I just received the two I ordered. One is in perfect shape but one has a lid so tight I can’t get it off. Does anyone have any tips on how to pry the lid open? I really would like to avoid the hassle of returning it and can’t exchange because they are sold out. Any help would be appreciated. It would be nice to have two functioning pie carriers. Sigh.

 

@verone - Make sure all the tabs are unlocked and then try to gently insert the tip of a butter knife in/under the seam where the lid is attached and wiggle it slightly; the goal is to release the vacuum that can occur due to changes in temperature in transit. You just need the silicone seal to separate from the rim of the base enough to pull the lid away. And once you get the lid off the first time, you shouldn't have any future issues.

 

Good luck!

I bought one of these!  I thought it was a good deal too.
