Hover Cover is a microwave-ready splatter guard designed to keep your microwave clean. Here’s our Hover Cover review.
What Is Hover Cover?
Hover Cover is an As Seen On TV product priced at around $25 per unit. The plastic cover fits above a plate of food, preventing it from splattering when it’s heated up. The plastic is microwave-safe.
What’s the difference between the Hover Cover and the cheap plastic covers you can buy from any housewares store? Hover Cover has a special technology that lets it “hover” in your microwave.
That technology is a set of four magnets on the top of the cover. When you’re not heating food, or when you’re cooking food that doesn’t require the hover cover, you can lift the cover to the top of the microwave and leave it. The magnets stick to the top of the microwave, letting you safely pull your food out.
The Hover Cover is designed to save time in the kitchen. Instead of spending several seconds pulling your microwave cover out of the microwave and placing it on your counter, you can just lift it up off your dish. The Hover Cover will store on the ceiling of your microwave when not in use.

Hover Cover Pricing
Hover Cover, like other ASOTV products, comes with a confusing pricing policy. It’s impossible to order just one Hover Cover from the official website. The company only offers a double package. The second one is advertised as being “free” – but it adds $5 onto your total cost. Here’s how pricing breaks down:
- 2 Hover Covers: $24.97 ($14.99 + $9.98 Shipping)
- 4 Hover Covers: $49.94
- 6 Hover Covers: $74.91
You can upgrade your order to “Deluxe” by adding $5 more per Hover Cover. Deluxe gets you stronger magnets, an anti-slip grip, and a 2 year extended warranty.
The Hover Cover is only available in the United States and Canada. You can exclusively purchase it online through BuyHoverCover.com.
All purchases come with a money back guarantee, although you’ll never receive a refund on your shipping costs. You’ll also need to pay for your own return shipping. By the time you get your refund, you’ll only end up a few dollars ahead.
To request a refund, call 866-518-2290.
There’s some important fine print on the pricing policy. State tax will be added to orders placed in NY, CT, CA, and NV. A $10 surcharge is added to orders from Canada, Guam, Puerto Rico, Hawaii, US Virgin Islands, and Alaska. Hover Cover cannot be shipped to Quebec.

Hover Cover Review Summary
Hover Cover is a product that solves a niche problem in your house. You have a microwave, and you need to microwave food – but you’re sick of food splattering all over the interior of your microwave. Plastic microwave covers can be found for $5 to $10 – but they’re inconvenient because they need to be removed from your microwave after each use.
Hover Cover solves that problem by adding plastic, microwave-safe magnets to the top of the Hover Cover lid. You can slip the lid against the top of your microwave when not in use, letting you easily pull the food out from underneath.
The Hover Cover is priced at $25 for a set of two (you can’t order just one). It’s up to you to decide if the convenience of Hover Cover is worth the price.
