Clear product measurements change the choice because only some makers publish a complete set of figures. The iDesign holder states 14.75 by 3.0 by 6.25 inches and 21 eggs, the fullest set here. Dial Industries publishes 15.0 by 4.5 by 3.0 inches and 3.3 pounds, the heaviest pick. LocknLock publishes 12.6 by 4.72 by 2.95 inches and 0.55 pounds, the lightest. mDesign states 12.25 by 4.25 by 3.0 inches. Newness publishes 13.1 by 8.5 by 2.16 inches for a two-container set holding 48 eggs.

Priorities, not a computed score. The inputs are published specifications, so we rank by what matters most and say how much.
Three of the five publish a complete set of length, width and height. The iDesign holder states 14.75 by 3.0 by 6.25 inches. The Dial Industries holder states 15.0 by 4.5 by 3.0 inches. The LocknLock holder states 12.6 by 4.72 by 2.95 inches. The mDesign tray states 12.25 by 4.25 by 3.0 inches. The Newness set states 13.1 by 8.5 by 2.16 inches for the pair.
Weight is published for three of the five. LocknLock gives 0.55 pounds, the lightest of the picks. mDesign gives 0.75 pounds. Dial Industries gives 3.3 pounds, the heaviest. iDesign and Newness publish no weight, so the manufacturer does not publish it. Capacities run from 12 eggs to 48 eggs across the set.

The table does not tell you whether any of these fit your shelf. It reports what each maker states, and nothing about how an egg sits in a slot or how a lid closes. Two listings leave weight blank, and one leaves the feature list empty, so the comparison is uneven by nature.
The iDesign holder is the one to start with if you want a full set of figures. It publishes 14.75 inches in length, 3.0 inches in width and 6.25 inches in height, and states a 21 egg capacity in individual slots. The clear lid is described as allowing stacking, and a built-in handle is described for sliding the tray in and out.
The maker does not publish a weight, so that figure is missing from an otherwise complete listing. The 6.25 inch height is the largest among the five picks, which matters if the shelf above is fixed. Cleaning is by hand with mild soap and water, and the maker states it should not go in the dishwasher.
The Dial Industries holder publishes 15.0 inches in length, 4.5 inches in width and 3.0 inches in height, and adds a weight of 3.3 pounds. That weight is the heaviest of the five. The listing describes a strong cover for protection and stacking, plus a handle for handling.
The published text also gives a size line reading 4.5 by 15 by 3 inches, which matches the dimension fields in a different order. The capacity is 14 eggs. The maker states a one year defect warranty and BPA free construction. No depth figure is published separately from the three stated dimensions.
LocknLock publishes 12.6 by 4.72 by 2.95 inches and a weight of 0.55 pounds, the lightest of the five. The listing states the holder is suitable for the microwave, dishwasher and freezer, which none of the others state. It holds 12 eggs and is described as space saving inside the refrigerator.
The mDesign tray publishes 12.25 by 4.25 by 3.0 inches and 0.75 pounds, and is sold as a stackable covered tray with a lid and handle for 12 eggs. Its feature list is empty on the sheet, so no cleaning instruction or material claim is stated. The dimensions and weight are the whole of what the maker publishes.
The Newness set publishes 13.1 by 8.5 by 2.16 inches for the pair of containers, with a stated total of 48 eggs across two trays of 24. The 2.16 inch height is the smallest among the five picks, and the 8.5 inch width is the largest. A handle and an extended buckle are described for transport.
No weight is published for the set. The maker describes food grade PP plastic, BPA free construction and dishwasher safe cleaning. The trays are described as designed for deviled eggs as well as whole eggs, which is a use the other four do not mention. The pair is the largest capacity of the five at 48 eggs.
Buyer who plans before ordering. Start with the iDesign holder. It publishes all three dimensions and a 21 egg capacity, so you can check the shelf before you buy. Accept that weight is not published.
Buyer who wants a stated weight. The Dial Industries tray gives 3.3 pounds and three dimensions. The LocknLock holder gives 0.55 pounds and three dimensions. Both let you judge load as well as fit.
Buyer with a shallow shelf. The Newness set states 2.16 inches in height, and the LocknLock holder states 2.95 inches. Check those figures against the gap above the shelf before ordering either.
Buyer storing a dozen eggs. The mDesign tray and the LocknLock holder both hold 12 eggs. The mDesign tray publishes 12.25 by 4.25 by 3.0 inches and 0.75 pounds, but no feature text.
Buyer serving deviled eggs. The Newness set is the only one of the five whose published features mention deviled eggs, with two lidded trays and a handle for carrying them to a table.
The listings leave several figures blank, and no estimate is offered for any of them.
Capacity tells you how many eggs fit. Measurements tell you whether the holder fits the shelf, the drawer or the door bin you have in mind. A maker that publishes length, width and height lets you check the space before buying. A maker that publishes only a capacity leaves that check to you after delivery.
The iDesign holder publishes length, width and height, at 14.75 by 3.0 by 6.25 inches, plus a 21 egg capacity. The Dial Industries holder publishes the same three dimensions plus a weight of 3.3 pounds. The LocknLock holder publishes all three dimensions plus 0.55 pounds. The mDesign tray publishes all three dimensions plus 0.75 pounds.
The Newness set publishes 13.1 by 8.5 by 2.16 inches for the pair of containers, and states a total of 48 eggs across two trays of 24. The maker does not publish a weight. The 2.16 inch height is the figure to check if you plan to stack anything on top.
Four of the five describe stacking. The iDesign holder states a clear lid that allows stacking. The Dial Industries holder includes a cover that enables stacking. The Newness set describes stackable trays. The mDesign tray is sold as stackable. The LocknLock holder does not mention stacking in its published features.
The LocknLock holder is listed as suitable for the dishwasher, microwave and freezer. The Newness set is described as dishwasher safe. The iDesign and Dial Industries holders are hand wash only. The mDesign listing publishes no feature text, so no cleaning instruction is stated for it.
The iDesign and Newness listings leave weight blank, and the mDesign listing leaves it blank too. In those cases the manufacturer does not publish the figure, and no estimate is offered here. Use the published length, width and height to judge whether the holder suits your shelf.
