It looks like a very nice lid. Attractive. well-made, and came very well packed.
Unfortunately, even though the listing says "Fits standard Lodge 12 inch dia pans," it does not. We made the "mistake" of buying the Lodge P12S3 cast iron skillet, and the lid rides on TOP of the skillet rim, not down in the skillet. We bought a 10" model, and the same thing occurs for the 10" model. I don't know what Lodge considers "standard Lodge 12 inch dia pans," but it is surely not the 12" skillet that we ordered and received. This is probably more of a criticism of Amazon and their listing than the product, but we unfortunately don't have a skillet that it DOES fit, so we have no way to tell. We have been very happy with Lodge skillets over the years.
Update:
We bought "Lodge Pro-Logic Pre-Seasoned 10-Inch Skillet" Model P10S3. We bought cover GC10 because it says that it "Fits standard Lodge 10.25 inch dia pans." It doesn't fit.

Poking around the Lodge website, I find
P10S3Skillet, 10" dia.P10L3Cover, 10" dia.
P12S3Skillet, 12 dia.P12L3Cover, 12" dia.
I did not see images of the covers or information about whether they are oven safe or not.
Amazon apparently does not carry the lids for the skillets that we bought.
But onmodels are not listed, either, so one must do some more research just to find what covers fit which skillets.
I selected the L?SK3 series, but no covers were listed.
Further poking got me to glass covers here
Lodge Glass Cover, 10 1/4" dia. Fits L8SK3, L8CF3, L8DSK3, L8DO3, L8DOL3, LCC3 and L8DD3
Lodge Glass Cover, 12" dia. Fits L10SK3, L10DSK3, L10DO3, L10CF3 and L10DOL3
...and at last I know which covers go with which skillets.
I also prefer a lid with a loop handle because it is easier to hang. With the knob on top, storing the cover will not be as easy.
Everything I hoped for except it seems to be so light weight (a plus to some people) I wonder if it will hold up to frequent, extended use.
It is great to be able to use my cast iron skillet with a see through lid.
Buy Lodge Tempered Glass Lids Now
I bought this lid along with a cast iron lid for my skillets.I use this lid when cooking something I need to keep a close eye on so I don't have to keep picking up the lid as I would with the cast iron lid.The lid is built with metal ring around the edge to prevent chipping and provide for a good fit.It fits the skillet perfectly.Nice and light which is a benefit over the cast iron lid.It is rated to use in the oven (to a certain temp), however when using the pan in the oven, I use the cast iron lid.The only downside I can note is that the glass lid is made in China vs the cast iron lid (and skillets) being made in the USA.This may or may not be an issue for you but other posters had mentioned it so I'm throwing it in.

This is an excellent lid.I like stainless steel around the edges of the lid. This keeps the lid edges from chipping or cracking. I am using this lid for pan made by another vendor. The original lid for this pan was a Pyrex glass lid without the stainless steel edges and it cracked around the edges. This is the way to go if you need a glass lid at this size.

Very cheaply made.I had to get rid of them because the non-stick coating started to peel.Save your money and get something else.
