of a handle and skipped buying this.....

We used the stainless steel screw and washer from our broken knob to attach this new knob. Initially it worked well. After about 3 meals, we were surprised as we started noticing a rusty colored liquid that dripped onto our food from the knob. Turns out, it's not just the screw that rusts. My point here, which I hope is helpful, is that even if you replace the accompanying screw with one made of stainless steel, the inner threads on the knob will still rust and metallic nastiness will seep through the threads and find its way into your food. No bueno.
